d- National & Executive Committees

An Executive Committee of eleven men was designated,
of which the Executive officers of the Fund, with the exception

of Mr. Trimmer, were all members. A. National Committee
of sixty was selected, consisting of distinguished men in all
walks of life, from various sections of the Country. It was
impossible ever to call the Exectuve Commiteee together, however,
and the National Committee had no executive functions,
as a Committee.
