Three suggestions have been en-

three district presidents shall be
made the three vice-presidents of the
State Federation.

each committee will be made the
state committee of the same name

ident, as state chairman. (This last

These changes, if adopted, neces
state two years term of office.
These matters have now been pre-
scented before and endorsed by the
districts. Assured Of their friendly
cooperation the State Federation is
now ready to act. If favorably de-
cided upon, at Moscow, the districts
must amend their constitutions tc
conform to the new requirements
