Any other Offices t o be f i l l ed . ail.]. take place a t the Convention over the Labor Day meek end, i f eiiough Board Members ,attend,

Again we ask why on1.y a small majority of the members vote? This year i t was only 66.86 $, why not 1.00% or a t l e a s t i n the high 90s. Your Exec Secretary can see no reason f o r not voting, the voting cards have been supplied by one of our members a1.ready addressed leaving the member only having t o f i l l i n the names and drop i t i n the mail box4 x I am sure nothing can be eas ie r than th i s .
