BOX lOfiU mv Brunswick, n j 0890-He felt this meeting was a memorable meeting not only because of the return of a former President, and now Director, Julius Macker, but felt it more like a Christmas present for it brought each of us much closer together. It seemed more like old times in that the Hungarian Language was used more frequently during our deliberation. The deliberations and decisions are much more meaningful when put into effect. The contract with Inter-Continental Fraternal Services, Inc. is very much needed because it will hope­fully create additional new premium dol­lars. It is hoped that with increase in business it will assure us the opportunity to promote more fraternalism and help to preserve the Hungarian Heritage of our Association. President Charles felt we have a fine organization and a fine product and we should all endeavor to promote our Society. We are on the right road to progress and feels we will move forward. 1971 will be an exciting and meaning­ful year with the upcoming convention. He prays that this convention will draw each of us a little closer, so that as a team we can move our Association forward. He extended sincerest Christmas Greetings of "‘Peace on Earth, Good Will Towards Men” to each and every member and to their families and best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year. 27. Chairman of the Board, John P. Balia, also thanked the Board of Direc­tors and National Officers for their fine cooperation during the course of the meeting. He too felt this was a successful meeting which was accomplished through harmony and understanding. Through constructive methods we shall best serve the interest of our Association. We have made improvements and through better understanding, and collectively we can move the Association forward. He ex­tended a very Merry Christmas to all and good health for the coming year.
