42 Thirty-fourth Annual Meeting. 
taken just such action as is proposed by this resolution, and the 
action proposed by Mr. Shiras of Pennsylvania; and so thinking 
it all over I have wondered whether or not we ought not to 
broaden this resolution soas to get the state legislatures in action 
also. I do not offer an amendment, but offer a suggestion for 
you to think about. 
Mr. Fullerton: I think that is In the resolution. 
Mr. Clark: I do not think so. 
Mr. Joslyn: I think it merely calls the matter to the atten- 
tion of our members of congress, but I think we ought to get 
after our state legislatures. 
Mr. Meehan: I think Mr. Fullerton is right. 
(Resolution read. ) 
Mr. Joslyn: I believe that resolution is all right. 
Mr. North: Would it not be well to put in there that they 
cede their rights as far as fishing is concerned ? 
Mr. Clark: It is not necessary. They have not any other 
rights in the waters except the fishing rights. 
Mr. Meehan: I think they have. 
Mr. Fullerton: Not in the Lakes. Congress regulates the 
commerce of the Great Lakes. 
Mr. Joslyn: Within the three mile limit I think it is with- 
in the state jurisdiction. 
Mr. Clark: Then there is a little loop-hole there—nothing 
is said about fish. 
Mr. Fullerton: Iam willing to have the resolution changed 
by inserting the words “fisheries of the” before the words “Great 
Lakes” where they first occur. 
Mr. Worth: I would like to ask the question whether the 
committee that drew the resolution intended that to apply only 
to rivers lying between states, or to include rivers which cross a 
number of states ? 
Mr. Meehan: That would cover the Delaware and Missis-
