M., Saturday, June 30th, 1934. « The purposes of said meeting are to fill vacancies in the committee including the selection of a Chairman to succeed the undersigned, whose resignation will be placed in the Com- mittee’s hands upon convening. It has been suggested that all members of the Territorial Committee who are office hold- ers under the Federal Administration should be succeeded by non-office holders, and for that reason I suggest that the Divi- sional Committees have meetings in advance of the meeting of the Territorial Committee and determine whether or not it is their desire that office holders: should be excluded from the Territorial Committee, and, in case they so desire, suggest suc- cessars to those who would be disqualified thereby. The primary purpose of the meeting is to make plans for the com- ing campaign. In case members of the Territorial Committee cannot attend the meeting on June 30th, 1934, 1 suggest that they give Attest: proxies to someone who will be able to attend and instruct them in accordance with the desire of the local committeemen.
