 bership that the President of the Ibiited States and the gov- 

 ernors of the se\'eral states ha\e alread_\- been elected honor- 

 ;'.ry members of the Societv. 



Mr. 1m<.\xk N. Ceark. Xortlnille. Mich.: That will not 

 interfere. 



President: It strikes me that that would not inter- 

 fere, for the reason that the title has ])assed o\-er to other 

 men since the election. The election is of the man and not 

 of the office and under the circumstances it will be perfectly 

 proper to vote for President Taft and Secretary Nagel.
