MIM NOTES No. 197,		November 1, 1999

Attention Prisoners:

Make sure you write MIM at least once every three months to ensure 
that we keep you on the mailing list for MIM Notes. MIM does not 
accept certified mail.

If it is your first time receiving MIM Notes, you need to write 
within one month and then write every three months after that.

MIM Notes is often censored and comrades are transferred. The 
mailing list policy is necessary to avoid wasting limited funds. 
We no longer include reminders with the paper.

If the envelop label has a number (9) on it, our last record of 
your correspondence was from August and the November MIM Notes 
will be the last until you write us again. Similarly, if the 
envelope has a (10), unless you write, the December issues will be 
the last mailed to you.

And remember that mail gets returned unless we have your full 
legal name, number and address.

All prisoners interested in organizing United Struggle from Within 
should have received a general 8 page letter regarding direction 
and specific tasks of USW. (These were mailed between April and 
July.) All USW comrades interested in participating in the 
continental study group should have received the packet of Mao's 
Three essays on Philosophy in the months of June and July. Study 
group participants should have also received the follow-up 
discussion and additional information during August. (Some 
confusion has arisen because of censorship -- if you received one 
of the packets, you were also sent the other.) Participants in the 
study group are expected to actively contribute.

Prisoners interested in the STP Prisoners' Legal Clinic should 
have received letters over the last few months detailing the needs 
of the PLC and MIM Legal Notes.

If you want more information and have not gotten it, contact the 
MIM Prison Minister.
