The success of the Scottish conference for solidarity and peace in Vietnam (reported in this issue) proves clearly that nothing is lost by taking a firm principled stand on Vietnam. We venture to say that the number of delegates, width of support and the enthusiasm of the meeting was due to this firmness. Those who oppose solidarity in the name of "broadness" and non-sectarianism should ponder on this. Their views, while sincerely held, are not borne out in practice. This makes it all the more the pity that attempts to have serious discussion on the tactics af the struggle against the war in Vietnam have not been successful. We hope that 1967 will see such a discussion. Only those who are not sure of the strength of their arguments will avoid this.
