Employees that 1t and the NFFE
merge into one organization.
How this will affect the internal
NFFE fight Is a matter Of con-
lecture.
The opponents Of Mr.. Steward
and Miss Mentally charge that
the NFFE needs new, dynamic
leadership. They declare that
the organization Is not as pro-
gressive and aggressive as it
should be. They also charge
the union Is losing membership
at q dangerous rate.
Furthermore. the Dallas in
"a Club" leaders assert that Mr..
Steward, who is II, and Miss
McNally, who is nearing 70, are
too old to lead the union any
longer. The two have led the
union almost since its inception,
holding their present jobs since
1919.
Their opponents concede that
Mr.. Steward and Miss McNally
have rendered Invaluable" serv-
ice to Federal employees In the
past and are in large part re-
-sponsible for the great improve
ment In worker benefits over the
years. But they declare that
during the past 10 years or SO
the NFFE has slipped badly as
an employee organization.
Several strategic moves will
be made by the opposition group.
First, constitutional amend
ment will be offered to Change
the system Of electing vice presi-
dents. Most of the present seven
vice presidents are friendly to
Mr.. Steward and Miss McNally.
The proposal calls for IL vice
presidents to be elected from
each Of the II civil service dis
tricts in the country. The present
seven vice presidents are elected
at large.
Gr0omed as Requirements.
The constitutional amendment
then calls for the election by
the vice presidents Of an execu-
tive assistant to the president
and one to the secretary-treas-
urer. These executive assistants
would be groomed as replace
ments to Mr.. Steward and Miss
Mentally. with the understanding
they would take control in 1856.
The hackers Of this amendment

Mr.. Steward and Miss McNally
also have their well-organized

Their supporters say that the
NFFE needs the continuing "wise

foolish to replace their combined
years Of experience with mex

The NFFE during the conven-
