the opinion that the old-fashioned classes should not be encouraged next year. The problem with which we were concerned was to discuss how to elevate the moral standard of our country. Therefore, the Board deemed that it be necessary to appoint a committee to formulate a number of questions concerning religious as well as moral problems of our country.

The Bible should be internationally and impartially studied. In the second place, it should be our duty to introduce to our students the discussion groups. Certainly it should also be our duty to exercise our personal influence to lead men to churches on Sundays. (b). Service.

1. Concrete service such as the meeting of students giving reception new students, etc.

2. To make friends. It should be the duty of the American secretaries of our Association to make connections with American homes. It has been deemed wise to invite students individually rather than in big groups.

3. Summer Employment. Our secretaries should make connections early in the spring so as to help as many of our students as possible to secure summer employment to get experience as well as some means for their next year's studies.

4. Welfare Work. Work for our compatriots in the different Chinatown districts should be greatly encouraged. As far as possible everything should be worked out locally. The Central Executive Board of our Association should be only a promoting agency.

5. Magazines. The Board agreed to continue the policy of last year, that is, to publish our paper eight times a year. A committee on publications should be appointed by the President with the approval of the Board.

6. Introduction for our students to American Institutions. As far as possible our Secretaries should help our students to get connected with some American institutions or commercial firms so as to get valuable experience because our students wish to get many more things than they can get in their schools.

IV. DEFINITION OF RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FRIENDLY RELATIONS COMMITTEE. Mr. E. Yelton, Associate Secretary of the Friendly Relations Committee, was invited to discuss with us our relationship with the Friendly Relations Com

mittee. Our Association preferred that the Friendly Relations Committee should have one of the five votes of the Central Executive Board and to send a man to audit the accounts of our Association. We would appreciate the help of the Friendly Relations Committee in every respect. We wished to have a clear understanding especially with regard to finances. We wished only to get a certain amount of outright appropriations every year and we ourselves would pay all the expenses incurred in the Central Office.

V. BUDGET. Mr. Alfred Lee, Treasurer, and Mr. K. C. Lee, General Secretary, submitted to the Central Executive Board a tentative budget. After careful correction, it was passed by the Board.

REPORT OF EX-TREASURER

Dear Fellow Members:

July 24, 1920.

As the present academic year has come to an end, it is my duty to submit to you a report of the accounts of this year (August 1919-July 1920), showing the conditions of the treasury of the Association at the end of this administrative period. I would have presented my report at the Silver Bay Conference had it not been due to the fact that several important accounts and statements could not be submitted to me at that time.

In order to make my report as brief and yet as clear as possible, I wish to classify it under two headings: (1) an analysis of the receipts and expenditures of the Association from August 4, 1919, to July 24, 1920; (2) a brief summary of the results of this year's financial campaign and membership dues.

(1) A. Receipts

Appropriation

..$1,150.00

Balance from last year (including sums turned in later) 2,261.79

The difference between the total income of $7,156.75 and the total outlay of $5,728.76 is $1,427.99—the balance left over from *Including the allotments to secretaries.
