morninj:^ pr().i;i'jmiiii<'. I( wond Stive Ji IKllc liiiic if Mr. Slicppanl 

 would tell us JHsl how lie defines those points, there beiii*^ for.r 

 I>;ipers. 



MR. SllJ:i'l*AKl): First, the roimsylvaniu pro^n-aiimie, the 

 third, the chestnut bli«;ht and the future of the forests, and the 

 fourlli, the chestnut hli^lit and constructive conservation. Th(; 

 second ilein (reports of the State Foresters), is one that AV(tnld 

 be so i^cneral that it seems to me we could hardly i^ct very far 

 with it. 



THE CIlAliiMAX: It is nu)\Td, then, that we ronrni.' di.s- 

 cussiou to those three subjects, remarks to be linii (cd to three 

 niiunles, which, of course, would govern except by exception 

 beini;' made by unanimous consent. 



TKOFEISSOK CLINTON, of Connecticut: AVhat is this? 

 A rennsylvania Conference, or a Conference of the Ciiited 

 States? 



THE CllAlliiMAN: Are (liei-e olher remaiks? 



rUOFESSOK irOl'KtXS, of Washin-lon: It nii-lil be well, 

 Mi*. (Miaii'man, to state some additional subjects tiiat are to Lm^ 

 prcsculcd (his luiu-ninii', to be taken into consideration alonnthis 

 line. \\v >\(»uld like to discuss the insects before we are tlircMiiih. 



TllJ'] CIIAIKMAN : Tliere have been nunuM-ons sugiicstions 

 that we should i;ive some attention to insects. 



MU. TEIKCE: I think it would be well for that rescdution 

 to carry this morninji-, not in order to cut off discussion, but 

 because the programme this morning was formed for constructive 

 work and for utilization ; and I think it would be well if we would 

 carry out that line this morning-. An opportunity will be given 

 this afternoon, I should think, for all other subjects to be pre- 

 sented. If we contine ourselves to the one thing that is specially 

 mentioned in those three subjects, I think we can get more effec- 

 tive work that if we try to have a diverse discussion this morn- 

 ing. 



THE CHAIRMAN : If you observe the subjects on tlie pro- 

 gramme I think you will find that they would not confine discus- 

 sion to Pennsylvania questions. Are there further remarks?
