(Continued from Pae Kleven)
utlve committee Wfl have established
n monthly bulletin, which la publish
d In Chicago and edited by the sec
retary of your orRanif.atlon. In It you
will find mnny matters of Importance
to live stock exchanges, and to the
live stock Industry In general. We
feel that It fills a long felt need and
sk your recommendation fos the fu
ture.
A suggested at our last annual
-meeting by ex-President McClure, I
bave made every effort to get in clos
er touch with other national organi
tatlons lu the live stock industry. On
October 8th I addressed the annual
meeting of the National Swine Grow
ers' association at South Omaha on
the subject of the "Market End of
Swine Industry." On Tuesday. Oc!o
ber 16th, I made n talk at the Twelfth
annual meeting of the American Meat
Packers' association at Chicago, on
the subject of "The Mutual Interest
of the Packer and the Commission
"Man." In January of this year I fit
tended hut took no part In the annual
meeting of the American National
Live Stock association, and also the
annual meeting of the Nationel Wool
Growers' association, both of which
were held in Salt Lake City.
I think every effort should be made
to enlarge our sphere of usefulness
by getting in closer touch with the
various interests in the live stock
trade, and with this end in view I ad
dressed the annual meeting of Cruop
Kleven South Dakota Hankers' asso
ciation, on June 18th, and the Lara
mie County Cattle and Horse Men's
association at their annual meeting
held last June 'J 1st at Wheatland,
Wyoming.
At the suggestion of Mr. J. H. Mer
cer, president of the National Live
Stock Shipper's Protective league,
Mid with the approval of the majority
of our executive committee, I ap
pointed aspeclal conim'ttee consist
ing of K. 0. Brown, Of Chicago, L.
A. Lennon, of Kansas City. A. H.
Ttaker. of St. Joseph, II. O. Pierre, of
Sioux City, and C. A. McCormack. of
St. LoulS, to meet with a special com
mittee from the league with a view to
agreeing on a plan of unifying our
work, this plan to be submitted to
this convention for final adoption.
The meeting was held in Omaha on
Saturday. May 20th. I WM unfortun
ately detained in the west and did
not get home In time to attend. A
Teport of the results of that confer
ence will be made later In the session,
and I sincerely hope tha tslhtw mfwy
and I sincerely hope that this conven
tion can arrive at some solution of
this problem that will be satisfactory
to us all.
Iterommendnt Ions
From my observations of your af
fairs during the past year I would
like to make the following recom
mendations: That your executive committee be
given authority to name a temporary
chairman or a senior vice president,
who would have authority to act and
to sign vouchers during the absence
or inability of the president During
the past year I have been called away
Several times and I think there ought
to be someone designated who could
act in case of the absence of the pres
ident. That this exchange go on record as
being in favor of a liberal appropri
ation by congress and the various
states to lie used in stamping out tu
berculosis in cattle, hots and sheep.
That this body go on record as be
inc heartily in favor of a more uni
form system of quarantine laws and
hipping rules for the transportation
of live stork from one state to an
other. That the legislative committee be
Instructed to do all in its power to get
laws enacted providing for a more
uniform chattel mortgage law thru
out the different states.
That a strong effort be made to
unify the traffic work done by the Na
tional Shippers' Protective league and
the National Live Stock Exchange in
order that the producers' interests
may be better represented and dupli
cation of work avoided.
That teh bureau of markets be re
quested to take over the wiring of
market information and receipts
from one market to another, which
recommendation was made by the
United States Live Stock industry
committee at their conference in
Washington last September. This
work is now being done by the dif
ferent live stock exchanges
In elbsing. I wish to say that what
ever success has been achieved by
your organization during the past
year, a great measure of credit is due
to your worthy secretary'. 0. B. Heine
mann, for his very efficient services,
to the chairman and members of the
special committees, and to the mem
bers of your executive committee
who have given your affairs many
hours of valuable time and labor.
I also wish to thank the members
of the various exchanges for their
support and their courteous treat
meat during the last year.
