her, and am sure she will do an excellent job. That's all now, as I don't believe in talking about what the other departments are doing. Each Chariman can do that himself. I'm just a co-ordinator. Hoping to see you at Portland, or, if you happen to be in Los Angeles on June 18th, at the 3rd WESTERCON. DIRECTORATE Art Rapp, Chairman James Taurasi Len Moffatt Ed Cox Ray G. Higgs Fellow Members: The Directorate has been comparatively calm and peaceful of late, which is a good sign, because it shows that all the officers and project workers have been carrying out their jobs satisfactorily. Most important piece of business on hand now is preparing for the 1950 elections. The elections will be held in October -- but an effort will be made to get ballots to the overseas fen before then, so they can get a chance to vote. All details have not yet been arranged, but here's the big picture: If YOU intend to run for office, file your candidacy now, by sending a letter to Roy Lavender, our Sec-Treas., outlining your campaign promises, etc. The platforms which reach the Sec-Treas before 15 July 1950 will be printed in the August issue of TNFF. The deadline for getting your name on the ballot will also be announced at that time. The offices to be filled are the NFFF Presidency and the five Directorate positions. We hope there will be at least five NFFFers running for the Presidency, and 15 or more for the Directorate. If you wish, you can round up a "team" to fill all the offices, and run as a political party. Or you can run as an individual. It's up to you. A number of this year's office-holders will not be running again, either thru lack of time for NFFF activity, or because of the "no-third-term" tradition -- so it's time for some new names to appear on the ballot. How about yours? Other Directorate activities since last TNFF: A NFFF-sponsored zine edited by Bill Venable was authorized, and the first issue is almost ready for publication. FUTURIST, edited by Redd Boggs and published by Ray Higgs, was mailed to all members a few weeks ago. Bob Johnson is taking over publication of POSTWARP beginning with its June issue. FANDIRECTORY is nearly done. Some of the WelCom leaflets are being brought up to date. Stationery for new members has been obtained, also NFFF stickers. IMPORTANT: If you have not yet paid your 1950 dues, this issue of TNFF is the last NFFF-published zine you will receive! Better renew your membership so you don't miss anything in the next few weeks! TNFF ART RAPP Deadline for the next TNFF (August 1950) is 15 July 1950. Lack of space prevents printing the dozens of letters which were written to TNFF regarding the Activity Requirement Plan -- this issue of TNFF is kept as small as possible because of lack of time and also because the $43 loss from the publishing funds doesn't leave much in that division of the Treasury. 3
