 The Western Golf association believes that Americans understand golf and that they play under different conditions than those in other countries and that Amer jeans are entirely capable of forrnulat- ing the proper rules for playing the game
 CHANGES ADVISABLE in this country.
 The Western Golf association believes further that changes in the rules of golf may be advisable from time to time, as our knowledge of the game increases. or as existing rules prove to be unpop- ular or unsuitable to the conditions un- der which Americans play the game. The rules of golf as published by St. Andrews should be rewritten in re- sronse to the popular demand for set of understandable rules covering the playing conditions in this country.
 With these facts before them and after serious consideration the directors of the Western Golf association have recommended the adoption of new con- stituton looking towards an American organization. representative of America and prepared to promote the best inter- ests of the game for Americans
