you believe It to be In all respects suitable for 

 the requirements of the situation. In the mean- 

 time our committee resolved to endorse my sug- 

 gestion for a bill to prevent the importation of 

 adulterated seeds unfit for planting, and to 

 pledge you our support to help to secure the 

 prompt passage of a hill covering this ground in 

 case you should consent to introduce and urge for 

 passage such a bill. 



The bill prohibiting the importation 

 of adulterated seed, or seed unfit for 

 planting, referred to in the last para- 

 graph, was subsequently endorsed by 

 the American Seed Trade Association at 

 the Atlantic City convention last June 

 and has been introduced in Congress by 

 Mr. Mann (by request) and will be up 

 for hearing before the Committee on 

 Interstate and Foreign Commerce at the 

 same time as the bill of which Mr. 

 Mann is the author. Mr. Mann originally 

 set the date for this hearing as 10 a. m, 

 January 17 at the committee's room at 

 the Capitol, but indicated that if this 

 date were not convenient for seedsmen 

 some postponement could be arranged.
