Thurston said that he did not sup
port Breckons in his contention that
the Association should never act as

Cathcart made long speech In ia.

proper, and maintained that the Asso.

The Association would be the judge as
to whether charges should be brought

Robertson stated several members

Highton said that neither a court

no foundation for action.
