April, ’23] discussion of uniform fumigation requirements 1 7 
It is a big subject and it is a thing that cannot be easily accomplished, 
but it is one I think that there is no disagreement about. 
Mr. F. F. Rockwell: I have no idea that the problem can be solved 
here, but I hope a resolution can be adopted showing that you accept 
the principles mentioned. As Dr. Marlatt has said, there are conflicting 
interests even among the nurserymen themselves that their own organ¬ 
ization will have to try to take care of. 
Mr. T. J. Headlee: I would like to offer a motion in order to get 
the sentiment of those present. 
Resolved , That it is the sense of this Section that a uniform U. S. 
tag should be required for interstate movement of nursery stock, and 
that the qualifying inspection should be worked out between the United 
States Department of Agriculture and the state authorities. 
The motion was carried. 
Mr. T. J. Headlee : The motion passed is all right but it is another 
thing to get the machinery to carry it out. I would therefore move that 
the chairman be empowered to appoint a committee consisting of a 
maximum of 5 to see what can be done toward working out this pro¬ 
position along practical lines. 
The motion was carried. 
Chairman E. N. Cory : The chairman, with the approval of President 
Ruggles, appointed the following members of this committee: T. J. 
Headlee, Chairman, F. M. O’Byrne, G. M. Bentley, E. C. Cotton and 
E. R. Sasscer. 
We have a committee that was appointed last year to consider the 
possiblity of greenhouse inspection. Mr. E. R. Sasscer is chairman and 
I would like to hear from him at this time. 
Mr. E. R. Sasscer: The committee mentioned was appointed last 
year. It was unfortunate in a way that the motion provided that the 
membership should be distributed geographically, This has made it 
necessary for the committee to depend entirely on correspondence, as it 
has never been able to meet. The problem is so complex that it is not 
possible to make a definite report at this session. I would request 
that the committee be continued to report next year, if possible. 
Upon motion, it was so voted. 
Chairman E. N. Cory: We will now listen to the report of the Nom¬ 
inating Committee. 
Mr. W. E. Britton: The committee recommend for chairman, Mr. 
P. A. Glenn; for secretary, Mr. E. R. Sasscer.
