MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
In Conventions ut Atlanta Mako a
Fight Against Dt. Atkinson.

Atlanta, May 6.-The feature of the
American Medical Associations pro-
ceedings this morning was the fight
made on the VENERABLE secretary, Dr.
Atkinson, who has been in charge OF
the records of the association for the
last 30 years Quite an opposition has
developed. but he won and will hold his
place for another year at least
Last year a resolution was introduced
that there be a change In the constitu-
ton so that the secretary should be
elected annually. 1t was necessary UNI
der the rules that this motion should
be laid over until the next annual meet
ing, and that 1t should take its place
on the programme that was to he
published before the meeting This is
what was not done, as no mention of the
resolution was made In the published
programme. DR.. 1. n. Love, of St.
Louis, who introduced the resolution
last year, called up the matter stating
that the resolution had not been placed
on the programme. He now asked that
the resolution be read second time.
and be placed on it's passage as he
thought the constitution should be
changed before the report of the nom
mating comnltttee was made. The
nominating committee. he said. felt that
the secretary of the association should
be a younger and more vigorous man.
DR.. Isaac Quisnby, of New Jersey.
moved that the whole matter be laid on
the table. and after some delay q vote
was taken and the resolution was laid
on the table.
DR.. Love arose In an excited manner
and said: Mr.. President. move that
we declare that this association cannot
change It's secretary" There were
cries of shame! shame!' from differ
ent parts of the hall, and the president
refused to put the motion.
