Whereas, It has come to our knowledge that several unqual- 
fiecl men are now applicants for positions of dairy and meat in¬ 
spectors in Denver, and that unqualified men have recently been 
appointed to similar positions in the state of Colorado, and 
Whereas, The State of Colorado is spending much money in 
educating men at the State Agricultural College especially for 
this work, and there are many qualified men in the state who are 
available for these positions, therefore be it 
Resolved, That we hereby protest against such practice and 
respectfully request that in the interests of the public health and 
fairness to the veterinary profession, that only men be appointed 
to positions requiring a knowledge of veterinary sanitary sci¬ 
ence as can qualify professionally. Signed: 
Geo. H. Glover, 
Chas. G. Lamb, 
V. J. Ayres.

send a copy to Mayor-elect Arnold of Denver and to the veterina¬

three graduate veterinarians were appointed.)
