The President — There are several other gentlemen upon 

 whom I wish to call, but before doing that I will ask the Com- 

 mittee on Resolutions to present its report. 



Mr. Hudson — Mr. Chairman, Mr. Miller is the chairman of 

 this committee, but he asked me to make this report. 



Report oe Committee on Resolutions. 



Your Committee on Resolutions reports to the third annual meeting of the 

 New Jersey Mosquito Extermination Association on February 18th, 1916, 

 that it recommends the following: 



1. Resolved, That we make known to the management of Hotel Traymore 

 our appreciation of the manner in which we have been received and enter- 

 tained, and also that all employees of said hotel have extended toward us 

 every possible courtesy. 



2. That we appreciate the faithful and able efforts put forth during the past 

 year by our officers and committees, and we are sure that by reason of their 

 work the cause for which we are striving has been greatly advanced. 



3. That we are enthused by all good reports made to us from the various 

 counties and we are indebted to the Board of Trade of Cape May County for 

 its thoughtf ulness in making known its sympathy with out work ; we also 

 refer to the action of Clinton Hill Improvement Association in sending a 

 delegate to our convention and commend its action to other civic bodies. 



4. We are. thoroughly convinced that we can practically exterminate the 

 mosquito and that the State and the various counties and municipalities are 

 justified in expending moneys for this object; that so far as the counties 

 are concerned, it is, for the present at least, absolutely necessary that the 

 mandatory appropriation clause be retained. We, therefore, urge that every 

 effort be made to defeat the proposed bill known as Assembly Bill No. 103, 

 introduced by Hon. George H. Dalrymple, of the county of Passaic. 



5. That each commission forward to its county representatives in the State 

 Legislature a copy of Resolution No. 4. 



6. That we go on record as absolutely endorsing the action of the State 

 Experiment Station in requesting the sum of $25,000 for mosquito extermina- 

 tion work, and that we justify such expenditure because we know how neces- 

 sary this work is and how much can be done toward its accomplishment. 



7. That we extend our thanks to Dr. Hunt, Dr. Lipman, Dr. Headlee, 

 Dr. Howard, and all others who have participated in our meeting and who 

 have brought before us the results of their work and investigations, and who, 

 by reason of their presence, and cooperation, have made us more than ever 

 determined to continue until the mosquito is altogether under control. 



Respectfully submitted, 



Fischer Mileer, 

 A. J. Rider, 

 Walter R. Hudson, 



Committee on Resolutio\ns.
