REPORTS were prepared in time to have

Guarantees Attendance
George r. Carter suggested that
the reports we're all in the hands Of
the members an incentive for attend
Ing would be taken away.
N. Dowsett thought there would
be no fear Of members staying away
unless the annual banquet was omit
ted.
Mr.. Moir considered the chief in.
centiVe was the discussion, not the
reading of the reports.
Mr.. Carter said the point has well
taken, but he would have liked more
discussion than he had heard. Had 1t
not been for the electrifying influence
OF the chairman there would have
been hardly any discussion.
James Glib had been aching for
wears past to bring up this matter.
He would suggest that the reading Of
reports in session be left to the dis
cretion of the chairmen in order to
leave more time for discussion. 5
President Bishop held the reading
of reports essential to bring them
properly before the association. Pos
sibiy the appended letters might not
require to be readl by the chairmen.
There was something in what Mr.. Car
ter had said, yet IL would be a great
advantage to have reports distributed
In advance s.-. .t~
Wallace Alexander, the secretary, H
p. Agee, and E. ID. Tenney supported
the resolution. Il
George F. Davies suggested 1t might
be- possible that certain things were
written or printed in reports which
] 1t might be well not to have publish
ed. There should be some safeguard
such as having the reports passed on
by the trustees before printing.
John A. Scott said it was not pro-
posed that the reports should be is
sued by the chairmen but by the as
ISOLATION secretary, therefore it was
quite probable that they would be ex-
AHMED by committee of the trus.
