This is the last issue of 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly that will be published in 1994. With this issue, 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ completes its fourth year of independent, progressive and professional production. This is a feat that we should all be proud of: those of us who help produce the paper, those of us who help circulate the paper and those of us who read the paper.
In a few weeks, 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ will begin to publish for its fifth year. This will also be something we should all feel very proud of. Few independent political newspapers of 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳'s quality have lasted such a distance.
More remarkable to note is that 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ has continued to publish for four years without corporate or government money. The (meagre) resources 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ has been able to accumulate have been provided by you — the readers and supporters of 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳.
In our fifth year, 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ will be no less reliant on your support. We will be asking you to subscribe to the paper. We will want you to donate to our 1995 fund appeal. And we will want you to help distribute and write for the paper.
Over the next six weeks or so, the presses will be silent. This does not mean that 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ will be on holiday. We'll be improving, updating and refurbishing, where we can, to ensure an even better paper in 1995.
You can help get 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ off to a great start for the new year. Why wait till the first issue to send that article or donation? Why miss the first issue? — subscribe now. After four years, 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ is an institution; play your part in making it stronger. 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly — it's your newspaper. n
