Party News from the October 1958 issue of the Socialist Standard
The Party needs money for many things, but one of the most pressing problems facing the Party today is the state of the Parliamentary Fund. At the moment, it amounts to £68 odd. That, as you will appreciate, is but a drop in the ocean. We need money for this Fund and we need it quickly. The present Government is nearing its end and may at any time announce its dissolution.
We are contesting the Bethnal Green constituency; the candidate has been appointed and Hackney branch is proceeding with plans for indoor meetings in the autumn.
We need £500 immediately. The donations of members and sympathisers are our mainstay and we ask you to give generously and quickly so that this effort can be a worthwhile one.
Send your donations to the Treasurer, 52, Clapham High Street, London, S.W.4.

If you are ever wondering why I post the fund appeal posts from yesteryear on the blog, it's not just because I like to pad out the post count on the blog (though that's nice) it's also because I like to remind readers of the blog that for the majority of its history the SPGB has been skint.
