major consideration.
The consideration Of q pro-
posed revised constitution for local
branches" prepared by members
Of the national staff r. likely TO
bring about sharp debate on the
floor Of the conference. The Sc.
Paul branch has proposed that the

veEsed. According TO Rev. Clarence
+. II. Nelson, president Of the 81.
Paul branch, who II attending the
conference, "the voting delegates

The method proposed by our branch
In more democratic.
