Brief Notes on some of the SPGB speakers listed:

J. W. Strickett was John William Strickett who was a member of both East London and Stepney branches of the SPGB. He joined the SPGB in July 1929, lapsing at some point, and then rejoining for a brief period in 1938, only to be lapsed a year later. ("loss of interest").

He was related to a Henry Strickett who was a member of Tottenham Branch during the First World War. (Possibly his father?)

W. Howard was a member of the Hackney Branch of the SPGB. His membership spanned the years 1912-1944, previously being a member of the old Social Democratic Federation. His obituary was carried in the September 1944 issue of the Socialist Standard.
