Committee, presented the finance report showing the Council's

the Council incurred a deficit of about 520,000, he complimented
the staff for reacting quickly to the problem of decreased rev-
enues by promptly reducing operating expenses. Revenues were
$80,000 below budget, due primarily to shortfalls in the collec-
tion of membership dues and budgeted revenues, from the National
Foreign Trade Convention. Mr. Christensen said the staff faces
a difficult job in developing the 1982 budget for presentation
to the Board at the May meeting, and that the. Finance Committee
will give the budget very careful study. There being no ques-
tions, the committee report was accepted by the Board.
