The Manchester Campaign for Comprehensive Education is launching a petition in support of the Manchester City Council. We reprint the text heres ,

"We, the undersigned, being electors of: the City of Manchester, wish

to inform the Secretary of State for Education and Science of our

wholehearted support for the proposals of the Manchester City

Council for the reorganisation of secondary education in Manchester

along comprehensive lines,"

Manchester readers should obtain their copies of this petition from: Gampaign for Comprehensive Education, 24la, Dickenson Road, Manchester, 13. Editorial Note: This initiative that has been taken in Manchester points «the way for readers in other tows where a similar situation may arise. The pressures which have been brought to bear in Manchester are not merely local, and if a more just education system is « ever to exist nationally, socialists will have to fight for it.
