The President called for the report of the Committee on Correspondence for New Members.

Dr. Westmoreland, the Chairman, said: Your committee found on investigation that they had absolutely no rule to go by or that had been outlined, so that we mapped out a method which we think will have the effect of increasing the membership of the Association for which this committee was created. When the committee began its work, it conceived the idea that we should organize as thoroughly and as rapidly as

possible, making a more or less complete directory of the State, and that in doing its work it should attempt to reach men who are not members of the Association rather than trying to do its work through men who are already affiliated with it. In carrying out this idea we have organized a more or less complete directory of the State, and I suppose we have from 1,500 to 2,000 names. We made the following suggestions to the Committee on New Constitution and By-Laws, which I will read from section 7, article V., of the By-Laws.

"Committee on New Members shall consist of a Chairman appointed by the President, and one other member from each county in the State, who shall be appointed by the chairman. The duties of this committee shall be to make as complete a directory of the regular physicians in the State and at such times as they deem best to issue a circular letter to these physicians, requesting them to become members of this Association and attend its meetings.

"Each member of this committee will send to the Chairman as accurate and complete a list of the regular physicians residing in his own and adjoining counties as possible."

We think by organizing the committee on those lines and having a membership in each one of the different counties of the State of at least 136, who are interested in the work of the Association, we will be able to increase not only the membership but the interest which has been taken in it. As far as possible, during the past year we have carried out this plan, and while it is incomplete and will be for the next year or two, we think by organizing on this line we will increase both the membership and interest which is taken in the Association by the individual members of the regular profession of the State. In this way, we will accomplish what the Association is intended for.

The President:

What will you do with this report?

Dr. Duncan: I move that it be accepted.

Seconded and carried.

The President: We will now listen to the report of the Committee on Constitution and By-Laws, Dr. Willis F. Westmoreland, Chairman.

Dr. Westmoreland: Your Committee on Constitution and By-Laws has had a rather hard task in preparing the report which they submit to you to-day. In looking over the Constitution and By-Laws which we have been following in the past, we find rules of the Association have been more conspicuous by their absence than presence in the By-Laws. In looking over the Transactions since 1872 and following the different resolutions and amendments which have been adopted at various meetings, we find very few of them have been transferred to their proper sections after having been adopted. These resolutions when adopted were never transferred to their proper place in the Constitution and By-Laws. A few of those which have been transferred were absolutely inconsistent in regard to their action. So, in compiling this report, your committee have had to a great extent to do away with the present ByLaws, not so much with the Constitution, and have simply written it anew, conforming as far as possible to the precedents established, as seen in the minutes of the Association. The Constitution has to lie over for a year. changes will have to be made at this meeting and lie over, and when the matter comes up next year any amendment or amendments can be added to it at that time. I will now read the Constitution.
