Party News. (1940)

Party News from the March 1940 issue of the Socialist Standard

Our Sixpenny Stunt.

Our “sixpenny stunt” is still in operation. All you have to do is to send a sixpenny postal order to the Literature Secretary, 42, Great Dover Street, together with the address of an interested sympathiser, and we will send him or her the Socialist Standard for three consecutive months. A brief note will accompany the first month’s copy. At the expiration of the three months we shall write again, inviting the new reader to become a subscriber and to read our other published literature.

Appeal for Donations.

Elsewhere in this issue is an article which records the Party’s intensive propaganda campaign since the outbreak of war. This effort must not only be continued, but must be extended in the coming months. Up to the time of writing London meetings have not had to be financed out of the Party’s general funds. This, of course, is due to the splendid response of audiences, who have given generously.

We are certain that the success achieved in London can be repeated in the Provinces. Our Provincial branches and groups are clamouring for speakers, and if we are to meet their wishes, money must be forthcoming to finance a scheme for sending out propagandists.

Members and sympathisers will render the Party a great service by sending us a practical token of their sympathy—a donation !

Please do not delay.
