FROM THE PRESIDENT
Continued from Page 8

BAC Executive Vice President Louis Weir's, son-in-law's brother. To date Rosenbush and Burke have raised no money for the IMI.

Over the past six years, the IMI has spent $350,000 attempting to develop a housing project in Poland. Why does IMI want to build housing in Poland? Joyce has been using the IMI Poland program to write off major parts of his European travel expenses to IMI.

The Masonry Fair in Chicago this past October ran over $1.5-million or approximately 18 percent of IMI's total annual budget. I don't have a clue what this Masonry Fair is all about but I sure could use the work.

The actual return of money to the local areas is shown below:

This is only a measly $8.4-million dollar a year promotion fund. I wonder what's happening to the $800-million dollar International Pension Fund?-Lenny Pardue
