cided that unless this is achieved, the magazine will be in even more financial trouble. Because of the lack of support from members the publication’s reserve fund is continuously being tapped to supplement the costs of printing and distribution. The assembly agreed that in order to stimulate compliance with this longstanding rule in the Bylaws, branches will be informed that if they fail to do so, their delegates to the Convention will not be allowed to vote. The XXI Convention of the UNWLA will be held in Cleveland, Ohio on May 23, 24, and 25, 1987. Mrs. Horodysky, who heads the Convention Committee ex plained the proposed program for the event. Iryna Chaj- kivsky, Chairman of the Convention Commemorative Publications Committee said that the Convention Book will reflect the Millennium celebration. She reminded those present that branches have a deadline of De cember 31, 1986 to send reports of their activities and photos to be included in the publication. Paid adver tisements will be accepted until the end of January 1987. Martha Bohachevsky-Chomiak, UNWLA vice-presi dent in charge of Public Relations spoke about the cen tennial celebration of the International Council of Wo men planned for 1988. Mrs. Chomiak, who is also vice-president of the National Council of Women, is involved in the committee which will prepare and super vise this event. UNWLA is planning to actively partici pate in this celebration. During their deliberations the members of the Na tional Board proposed and upheld the following re solutions: 1. To mark the celebration of the Millennium of Christianity in Ukraine with these actions — a) provide financial aid to Sister Sophia Senyk in Rome to help publish her book “The History of the Ukrainian Church” (both Orthodox and Catholic) in English; b) to financially support The Ukrainian Museum in its plans to exhibit icons and modern religious art, as well as in its publication of accompanying catalogues; c) To hold a contest sponsored by the Lesia z Petro Kowaliw Fund which will have the Millennium as its theme — in 1987 a literary work, in 1988 a scholarly his torical work. 2. To insure 100 percent membership subscription within the organization in 1986. Only delegates from Branches with 100 percent membership subscription will be allowed to vote in the upcoming Convention. 3. To organize seminars within Regions which will prepare the membership for the Convention. 4. To approve the purchase of a building by the Detroit Regional Council to be used by its Branches. 5. To approve s2,000 for the publication of a new UNWLA Scholarship Program brochure, and s2,000 for administrative expenses of the Scholarship Committee. 6. To urge every Regional Council to send repre sentatives to the Fifth World Federation of Ukrainian Women’s Organization (WFUWO) Congress in Toronto, Canada — November 1987. 7. To acknowledge and congratulate the Committee of the Ukrainian Woman in Two Worlds Conference for their excellent work in preparing and conducting the event. 8. To approve UNWLA membership in the National Women’s Party, headquarters in Washington, DC, one of the oldest women’s organizations in the U.S. L O N E L I N E S S That — you call loneliness? When the world in waves Laps against the wall? I rejoice in it, and never waver, Shall burn in its embrace and never sleep at all. Limitless loneliness squalls through the night Till it is spent in the skeptical morn; Loneliness of activity, of creation born. I’ll lock up into the subconscious and hide the key from sight. Proud jewels lie there. And vain Daily murmurs lie mum at the door. The borderline vanished; dissolved in pure air Between my loneliness and creativity and creativity, and God. Proud loneliness, fuse with me When human wings rustle outside the wall. But if you’re loneliness just in the name of loneliness Vanish — never to return at all.
