Abstract

Since the last meeting of our Society, the Government of our country has found it necessary to give ever increasing attention to the problems that have been brought upon us by the armed strife that is taking place on the continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa. Every member of this Society is familiar with the program that is going forward to insure the defense of our country and to provide supplies to other countries that are fighting to maintain the same sort of independence and freedom which we prize.

As we come together for this the thirty-fourth annual meeting of our Society, we find that many of our younger members have enlisted or been called into military training by selective service. Many others have dropped their regular work temporarily to assume positions of leadership and guidance in essential though non-military phases of the defense program.

¹ Delivered before the Thirty-fourth Annual Meetings of the American Society of Animal Production. Nov. 28–30, 1941. Chicago, Illinois.
