Papers 42 and 43 were not read, as Mr. Victor 

 Kutchin was prevented by illness from being pres- 

 ent. 



Paper 45 was not presented, as Mr. E. A. 

 Cleasby could not leave Iowa at this time because 

 his presence was necessary to provide for the ade- 

 quate protection of birds. In his absence, Mr. A. 

 C. Burrill read a letter from Mr. Cleasby, gave an 

 explanation of the present situation in Iowa, and 

 presented in some detail the national work for the 

 protection of birds which is being done by Mr. 

 Cleasby.
