sector of the engineering industry; the chaining of wages by long-term agreements; the powerful amalgamation of the employers’ organisations; the fact that only 5% of the 2,500,000 workers in the engineering industry participates in Union aotivities—all these and many other problems have created pressure for a Voice of the Engineers. This will be one more in the chain of Voice papers which already includes Voice of the Unions, Ford Workers Voice, Aviation Voice, Steelworkers’ Voice, Dockers’ Voice, etc. Plans to launch the new paper will be discussed at a meeting to be held on Sunday, 28th February, at 11 a.m. in the Wheatsheaf Hotel, High St., off Market St., Manchester. Further details can be obtained from Voice of the Unions, 71 New Kings Road, London, S.W.6.
