ing to the request of the Northern California Cen
trail Committee of Lodges for the sponsorship there OF
Training School and motion before this Board to send
bros Bella and Krasch the instructors thereof
The Chair recognized bro. Nkoa Hnich as the first
speaker.
Bro Hinch My only concern here is not who is fin
av chosen go California for the purpose but what
our membership will think of Board when they read
these Minutes and find differing so vehementy on SO VI
tai matter to the future of the Croaan Fraterna Ono
There only question for us to answer Are the Cah
fona Training Schools necessary and who shall we send as
instructors? Let's proceed to vote and settle this
Bro. Maietic - resent the remark made here
earlier in these meetings that do nothing su-
preme Board All Of the outside are serving our 100
pes in one official capacity another We live eat breath
and sleep with the CFU in hearts and minds And we
wor, IN it's behalf virtually around the CLOCK
Certainly need Training Schools and we in Detroit
intend to hold Training School in Detroit and use as our
instructors present and past members or the Supreme
Board who live in the And am sure that School wl
be successful What can't understand here is why
this request the Northern California Lodges WASH
handled the Executive Board To the Executive Board
looks like of favorsm prevailing over common sense
and reecting against bros Mandich and Grasha don't
like this Nor do think member of the Trustees likes
anv better for we outsiders always being put
on such spots this when there is reason for It,
Bro. Kovacevich - Nor do I like this "favorltlsm I
talk than like ec an M
of YOU to select bros Bella and Grasha the instructors
for California schools Or that isn't hen
sher Central Committees and other lodges run their
own Training Schools under the competent leaders IN the
Bro Mandich - regret very much that have to re-
fer now to that reference in bro Kraschs talk OF TINS
morning don't kill the program Does ne mean to imply
that if he and bro aren't chosen to be Training School
the program will die? Ii he does mean na Ine
he wrong This will go on and on to ogger ana
better things matter who goes to what framing ocnoo
so don't your the Northern California request be
guided by any don't kill the program" nsinuatons Per-
sonay intend vote against sending bros. Bella and
Krasich to California That is my right and mean 10 eS
ercse it. ... !.
be the speaker the motion made earlier in these
meetings But very sorry that had to sit around walt
ing for this moment spend the time listening to certain
members of this Board lowering themselves in my esma-
ton with their nnuendos nsinuaon hearsay and other
talk unbecomng of us officials or the society am
going mention here not going to attack
anyone
had every right to make the motion before this Board
to send bros Bella and Krasch to California You didn't
go into personalities when made the motion and
won't 20 into them You didn't hear say then that
only Bella and Krasch qualified to
nsucors but you did hear state that they should be
solely the basis of their past experiences along
Another thing Bro. Kovacevch talked earlier here
about a compromise Compromise on what?
cent ~ +be Chair wish to withdraw the motion made
here Sept 10: That authorize Training Schools in
Northern and Southern California and bros Bella and
Krasich the instructors.
Sister Nsic who had originally seconded bro vrsnes
motion gave her permission for the withdrawal of the
ton and bro Mandich promptly his consent to the
quest
Bro vranes then moved sister Niksc and bro Kovace
vch secondng that the California Training Schools in ques
authorized and that Supreme Secretary bro Joseph
Bella be designated the only instructor at the expense
of the Society
Bro Borich asked whether any person could han
die such a School
The Chair replied obviously not and that competent
leaders in both Northern and Southern California would
have to aid bro Bella in the undertakings.
Bro Mandch then put the motion to vote and
it was adopted by unanimous vote.
Bro Bella was next asked to continue with Correspon-
dence and Resolutions.
The Supreme Secretary first read letter written by
bro. John Baron, ST., Benwood W. Va. Lodge member,
in which the latter suggested that certain revons be made
in the method of making Membership Campaign Prize Pay
n1ents.
The Supreme Board members discussed this suggestion
from many angles and then agreed that changes be
made during the Of the Socets current Membership
