C.T. Branch,
Cape Town.

Dear Comrade,

We have been busy organising the African Metal Trades Union and
as you will see from the letter they have sent you, battles lie
ahead
of us. In leading the first strike of 1937 the "counter revolutionary" Troskyites
are flinging the lie in the faces of the wretched Stalinists.38 I
will keep the Cape Town Branch in constant touch with developments.
Please make the fullest use ofour resources, the Spark, Spartacus
Club, etc in giving pulbicity to, and gaining support for the strike
of the African metal workers.

Miners are joining our union and a victory in this strike will
give to the Troskyites the leadership in the rising strike wave
which
shows signs of inundating South Africa.

Yours fraternally,
R.Lee
Secretary.
