Conference Leadership Is Discussed The spirit of St. Patrick's Day was maintained last night as the Westchester chapter of the Nation al Office Management Association celebrated its fifth anniversary with a gala party at the Holiday Inn. Russell Harrell of Chappaqua, president of the group, presided. Speaking extemporaneously on \Conference Leadership,\ Jerome Mayer, director of Jerome Mayer Associates, management consult ants, asked his 'audience, \If 'con ference' is synonymous with wast ed time, long-winded speeches and bull sessions, why does industry continue to use them? Because conference procedures are neces sary to achieve their objectives and because they do not know how to conduct conferences efficient ly,\ he declared. Formerly direc tor of the Lawyers' Postgraduate Clinic and instructor of practicing lawyers in psychology and trial technique, Mr. Mayer stresses the need for good planning and fore sight as well as a complete knowl edge of the people who are to par ticipate if the conference objective is to be reached. \The conference leader must know both the question and the men who are dealing with it; what they want to accomplish for them; selves and what they fear to re veal or talk about.\ Mr. Mayer said that as a conference gets un der way, the' leader must be par ticularly careful to record all sug gestions, regardless of his person al feelings. \Failure to record a suggestion may be tantamount to telling man that his ideas are worthless. As soon as a man feels that his ideas are not worth listing, he will with draw mentally. Avoid yes or no questions,\ Mr. Mayer went on. \The conference leader must pass the questions back and forth and never hog the time by answering questions, experting or lecturing.\ As a mechanical means for keep ing ideas flowing and the confer ence \on the beam,\ Mr. Mayer recommended a chart to record suggestions and to write down dif fering viewpoints of the people in volved. \When each is satisfied that his views are correctly. pre sented, the area of disagreement is often eliminated,\ Mr. Mayer declared. Cautioning that his sug gestions would not work if used to exploit or manipulate a group, Mr. Mayer concluded, \Sincere appreciation and respect for the confreres and their ideas and feel ing make for the effective confer ence.\ An hour's entertainment follow ed the,meeting, featuring concert violinist Francis Flannagan and Lean Dunlea, \The Voice of Erin\ and protege of John McCormick. Also appearing on the program were the Mulvihill Dancers, the Ellen Welker Dancers,, the Cyrill McNiff Dancers, Peter Smith, Jer ry Campbell and Miss Marie Cole man.

Gas Stations Offer Free Tax Computer A guide to compute gasoline tax payments deductible on fed eral and state income tax returns is being distributed at service sta tions throughout New York State.
