LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE

"The Legislative Committee of the North Dakota Bar Association will meet at Bismarck, North Dakota on Monday, February, 2nd, 1925, at 9:00 A. M. at Supreme Court Library, Memorial Building. All members of the Committee are requested to be present as important matters will be considered. The meeting is called for a two-fold purpose: first, to make plans for introducing bills, carrying out the recommendations of the State Bar Association at the Jamestown meeting; and secondly, to co-operate with any other Committees of the Association which are interested in legislation. It will be recalled that the Legislative Committee was charged with certain duties pertaining to recommendations of the State Association, while considerable legislation was left with the committees which had proposed it. The meeting is fixed at a time when it is hoped most of the routine legislation will be out of the way. There is no legislation in which the Committee is interested that is of a partisan nature, and the Committee will not assist in the passage of or defeat of partisan legislation. Changes must be made in the present laws and new laws must be adopted in order to keep pace with the advancing lines of civilization.

"The Chairman sent to each member of the Committee the recommendations made at the State meeting in Jamestown sometime ago, but only a few of the members have replied. It is to be hoped that all members of the Legislative Committee will take the trouble to reply to the communication within the next few days."

J. F. T. O'Connor.

Chairman.
