Dear Comrades,

The International Committee at its meeting which has just concluded endorsed the July resolution of the SWP on "Unity" (see enclosed copy).

This resolution therefore constitutes our official reply to your letters dated July 18th, August 1st, and August 22nd.

The International Committee wishes me to inform you that it considers the compromise proposals of Comrade Cannon remain the only real basis for unification and that it rejects the counterproposals contained in your letters dated July 18th, August 1st, and August 22nd.

Yours fraternally,

Preston [Healy]

Secretary
