I am writing to you on behalf of a group of Apprentices and young workers. We have noticed that the Dwarf at one point writes for the student intellectuals of the Left, and then writes for the working type people in the form of articles on skin-heads. We think that the Dwarf has got to decide which it is centring on. The reason we say this is that many of our friends have said to us that the Dwarf is a good paper but they can't understand the dictionary type articles and that although they are good articles, they are not interested in reading about Stalin, Pakistan or the Middle East troubles.

I, like them, would like to see the Dwarf do more articles on young workers and workers in general, because as I'm sure you realise that in any revolution or social change it is the workers and the working class that are the force that fights for the changes, and not the intellectual groups, or have you forgotten that?

I, and the others, thought that the Dwarf was very good when it did the Youth Supplement and we would like to congratulate all the people concerned, but then we are disappointed when the Dwarf returned to its usual self. What we would like to see is a permanent youth page that has articles from youth writers and articles that are more relevant to us.

We sincerely hope that you will consider this matter as we feel that the Dwarf has the posi JANUARY 11th: Conference on Workers' Chelsea College of Science, King's Road, SW13. 10 to Tickets 12/6 (inc. food), Brian Nicholson, 64 Northampton House, Corporation Row, EC1.
