OFFICERS OF THE FAPA

Milton A. Rothman, Vice-President
Elmer Perdue, Sec'y-Treas.
L. R. Chauvenet, Official Editor

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
     The entrance of this country into war means that there may be some difficulties for the FAPA, in the days to come. Such troubles should sneak up on us gradually, and they can be met one by one. I see no reason why the FAPA should have a <u>very<u> hard time in weathering this storm, if all present members will co:operate on the two chief problems--recruiting and publishing.
     One suggestion, however, might not be out of place. I recommend that, in the coming elections, only those members who are fairly certain that they will not be drafted or otherwise be forced to drop fan activities, run for office. Experiences in the past have proved that the officers in general, and Official Editor and Sec.-Treas. in particular, can make or break the organization. Loss of one or two important officers and the resultant confusions and special elections would do the FAPA more harm than increasing prices of paper and publishing supplies.

--Harry Warner, Jr.
President. Feb. 19, 1942
