ANIMALS’ PROTECTION SOCIETY
PRESIDENT’S STATEMENT In a statement yesterday on the report of the meeting of the Animals’ Protection Society on Thursday evening, printed in “The Press” yesterday morning, the president of the society. Mr R. D. Martin, said:— “When it was discovered that the meeting room was not available because of a. misunderstanding, it was unanimously agreed that the meeting should be adjourned. I appealed to the requisitioners to agree to the adjournment to the annual meeting,” said Mr Martin, “but they would not agree to this. A resolution that the meeting be adjourned until next week was defeated by an amendment that the business be deferred until the annual meeting. It was unnecessary to have a vote of no-confidence or any other resolution, since the meeting unanimously decided that no business should be done. I closed the meeting and was naturally not called upon to give any ruling, since no motion could have been put to the meeting. All the members remained until the end of the meeting.”
