The board noted the fact that the magazine was in red financially and recognizing the value of the education al and promotional campaign conducted therein, still urged an advertising cam paign to make the magazine self sup porting. The editor, the officers and all members were requested to promote advertising. A campaign to solicit sub scriptions from non members was sug gested. The president reported that all obli gations incidental to the legislative campaign had not heen taken care of and reported that the League of Ore gon Cities Public Employees Retire ment Committee, on which he had rep resented our Association, had engaged the services of Mr. Ralph R. Nelson, actuary for the California State Retire ment System and for the San Francisco Municipal Retirement System, and Mr. Coates, Consulting actuary of San Francisco, to analyze the proposed Ore gon Retirement Plan. This actuarial analysis was duly received and no doubt strengthened the case with the legisla ture and materially advanced the cause of the legislation.
