I'm advocating the cause of organization
practical as we'll az sentimental benefits
must ever be borne in mind; we must real
ize the dignity and power which Organiza-
tion brings, and what determined and per-
sstent efforts and work will accomplish
The time must have gone by when more
than an invitation to brother Is neces-
sary for him to join the association OF his
city. He should be conscious of the abso-
lutte necessity of organization. A member
should consider it much his duty to at
tend the meetings of his local association as
he would to open his market in the morning.
and by his presence at the meetings give the
officers Of his association that aid and en-
couragement so essential and helpful to up
compiishment Of It's aims and objects, so
dear to us all. working in unison and ac-
cord for one common cause"
Some Recommendation.
Some Of the important recommendation
made by President Wagner include:
That the legislative committee of the
different states take the necessary steps to
enact law subjectins tierced meats boxed
meats and poultry to forfeiture il found
short weight and payment for box weights
is insisted upon
respective cities the establishing of public
abattoirs. where butchers can do their own
sIaughterinS encouraging home industry
and the raising of all kinds of stock in the
immediate neighborhood Of cities. Partic
ularly Is this true of the southern middle
and eastern states.
That our federal government eliminate
the duty on cattle and live stock or modify
1t to an extent that importation Of live
stock will not be prohibited by reason Of
excessive duty during periods of extreme
nigh prices that are a hardship to the pub
lie at large and a detriment to the retail

be forwarded to the United States govern
ment.
That vote of thanks and appreciation
be extended to United States Attorney
General Knox and State Attorney General
John Z. Davies for their aid and work in
obtaining an Injunction against the beef
combination. and that copy of the resolu-
tion be forwarded to them.
Fhat a vote of thanks be given to the
public press for the aid accorded US by the
publicity given to the methods of the beef
harmful to the general public
Inc addresses of all the officers were
enthusiastically received. and the recon-
mendations OF the president will doubtless
form the basis Of action on the part of
the committee on resolutions and recon-
mendations
