Get set for LPYS

by Bruce THE conference of the Labour Party Young Socialists starts on April 1'- only a couple of months off. Resolutions have already been submitted, and it's time for your YS to start thinking about raising money to pay for comrades' travel and accommodation.

Class Fighter is organising accommodations as cheaply as we can, and needs to know as soon as possible how many people want to stay with us.

This year a YS which had more than 25 members on December-31 can have two delegates, providing a letter of confirmation from the Constituency Labour Party secretary reaches Labour Party headquarters at Walworth Road by January 28.

Class Fighter is supporting Pete Cashman from Wallasey YS for the YS seat on the Labour Party National Executive Committee, and nominations have to be in by February 18 (the same day as amendments). The closing date for notification of delegates is March 4, and the YS office refuses to be flexible this year, so don't miss the deadline.

CF wants to make a big impact at conference. Last year there were over 100 people at our 'What is Class Fighter' fringe meeting. This year we can do even better, if we have enough helpers to sell the paper and pamplets and to discuss with comrades.

It is important also that this conference very large, to show the witchhunters that the YS isn't going to be easy to dismantie. So make sure your YS is there in force.

YS regional conferences are also happening around now.. Comrades should have contacted others in their regions to prepare leaflets, amendments, and nominations for the YS National Committee.

If it's nossible, there should be a CF fringe meeting at each regional confer. ence - it doesn't have to be a grand affair, just a forum for independent YSs to discuss with us.

Ring (01-) 609 3071 for details of accommodation, amendments, and addresses of supporters in your region.
