This Bulletin is brought out to help arm worker leaders - with information, fresh ideas, new thoughts, skills - to fight the battle for a new South Africa. The Bulletin will carry articles on issues in the factory and outside of it. All issues which affect workers. Our lives are bigger than the factory only.
