Sanders and others, Il was finally decided to give the resoiu- ton to the Board of Censors with a request to report at their earliest pos sible convenience.
 Dr. Sanders announced to the Asso- citation that a modern pathological and bacterioiogicaI laboratory. had been made ready for lspection in the state Capitol building, and expressed the hope that all of the members would visit the new department. He stated that the laboratory was for the use of the Association and that he hoped any thing which puzzles doctors anywhere in the State would be sent to the lab oratory. ~t
 pr. Sanders moved that the priyi- lege of the floor be given to Dr. Me- cormick of Washington, D. O., pr. Stiles of the marine corps. and pr. Pe- terson of New York, The privilege was unanimously granted.

 The annual message of the President of the society was next on the pro- gram of the afternoon. The address was quite a lengthy one. and follows in part:
 "The year which is now rounding into history has been marked by many events to the association. The health of the State has been fairly good. there have been no serious epidemics, and it therefore has not been necessary to invoke the quarantine laws for the protection of the health of the State. Malaria has asserted itself pretty gem eraliy and a few outbreaks of typhoid have been reported. The epidemic of la grippe was distributed fairly well oyer the State, but was attended by fewer complications than the average epidemic
 The Cochran monument fund is en-, tirely inadequate to the needs of the committee having the matter in charge and wish to call the attention of this most earnestly to the members of the society.
 President weIch on Legislation.
 This has been a legislative year. and 1t gives me great pleasure to re- port to you that many recommends tions have crystaIlized into law. A bill establishing a colony for epileptics has been passed. This Is a monument to my predecessor. pr. Mcwhorter.

Mir. Munsey takes emphatic issue with Wall Street and the followers of Wall Street who hold the President responsible for the panic. It is not his pur- pose in the discussion to acquit MT. Roosevelt of blame, but rather to get at the facts, as the facts are necessary to intelligent progress in the recovery of our business activities.
 If these facts," MT. Munsey says. "acquit the President, he is, as a matter of common hon. esty, entitled to the acquittal." What we want to know, and should know, Is the truth. And
