Unanimous dissatisfaction wit it
the present council form of etnto
government were expressed at the
business meeting in the afternoon.
Tho council plan, inaugurated at
the convention in Portland last
year, places tho state organization
in an advisory capneity to local
chapters without effective niea ns
of raising funds or doing business,
i Several chapters throughout tho
state have shown declines In mcm-
heivhlp because the state council
has no way to intervene or main

division plan, which places the
stale organization InJ control of
local chapters and In turn is re
