Dear Eddie, This is what is in the Memorandum and Articles, should the Association wish to deviate, then this should be brought to the members for change. The members who took it on themselves, to help out the Goan seamen had to come cap in hand to the membership for reimbursement. I am not sure the memorandum can be changed, it is the heart of the Constitution; if am I wrong, no doubt, I shall be corrected fortwith. DEV BOREM KORUM. Gabe Menezes. London.
