position in ecouomlc entomology. For two years past, the committee has 

 failed to looli over in advance of the meeting the list of associate members 

 with any care to decide upon those that should be raised to active member- 

 ship, the rule requiring that the committee should do this. The list pre- 

 sented this year, therefore, is especially long. It is a difficult thing, in 

 many cases, to find out exactly the comparative merits in a long list that 

 needs to be examined, and injustice may result in some instances.
