regard to the injustice of the double 

 license system in effect at the present 

 time on commercial vehicles. This pro- 

 vides that not only a state tax be paid 

 on such vehicles^ but also a city tax of 

 $5. Mr. Sneider explained how on large 

 trucks a tax of $75 went to the state 

 and only $5 to the city, yet the city 

 streets are most dejireci.-ited by the 

 trucks. Mr. Sneider felt that only one 

 tax should be levied and that should be 

 levied by the state and prorated to the 

 city, according to the weight and travel 

 done upon its streets. President Hitz 

 appointed a committee to investigate 

 the situation to see what could be done. 

 This committee consists of E. E. Tem- 

 perley, cliairnuin, and Albin Sehreiber. 



Committee Reports. 



A. F. J. Banr spoke in behalf of the 

 program committee and stated that the 

 October meeting would be held, as usual, 

 about the first Tuesday in October and 

 that some of the features of the meet- 

 ing would be a talk by Harry Dietz, 

 assistant state entomologist, and lan- 

 tern slides of the international show 

 held at New York. Mrs. Ella Grant 

 Wilson will also furnish some slides for 

 the meeting. ^Ir. Baur suggested that 

 the October meeting be made a visiting 

 day, to visit greenhouses in and about 

 Indianapolis. Irwin Bertermaun put 

 this into due form of a motion, which 

 was seconded by E. E. Temperley and 

 carried unanimously. Tlie good of the 

 club committee was assigned to make 

 the arrangements. Mr. Baur also spoke 

 of the splendid displays of dahlias and 

 gladioli made by ^Ir. Barnes and A. E. 

 Kunderd, respectively, at the state fair. 

 In resj)onse, Mr. Barnes gav(> an en- 

 lightening talk upon dahlia culture.

 meeting with them, which was accepted.

President Hitz commended Mr. Black- 

 man upon his ability and fairness as 

 judge at the fair exhibits and called 

 upon the latter for some remarks. Mr. 

 Blackman exjiressed his appreciation of 

 llie disjilays and praised the enthusiasm 

 shown. lie felt, liowever, that tlie ex-

 ley's, thanked Mr. Blackman for his im- 

 partial decisions.
