which by its fullness and accuracy gives assurance that no court need be blind to the light given by other courts unless it be wilfully blind. The efficient Chairman of the Committee on the Appointment of and Attendance of Commissioners, noting the action of one of the great political parties treating the Panama Canal Zone as a separate political entity, communicated with the Governor of the Zone a request for the appointment of commissioners from the Zone to the Conference. The increase of shipping passing through the Canal and the consequent increase of commercial importance would appear to make very desirable a representation in this body, and it is hoped that the request for the appointment of commissioners will be complied with. Much matter for the consideration of the Committee on Scope and Program and some matters for consideration of other committees, have been brought to my attention, and have been referred to the appropriate committees. I need not enumerate them, but because of the source from which they come I call specially to your attention two resolutions of the Louisiana Bar Association-one requesting this Conference to "prepare and present in due course to the different states for adoption a model uniform law on the subject of Health Insurance," and the other requesting the Conference " to amend the uniform divorce law as prepared by the National Divorce Congress in 1906 and approved by the Conference in 1907, so as to make the jurisdictional provisions thereof conform to the rules laid down by the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Haddock versus Haddock, 201 U. S. 562." They are submitted for your consideration. Under the authority of the resolution passed by the Conference at its last meeting (Proceedings, 1919, p. 124), I, with the concurrence of the Chairman of the Executive Committee and the Secretary, have appointed Mr. George B. Young, one of the commissioners, to present to the Conference of Governors at its next meeting the "object and purpose of the work of this Conference." The excitation of the interest of the Executives of the states is of the largest importance, for in all cases other than very exceptional ones, their recommendations that general laws such as are proposed by us shall be enacted by the Legislatures, will meet with prompt and favorable response. Failures to act heretofore have, I am fain to believe, been due to nonacquaintance with our work and the want of interest in it, both of which will be overcome by a personal presentation to the Governors. Since our last meeting, the names of three of our colleagues. have been stricken from our rolls by the Great Effacer,-Death; of George Whitelock, who of his overflowing vitality, his ready resourcefulness, his ever present desire to help, and the fullness of his knowledge, gave largesse to all who knew him; of Francis M. Burdick, whose genial. personality, gentle persuasiveness and accurate grasp of fundamentals, made him a delightful as well as an invaluable associate in the proceedings of the Conference; and of Frederick N. Judson, who had just come to be one of us, but whose previous career as an author and publicist gave promise of the largest assistance to us in our labors. Other and as able and as efficient men can be found, and their places in the work of the Conference will be filled, and that work will go on. But their places in the lives of their colleagues will not be filled. Efficiency and pragmatism are not all of life. Outside of the up-and-doing part of a man, there is the impress of his personality upon the lives of his fellow men. This impress can never be duplicated by the personality of any other man. There are points of contact between each of two lives, which can exist between neither of them and any other life. And when that contact is broken there ensues a pain of regret which can never be stilled. * Will you permit me, as a personal ending of my official association with you as your President, to thank you most sincerely for the pleasure and profit which has come to me from that association. So far as my memory serves me, there has been no word from you to me or from me to you which I would have unsaid, and as to this and to your uniform kindness and courtesy to me and patience and forbearance with me, my aspiration is "Lord, keep my memory green."
