Dear Phog:

One matter comes to my mind that I think should have some
consideration before our Topeka meeting. It is in regard to
the matter of the student from Latin Americae In my last Monthly
Letter I said that we fell down on this item this year. There
seem@ to be no provision for handling that. .

What would you think of my appointing a committee of three

to look into this and make a report at Topeka. I have appointed
a Resolution Committee of which Koy Luke of gunction City is the
chairmane You will note in the April Monthly Letter the other
members of this committee. I wrote to Roy suggesting that one
resolution perlwaps should be presented regarding ‘this matter.
As I look at the rules of the Conference, it strikes me that
a separate committee might be considering this special item
and hand their resolution to the chairman of the resolution
committee.

I wonder if three presidents of the clubs at Lawrence, Emporia,
end MNenhattan would not be the best prepared - consider this
and have such a resolution ready. :

Your resolution might be simply to approve the plan and
authorize that $200 be devoted to this object for next year
and that such a committee as the three I have suggested be
- guthorized to work with the new governor and handle it.

I shall wait for a reply from you before I write to the
Manhattan and Emporia presidents.

Tell your new president to be sure to plan to be at the
breakfast for presidents Monday morning, May 1.
