Socialist Club

The text of a talk given to the Socialist Club recently, by Mr. A. H. Scotney, will form the basis of a pamphlet which is being published by the club. The subject of the talk was "How Right was the Left," in which Mr. Scotney analysed the attitude and policy of marxists and left-wing thinkers generally during the last, ten years, and showed how closely the march of events has justified these theories.

Many of those present realised the unusual value of this talk, the fact that there is no publication readily available which covers this material. As a result it will be published, possibly with a different title, and should be on sale before the end of this term.

Political Science

The Political Science Society intends to publish, early in the third term, a write-up on political parties in New Zealand.

Supporters of Labour, National. Communist, Democratic Labour and other parties—here is your chance to tell the students of VUC all about your Party line. What is the structure and working of your party, and what is the character of the interests supporting it? What are the live political issues within the party itself?

Contributions up to 5,000 words will be accepted by the Editor, Political Science Journal, up to the end of the second term.
