106 American Fisheries Society 



Wednesday Afternoon Session, September 11th. 



Secretary Titcomb called the attention of the members pres- 

 ent to the necessity of meeting their annual dues in order to keep 

 up the publications of the Society. He also urged them to use 

 their influence in securing a larger membership for the Society, 

 pointing out the fact that the publications of the Society afford the 

 only means for commissioners and fish culturists to keep abreast 

 of the times in this particular subject. 



REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON TIME AND PLACE OF MEETING. 



Mr. John P. Woods, Chairman, reported that the committee 

 had met in joint session with a similar committee from the 

 International Association of Fish and Game Commissioners. 

 Invitations were considered from Jacksonville, Chicago, Phila- 

 delphia, Buffalo, St. Louis, Louisville and Albuquerque. 



The Committee recommended that the invitation presented 

 by Mr. Theo. Roualt, Jr., State Game Warden of New Mexico, to 

 hold the 1919 meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico, be accepted, 

 and that the time be set for the week beginning Monday, Sept. 15. 



The report of the Committee was not acted on at once, but 

 later in the meeting Mr. Wm. C. Adams, of Massachusetts, pre- 

 sented a motion to the effect that the Society designate Albu- 

 querque, New Mexico, as the next place of meeting, provided that 

 in the opinion of the Executive Committee at or near the usual 

 time for issuing the annual announcement, war conditions warrant 

 meeting at that place, and provided further that other conditions, 

 in the opinion of the Executive Committee warrant the calling 

 of the meeting at Albuquerque. 



This motion was unanimously carried.
