We certify that the accompanying report, showing total receipts for the year of $102,233.83 including cash on hand at the beginning, and disbursements of $89,467.35, is a correct summary of said books and accounts. We secured statements from the banks, confirming the funds on deposit as stated, and we examined the securities in the Albany Safe Deposit Co., where they are deposited for safe keeping and found them correct and in agreement with the list. Respectfully submitted, NEW YORK STATE AUDIT Co., President. REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CINCINNATI, OHIO, August 31, 1921. To the American Bar Association: The Executive Committee reports with profound sorrow the death of the President of the Association, William A. Blount, of Pensacola, Florida, which occurred on June 15, 1921. President Blount attended the mid-winter meeting of the Executive Committee at New Orleans, and presided over its sessions. Although at the time a great sufferer, he then displayed no indication of his illness, but continued to perform the duties devolving upon him as President of the Association and as Chairman of the Executive Committee until a few weeks prior to his death. The Executive Committee unanimously selected the last retiring President, Hampton L. Carson, of Pennsylvania, as acting President of the Association until the next regular election. The committee furthermore invited James M. Beck, of New York, to prepare and deliver an address at the annual meeting in lieu of the President's address. The Executive Committee met at New Orleans, Louisiana, January 5, 6 and 7, 1921. Many matters of detail in the work of the Association were brought before, and passed upon by the committee, as more fully appears from the minutes of those meetings. The committee has kept in close touch with the Board of Editors of the AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION JOURNAL, now completing its first year as a monthly periodical. In January the committee conferred personally with the Board of Editors of the JOURNAL in New Orleans, and in April the sub-committee of the Executive Committee again conferred with the Board of Editors of the JOURNAL at Chicago. Numerous details concerning the general policy of the JOURNAL were discussed and acted upon. |
