RECORD OP PROCEEDINGS.

Mr. Paquet moved that all veterinarians should belong to the 
sanitary service. This amendment was rejected. 
Mr. Viseur argued that there should be a State Veterinarian, to 
whom private practice should be prohibited, and that all the 
other colleagues be his adjuncts as sanitary veterinarians. 
Mr. Bouley proposed a new reading of the article : “ The veter¬ 
inary sanitary service ought to employ the greatest number 
possible of veterinarians. It embraces the surveying of fairs 
and markets; of animals; the inspection of meat; that of 
slaughter-houses; the control of rendering places; the inspection 
of animals used for breeding purposes; the inspection or direc¬ 
tion of insurances against the mortality of animals ; the revision 
of census lists of domestic animals. * * * It compre¬ 
hends the State service, with its possibility of becoming inter¬ 
national ; especially embracing the repression and prevention of 
contagious diseases, and of epizootics, as well as the control of 
all other veterinary services.”

This was adopted by a large majority. 
Third Resolution. 
It was read by Mr. Zundel, who added: “ It often happens that 
when a contagious disease develops itself in a country, all other 
countries prohibit importations. This is a very detrimental 
measure. If it were possible to resort, as in the case of 
phylloxera, to internal regulations, that would be a great benefit.” 
Wirtz explained the international relations which have 
existed since 1873 between Holland and Germany, and between 
Holland and England, in reference to typhus. 
The third resolution was then adopted unanimously, and the 
meeting adjourned at 4 p. m.
