be your people think we have no
romance but YOU should come and
see for yourself. no?

In the issue of the Nolksblatt
of June 20. 1850. we read in an
article. information given by NJ
A. Schneider. President OF the
Home Loan and Securities Cor
poration as to real estate mort
gage loans procured by the nam
ed corporation for the account OF
the Central Nerband.
In this paid advertisement in
the Nolksblatt, we welcome the
information given the members
Of the Central Nerband. but wish
to call the writer's attention to
the fact that he does not mention
why the majority OF these mort
cages under 6Oro of the appraisal
were not granted higher. The
truth is that in these cases the
borrower only asked for the a
mount given. We do not induce
anyone to borraw more than the
amount asked for.
We further bring to the atten'
ton of the members OF the Cen
trail Nerband that the officers
have nothing to hide or to explain
We do not care to discuss the
slanderous articles brought under
the names of NJ. A. Schneider and

The editor wishes to state that
the Volksblatt is not participant
ing in the issue stated in the with
in article, but is publishing same
as a matter of public interest.

II. Foisel in the columns of the
\.olksblatt. We see this as a de-
structive motive in order to gain
control of the organization un-
reasonably and we deny all points
given. They are not true.
We have worked peacefully
with the above named organiza-
ton. but it seems the objective
they were after was not achieved
in the last convention, and a new
way is now chosen to poison the
minds OF our members in bringing
the dividend question in these
articles as bait.
All members please be inform
ed that Your officers are doing
just what YOU expect them to do
- invest your money safely in
the interest OF the organization
and not for selfish gains.
NJ. 4. Schneidre stated in his
speech at the last convention in

Why hasn't Mr.. Schneider kept
his promise given to ll5 dele
gates at that convention A few
days after the convention, the Of.
fee received letter dated June
,, 1850. The paragraph pertaining
to the cancellation reads as fol
lows:
| Under the circumstance ant
after what was said in the las
convention. we have come to tn,
conclusion that we want to seve
relations with you. We are, there
fore, canceling our contract TO
procuring and servicing mort
gage loans for your account ,effec
tive June 50. 1850.
| Unless you yourself desire al
earlier termination, we shall clos
the now pending loans and maxi
the June collections. We expec
you to make all arrangements TO
taking care of the July collec
tions, including new pass books
. since we are going to retain al
outstanding passbooks becaus
of the imprint OF our name. Al

A presidents resignation and department superintendents' rec ommendations for an improved fair were the two most important items of business to come before the meeting of fair board and superintendents on Wednesday evening.
 Clyde King, Sr., sent word that press of other duties would make it impossible for him to serve as president of the fair board this year. No action was taken in the matter of electing a replacement for MT. King.
 Only a limited number of de- partment heads was in attendance at the Wednesday meeting, but those present offered many sug- gestions for an improved opera ton of the fair this year. Most ot their plans and ideas centered about the need for a better or ganization of the fair and for inn provement of existing construc- ton.
 Essential changes and improve ments they suggested included:
 l. Establishment of a central office on the fair grounds. to which superintendents could go. in the week prior 10 fair time. 10 check out necessary supplies and equipment.
 2. Thorough briefing of su-f perintendents and department heads. so that a clearer under standing of department man. agement would result.
 3. Issuance of passes 10 all fair judges.
 4. Installation of loud speaker on the Midway. 10 pub licize special events and attrac- lions in the various fair build ings.
