Going abroad?

(29 March 1969)


Letters, Socialist Worker, No. 115, 29 March 1969, pp. 2 & 3.
Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for the Encyclopaedia of Trotskyism On-Line (ETOL).


A HOLIDAY abroad need not necessarily be an escape from the class struggle; it may be a very useful way of meeting and discussing with socialists from different countries.

One particularly useful way of making contacts with socialists from a number of countries is at international student work camps

If possible, take a small supply of International Socialist literature with you – some sample copies of Socialist Worker and International Socialism and some IS pamphlets.

Most large towns on the continent contain some small bookshops specialising in Left-wing literature. Try to persuade them to take one or two copies of International Socialism and display it for sale.

Please let us know where you are going before you go, and let us have any useful information picked up, or addresses of contacts when you get back. Write to Edward Crawford, 25 Randolph Crescent, London, W9 (phone 01-CUN36 20).
