FRIDAY MORNING SESSION. 



AT1.ANT1C City, N. J., January 26, 1917. 

 The meeting was called to order at 8:30 A. M. by President 

 Darnall. 



President Darnai^l — Gentlemen, this is a business meeting. 

 Mr. Secretary, have you an order of business ? 



According to the Secretary, the first proposition we will take 

 up is a resolution with regard to the change of Constitution. 



Mr. Robert F. EngIvE — Mr. President, it seems very desir- 

 able that we should enlarge the Executive Committee in order 

 to retain our retiring Presidents in a position where their ex- 

 perience may be of most value to the Association. 



In the Constitution we read : "There shall also' be an Execu- 

 tive Committee composed of the officers ex officio and four mem- 

 bers selected at large. These persons shall be elected annually 

 at the regular annual meeting or convention of the Association." 



I offer the following amendment : 



I move to amend the Constitution of this Association by in- 

 serting in the fourth line of Article 3, after the words "ex 

 officio," the folloiwling: 



"The past Presidents of this Association for the first and 

 second years after the completion of their terms." 



President DarnaIvI^ — ^Is there a second to this motion ? 



Mr. Rider — I second the motion.
