Under new business Dr. Hughes stated that owing to the 
appointment of a non-gradnate to the position of State Veteri¬ 
narian, that he intended sending in his resignation as an Assist¬ 
ant State Veterinarian, as he would not consent to work under 
or assist in any way a non-gradnate. This decision was received 
with applause from the members present. Dr. Ryan followed 
Dr. Hughes, who also stated that he intended resigning for the 
same reasons, and he hoped that all the assistants through¬ 
out the state would do likewise. A report was made that other 
assistants not present would also resign. Moved by Dr. E. L. 
Quitman, seconded by Dr. Robinson, that the Secretary have 
letters printed, which he shall send to all graduate veterinarians 
in the state, asking those who are now assistant state veterinar¬ 
ians to resign, and those who are not to refuse any appointment 
under the present State Veterinarian or any other non-graduate 
State Veterinarian, should any appointment be offered to them. 
That the Secretary give the letters the greatest publicity possi¬ 
ble in all veterinary journals, farm papers, daily papers and to 
the medical profession and public generally, both domestic and 
foreign. That as the Governor has paid no attention to the re¬ 
quest of the profession to the matter and has appointed the said 
non-graduate in direct opposition to the welfare of. the profession 
and the people of the state when requested privately not to do 
so, that we now as a profession do all we possibly can to re¬ 
deem the profession from its present condition by interesting the 
public at large. Moved by Dr. Hughes, seconded by Dr. Ryan, 
that at the next regular monthly meeting, June loth, the mem¬ 
bers of the society have a banquet. Carried. 
It was suggested that the Legislative Committee read a 
paper at the banquet divided into sections among the commit¬ 
tee setting forth the proper course of getting a bill through our 
City Council. Also as to meat and milk inspection for the city 
and how such offices can be placed under the care of veter¬ 
inarians.
