The writer is of the opinion that thed es ir ed r es ul t c ou ld b es t b e accompl ished by havinga large active solic it ing membership committee. The writer's idea is t ha t o f a t ot al committeeof pos si bl y t hi rt y t o t hi rt y- fi ve menor women, and each one of the comm it te e to c an va ss a specified territory near his or her residence, saypossibly twenty t o c an va ss t he northside of t he t own and fifteen the southside.The writer is willing to wor k o n t he

As -stated in my previous le tter, theN:sult thus far is anything but ·satisfactory. There should be no troublewhatsoever ill obt ai ni ng a minimummembership of one thousand members.
