February, '13] ENTOMOLOGISTS' PROCEEDINGS 21 



Mr. E. p. Felt: It seems to me that we ought to act first on the 

 report of the committee on amending the Constitution and I move 

 that the report of this committee be adopted. 



By vote of the Association the report was adopted. 



President W. D. Hunter: We will now consider the report of the 

 Committee on Affiliation as made by Mr. Symons. What is your 

 pleasure? 



Mr. T. B. Symons: In order to bring this matter before the Asso- 

 ciation for consideration and discussion, I move that the report be 

 accepted. 



Mr. W. C. O'Kane: I should like to ask if it is the understanding 

 that the members of the Association of Horticultural Inspectors and 

 Apiary Inspectors be admitted as members of this Association. 



Mr. T. B. Symons: Membership in this Association will, accord- 

 ing to the report, be subject to the same requirements as hereto- 

 fore. The members of the Association of Horticultural Inspectors 

 and Apiary Inspectors who do not at the present time belong to 

 this Association will be admitted if recommended by our member- 

 ship committee. 



Mr. W. C. O'Kane: Have you both active and associate members 

 in the Association of Horticultural Inspectors? 



Mr. T. B. Symons: Yes; but at the present time there are only a 

 small number of Horticultural Inspectors who are not already members 

 of this Association. 



Mr. W. C. O'Kane: Can you tell me how many members of the 

 Apiary Inspectors Association are members of this Association? 



Mr. Wilmon Newell: Possibly fifteen or twenty members of this 

 Association are now active members of the Association of Apiary 

 Inspectors. 



President W. D. Hunter: Is there any further discussion? If 

 not, I will now put the motion to accept the report of this committee. 

 The motion was duly carried. 



At the afternoon session, January 2, the following report was sub- 

 mitted by the Committee on International Congress of Entomologists,

 sions the authority of a thoroughly representative body. To this end we hope that
