THE DEPARTMENT'S POSITION. 



[Concluded from page 62.] 

 the objection made to it by the legis- 

 lative committee of the National Asso- 

 ciation of Nurserymen. This commit- 

 tee expressed itself as recognizing the 

 need of legislation, but desired certain 

 changes made in the proposed bill, and 

 in response to their request the bill was 

 withdrawn for conference and amend- 

 ment. The principal objection of the 

 nurserymen had been to the examina- 

 tion of the imported stock at port of 

 entry. This objection was met by pro- 

 viding for such examination at the point 

 of destination, on the premises of the 

 importer. A number of other changes 

 were also made at the instance of the 

 nurserymen, including all the impor- 

 tant ones asked for except the elimina- 

 tion of the power of establishing for- 

 eign quarantine against particular 

 plants to keep out diseases or insect 

 pests which could not otherwise be ex- 

 cluded. This provision was aimed par- 

 ticularly at such dangers as the potato 

 wart disease and the white-pine blistcv 

 rust, which no inspection or disinfec 

 tion would reach, and would seldom, if 

 ever, apply to the regular import trade 

 of seedling nursery stock, and, if the 

 bill was to have any real value, this 

 power could not be omitted. 



"The bill, as thus amended, was in- 

 troduced during the second session of 

 the Sixty-first Congress, and was fa- 

 vorably reported from the Agricultural 

 Committee of the House on January G, 

 1911. Owing to the legislative condi- 

 tions of the concluding session of this 

 Congress and the low place of this bill 

 on the calendar, to get a consideration 

 of the subject, it was necessary to put 

 the bill on the Unanimous Consent Cal- 

 endar. In this manner the bill came 

 up for consideration February 6, was 

 objected to by a member, and fell back 

 to its regular place. Near the closing 

 days of the session the bill was again 

 brought up on the Unanimous Consent 

 Calendar. No opportunity was possible 

 in the few minutes allowed for debate 

 to present the merits of the measure, 

 and.it failed to secure the necessary 

 two-thirds vote to pass it under sus- 

 pension of the rules. ^_
