Answers to Correspondents: Why not a weekly “Socialist Standard” ?

Letter to the Editors from the July 1938 issue of the Socialist Standard

Why not a weekly “Socialist Standard” ?

Mr, F. Smith (Finsbury Park) asks why we do not publish The Socialist Standard weekly. We would like to, but it is impossible with our present resources. Having no paid writers and speakers, the S.P.G.B. has to carry on all its propaganda activities through the voluntary work of members in their spare time. It is quite out of the question to publish a weekly journal in that way. When we have the resources, only to be got through more members, we shall not be content with a weekly, but shall want a daily, the first Socialist daily to be published in Great Britain.
Ed. Comm.
