converting representatives, if C111. so desires. *e would ansipifit
that this not be done but rather that ONE: asse.lIble the representa-
tives informally. In either event. the NIS question should first
be resolved by ?:..114i:. and OIC. and the ap- preach adopted should be
reflected in the LAC docuElierit. 1: lastly, 4C would appreciate
attending your .:,:leetings with the representatives.
