Report of the Committee on Resolutions 



Your Committee on Resolutions reports to the Fifth Annual 

 Meeting of the New Jersey Mosquito Extermination Association 

 on February i, 19 18. 



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

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

 entertained, 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 o£ 

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



3. That we are very much encouraged by the good report made to us from 

 the various counties and are more than ever convinced that we can practi- 

 cally exterminate the mosquito, and that the state and the various counties 

 and municipalities are justified in expending moneys for this object; that 

 the board of freeholders be taken into the confidence of the commission and 

 as far as practicable be urged to become acquainted with the work and that 

 a more co-operative spirit between the various county commissions be en- 

 couraged. 



4. That we go on record as absolutely endorsing the action of the Execu- 

 tive Committee in asking the sum of $100,000 from the State for mosquito 

 extermination work, and that we justify such expenditure because we know 

 how necessary this work is and how important it is that the work be pushed 

 more rapidly. 



5. That we deeply regret the inability of our past president, Dr. Ralph 

 H. Hunt, and our members, Dr. Frederick Sell, Mr. Russell W. Gies and Mr. 

 Jesse B. I^eslie, to attend and strengthen our sessions, but that we are proud 

 of the fact that they are able to do their professional bit in the prosecution 

 of the great war. 



6. That the secretary be instructed to send the best wishes of the asso- 

 ciation to them.
