Executive Committee 



President Rider : Gentlemen, I think it would be best to take 

 up in the first place the reports of the Secretary — Treasurer for 

 your action. 



Mr. Brooks : I move that the reports be accepted and approved. 

 President Rider: Is that motion seconded? 

 (The motion was seconded). 



Mr. Howell : I am only interested in one item of the Treas- 

 urer's report, and that has to do with the fees received from the 

 counties. Will the Secretary give some details as to just what that 

 means ? 



(Secretary Headlee reads from report). 

 Mr. Howell: Where does this money come from? 

 Secretary Headlee: It comes from the county mosquito com- 

 missions. 



President Rider: That is according to the assessment, accord- 

 ing to the agreed upon assessment. 

 Mr. Howell : It has been paid ? 

 President Rider : Yes. 



Mr. Howell: It comes out of the appropriation that the free- 

 holders give to the different county commissions ?
