4334 sealing them thereafter; PROVIDED, that if the question voted upon involves the interest of either the General President or the General Secretary-Treasurer. neither he nor any appointee of his shall participate in canvassing the returns. The result of the canvass shall be proclaimed forthwith and published in the next issue of The Guild Reporter. The ballots, tally sheets and other papers incidental to the returns shall not be destroyed, but shall be kept sealed, for a period of not less than sixty (60) days. Section 9. If, within thirty (30) days, at least ten (10) Local Guilds in not less than five (5) states protest the count, charging gross irregularity, a reputable Certified Public Accountant shall be engaged to examine the ballots and other papers, the membership lists maintained at General Headquarters, and any other documents or records pertinent to the issue, and his certification of the result of the election, or that it is impossible to arrive at a true, or conclusive, count shall be accepted as final. In the latter event a new election shall be held. Section 10. Should such protest and recount produce no change in the result of the election, or no evidence of gross irregularity in the original count or canvass, the expense involved shall be borne, pro rata according to membership, by the protesting Local Guilds. Section 11. Whenever an election is held under this chapter each Local Guild shall pay The American Newspaper Guild five cents for each member on its books, whether in good standing or not, toward defraying the expenses of the election; and if there remain an unexpended balance from the assessment, it shall be deposited in the Defense Fund.

BUCK, MAY 16, 1936. Washington, D. C. Press Room, District Building, 13th and Pennsylvania Avenue, DEAR BOB: Inclosed copies of letters. It is pretty hard to get the New I understood from Peggy that some of your colleagues failed to come across. May I help? In fact may I buy ten copies of the Constitution, which I would like to have here as a sort of model of union constitution for some young lawyers here to profit by? Inc.
