<br />commission is trying to find out who <br />should be invited to present a point of <br />view. So if any of you on the Board or <br />in the audience represent any group that <br />would like to appear on behalf of that <br />group, and I don't mean national organiza- <br />tions because it is my understanding that <br />national organizations' points of view <br />will be handled at the national level, <br />but local groups that have some position <br />they would like to present, I think the <br />commission would be happy to hear from <br />them. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />A representative of the commission <br />is in town today and will be until about <br />three o'clock.
