On the Grapevine

THE THEME of this year's General Service Conference (see page 43) is drawn from the First Tradition: Personal recovery depends upon AA unity. By the time you read this. Delegates from Canada and the United States will have deliberated for nearly a week on the problems inherent in keeping the AA message strong and clear--and available to the next half-million members as it was to the first half-million in the form given it by the founders and early members. May the Delegates' work help to speed AA's growth worldwide!
