Dear editor, I received the August 1985 issue of Socialist Action and was elated to see the short article about Armenian political activists imprisoned in Ottawa.
I am one of them and l thank you for your tremendous positive solidarity gesture. It means a lot to us Armenian socialists-especially after 17 months of unjust incarceration-to see the international left take up the Armenian question. Your article was a welcome boost to our spirits. I am a sympathizer of the Fourth International and have followed the political discussion within your ranks. Socialist Action is doing a great job of clarifying and upholding the banner of the Permanent Revolution. Keep up the banner of the FI and strive to unify its various currents and tendencies.
In these times of economic crisis and Reaganite reaction, I would appreciate it if you could send all your literature to me.
Our trial begins on Sept. 23. After 18 months in jail, our morale is high. We will win as the heroic peoples of the Middle East, South Africa, and Central America will win.
Long live revolutir inary internationalism. No to individual terrorism.

Dear editor, I enjoyed your "FORUM" section in the September issue of Socialist Action and found it a useful and important contribution to the discussion on how to fight effectively against the bosses.
In the April 1985 issue of your paper, in the interview with Anthony Mazzocchi, you had listed the address of the Workers Policy Project, a project with which I am also involved. After this article appeared, we received numerous calls from around the country asking for more information about the project.
In your September "FORUM" section, in your interview with me, you failed to list the address again. I would appreciate it if you would inform address.
Ed Ott, New York Dear editor,
