To the Editor of the *Nowrt-Cuina Dauwy News"
SmI note from the report of the BARA. Meeting yesterday that a vote of thanks, to the relring, committee Personally T heard we such expression feeling and can only conclude that the report was made up with "intel-Higent "anticipation" of what. should howe taken place, My purpose in writing this is to emphasize that the omission to prom ose and pass such a vote of thanks Felleets. badly on all those, myself included, who were present at the meeting, Such expressions of gratitude may have no intrinsic value but they have 1 value, without doubt, to those who have done the work, and certainly the warmest thanks of the members: of the Association should be tendered to the retiring committee for the Hood work they have done. T am sure that if such a vote had been Proposed it would have been passed with' acclamation, PW. Masser.
