communication with Headquarters. Currently, we only send a letter con­
cerning monthly receipting of donations. We would appreciate your sugges­
tions about what should be included in such a package. Just include
them with your weekly report and they will be forwarded to Mail Processinq.
Passover Attendance: By way of reminder, we would like to mention to all
U.S. Church Pastors to send in their Passover attendance figures as quickly
as possible. As of this writing we have received information from less
than 50% of the pastors. Please make a special effort to get this infor­
mation in right away.

INTERVIEW-FOR.J."1.AT TV PROGRAM TO BE AIRED SOON
Beginning the last weekend in April, the first of the new interview­

comments, both pro and con, from members on the new format.
The sound track of the television program is presently being edited for
radio, and we will let everyone know when it is ready to air.

PUBLISHING SERVICES UPDATE
The American and British People in Prophec:r: is a new title for The United
States and British Commonwealth in Prophecy. This was one of the many
things I discussed with Mr. Herbert Armstrong during an hour plus tele­
phone conversation last Thursday. I found Mr. Armstrong relaxed and
very easy to talk with. He joked about some commercial advertising
he'd seen and we had a very profitable discussion.
I
was able to get
his direction on about ten questions I had regarding the forthcoming
publication of his books. He said that all of his books should be
offered free to members and co-workers before commercial publication.
Finally, I'd like to write a note of appreciation for all the Plain Truth
newsstand coordinators and distributors who make the program so effective.
These unsung heroes who freely and selflessly donate their time week after
week, month after month are the true backbone of the newsstand program and
deserve thanks from us at headquarters.
--Roger Lippross, Publishing
_S. E.P. UPDATE
There are still many openings available for campers to fill both first
and second sessions at S.E.P. this summer. To this date we've only re­
ceived 87 applications and need over 700 to fill camp. The April 20th
deadline in the Now You Know newspaper was a misprint. Please encourage
any of your Y.O.U. members to apply as soon as possible.
