92 CONFERENCE ON MILK PROBLEMS 



The motion, then, is amended to read, "Resolved that it is the 

 sense of this Conference that milk should not be retailed loose, 

 but should only be sold after proper bottling." I think I have the 

 sense of that, at any rate, if not the exact form. Are there any 

 remarks upon the motion? Are you ready for the question? 



A viva voce vote was taken. 



THE CHAIRMAN: Again the Chair is in doubt. All those in 

 favor are requested to hold up their hands, and those opposed 

 to do likewise. The ayes have it, and the motion prevails, as 

 amended. 



DR. WILE: The last resolution to be presented, I presume, will 

 create just as much enthusiasm as those which have gone before. 

 The best part of these resolutions lies in the fact that they pro- 

 mote just the discussion that we are having. These resolutions 

 are not framed to be passed. That was not the purpose of the 

 committee in entertaining the resolutions. The purpose was that 

 of having the practical crystallization of sentiment along some 

 line, after discussion. Whether or not the resolutions are adopted 

 in no way concerns the one who is introducing them, nor does it 

 matter to the committee that has passed upon them, nor does it 

 matter to the New York Milk Committee, nor to any other organi- 

 zation that I know of. But the results of your discussions here 

 are all being carefully taken down by the stenographer and will 

 be preserved for future generations. 



The last resolution, Mr. Chairman, is: 



"Resolved, That it is the sense of this conference that the 

 sale of milch cows which have not been tuberculin tested and 

 found free from tuberculosis should be prohibited throughout 

 the United States." 



My attention has just been called to a question that might be 

 present in the minds of some of you. This does not mean that 

 the use of cows for the purposes of beef is in anywise interfered 

 with, but cows for the production of milk. That is the intent 

 and purpose of this resolution. 



THE CHAIRMAN: You have heard the resolution. What is your 

 pleasure? 



(It was moved and seconded that the resolution be adopted.) 



MR. CAMPBELL: I would like to ask if you will be good enough 

 to have the resolution read again. 



(Resolution again read.) 



MR. CAMPBELL: That would be a good thing to pass if you 

 want us all to go out of the milk business.
