National Fantasy Fan, v. 5, issue 7, October 1946

Page 14

submitted as yet for the Directorate's consideration. Dunk says he has fifteen signatures to overrule Directorate if necessary, but the present constitution requires all amendments to be submitted to Directorate first. There must be a ruling before there can be an overruling. Additionally, the constitution says 15 additional signatures must be obtained, for a total of 20.

However, if it is the will of the membership to overlook this bit of chicken & vote for their preference, theirs is the final voice. Accordingly, per Article III(A)(3b) I have directed the ballot to be prepared as published in this issue.
