the Board of Directors, Humane AMI
NAL League, 304 Laughlin Bldg? Los
Angeles, Cal: We, the Undersigned
Mr.. and Mrs. r. l.. Horton, hereby re-
sign as directors and members OF tlle
Humane Animal league, and the FORMER
resigns as attorney for said league, ahc
as this is the third time that our reslg-
nation has been handed to the poard
and acceptance declined, we insist on
an immediate acceptance of this reslg-
nation and base it on the following
grounds, to wit:
l. The purpose had in view by the
league in taking charge of the amman
pound under contract with the CITY
was to give the city a more humane
and businesslilSe administration; under
the old regime it had been charged
that the Vachers were very cruel and
inhumane in their management OF the
pound, and for that reason we, the I'M
dersigned opposed continuing the
Vachers in charge of the pound, and II
was promised us they would be dls-
charged and in fact we were LED TO
believe that they had been discharged
until some. time after the execution OIL
the contract with the city we ascer-
tanned that the Vachers were in charge
of the work at the pound and that prac-
tically the old system was being con-
tinued.
Vachers Remain
On making vigorous protest as to
said matters we were again assured
that the Vachers would be gotten rid
of, but afterWard the president or the
league informed us that her hands were
tied in regard to the Vachers, that she
had promised certain councilmen IN
consideration that the pound be turned
over to the league the Vachers should
be retained This fact we were kept in
ignorance Of and when we discovered
it we Immediately resigned, but the
board refused to accept our resignation
and we were again promised that the
Vachers would be dismissed. we nave
protested a number of times since ana
asked for their dismissal, but in spite
of our efforts they are still in charge Oh
the work at the pound.
g. In organizing the Humane AMI
NAL league we did so with the ASSIST
ance of Miss Mathewson, with the I'M
Outstanding that the chief purpose was
to bring about a more humane treat
ment of animals in the city of Los
Angeles, and that the funds of the
league should be devoted to that pur-
pose. and with the intention of event.
ualIv establishing a rescue home Tor
animals and building drinllir- foun-
tains for animals in different places
within the city of Los Angeles. AFTER
ward, when the matter of taking charge
of the animal pound was talked over,
it was done so in spirit Of humanity
only, and we felt that conditions could
he improved at the pound, that by an
economical administration of its affairs
a certain surplus fund could be created
with which to carry out the original
purpose of the organization. With that
in view we have always urged upon the
league the necessity for economy in its
affairs that such fund might be Gre
ated.
Treasury Exhausted
But despite our efforts in that diree-
ton we are of the opinion that large
sums of money have been uselessly ex-
pended. and out of an original donation
