Mr. "Wright: As eliairman of the resolution cominittee I submit 

 the following for the approval of the members present : 



Resolved, That the thanks of this association are tendered the 

 Mayor and Commercial Club of the city of Cedar Rapids and to 

 W. L. Cherry for his efforts in contributing to the success of this 

 meeting, and Ave express our appreciation for the music by the Im- 

 perial Quartette, Mr. E. C. Lytton and also the speakers who ap- 

 pear upon the program. 



Resolved, That this association is opposed to the fraudulent sale 

 or use of oleomargarine ; that we believe that a yellow color permits 

 and encourages such fraudulent use and that we demand from our 

 representatives in Congress support for such legislation as may be 

 necessary to prevent the fraudulent sale of that product. 



Resolved, That we pledge our moral and financial support both as 

 individuals and as an association to the National Dairy Union in 

 any efforts undertaken against the fraudulent sale of oleomargarine. 



Resolved, AYhereas an effort has been made to increase the freight 

 rates on less than carload shipments of butter, and, whereas, we 

 believe such increase would be detrimental to the best interests of 

 the dairy industry, therefore be it 



Resolved, That this association is opposed to any increase in the 

 freight rates upon butter and will oppose such increase by any 

 means in its power and that the officers of the association are au- 

 thorized to take any action they may deem necessary in accordance 

 with the spirit of this resolution. 



Mr. Wright: I move the adoption of the resolutions as read. 

 (Adopted.) 



President: It has been suggested that we organize a sort of a 

 boosters club here among the traveling men. This association ap- 

 preciates these fellows and we need their co-operation. There is no 

 organization among them and it has been suggested that something 

 be done at this meeting. I therefore ask all the traveling men to 

 stay for just a few moments after adjournment and perfect this 

 organization if possible. 



Mr. Mortensen moved that the president of this association be in- 

 cluded in the Andrews resolution.
