Turning the gave to the Supreme Vice President
Mandch opened discussion the various Reports by

made in his particular Report.
Bro Mandch - AS did the past several meetings of
this Board, again appeal to you to consider lifting the
ban against the Society paying officers called to attend
Lodge and Committee functions of major proportions
cite numerous examples of societies smaller than which
do not impose such restrictions, but rather paid
Field Men, in instances Zone Men, who authorized
dtleHu MAJOR CeleDrauOnS etc., etc.
the good of their organization and at it's expense While
do not feel that should attend every Lodge affair
the expense of the Croaan Fraternal Unon of the
sincere opinion that should be authorized to attend
ger affairs for the moral and material good of the Society
whole We have much fertile territory to cultivate both
in America and Canada and should take advantage of every
opportunity to enlargen the Society," Surely sincere
Der would criticize travelling under such crcum
stances would benefit the Croatian Fraterna Union
i Bro Nikolac - am against reversing the Board de-
cson in this matter for is still my opinion that Lodges
and Committees desiring the services of speaker a
drawing card should his expenses AS for campaign
meetings or conferences experience has taught that
speaker possibly the Societys many facets
limited time, do vndicate paying his
expenses
Bro. Brkch - There all too many times when we
called out to address Lodge celebration and paid
cent for services rendered In travelled better
than miles to speak at celebration sponsored by two
Lodges ard received exactly $780, This injustice
how we turn down Lodges when they desire
speakers? Surely cannot them and maintain
good will for the Society," and yet neither much long
er foot own bills to do much.
Bro krasich - agree in many respects with bro
Mandich in this matter but also question the wisdom OF
paying the of anyone called great distance tc
address celebration which lasts only short while Fur
cannot that should pay expenses to those
