The Reed family reunion association
have contributed good idea to such
organizations. Instead of the whole
association acting on resolutions it
empowers the resolution committee to
act. This enables action between the
times of reunions. The association
passes resolutions through this com
mittee on every death in the family
It can act quickly and without red
tape. And committee of five rep
resents the will of the association just
as much as vote Of 500 people. It
is a good idea for reunion associations

Thtre is much complaint against
publication of amounts paid. Here is
an argument advanced. One fellow
said; 81 do not like to sit with my
family at night in the living room
with the curtains up. We are doing
nothing wrong and nothing unusual
but | don't like to have the curtains
up. We are doing what millions of
other families are doing reading,
conversing, playing a game of cards,
perhaps, listening to the radio or en-
PERTAINING friends. But we do not
like the idea of being under public
observation and / should bitterly re-
sent a law that compelled me to let
anyone who saw fit to peer into my
home" The point is that taxes paid
are private affair of the payer and
the government and not a fair of
the curious public.
