Letter from
The President
Dear Members:
It is never tasteful to broach the
subject of raising funds. It is im-
possible, however, for your as-
sociation to operate efficiently
without the necessary resources.
We must rely in the main on our
income from dues to accomplish
our many tasks. If you have not
paid your dues, it would be greatly
appreciated if you would do so as
soon as possible. Please keep in
mind that you can be a sustaining
member or a contributing member
the details of which are printed on
your dues notice.
The Committees and their chair-
men for the year 1964-1965 have
all been selected and a printed list
of all of them will be mailed to the
members in the near future. Many
of the new Committees have al-
ready met and passed on important
matters that arose during the sum-
mer months.
In many cases these Committees
need funds to carry on their im-
portant work. At the end of each
year the chairmen of the more ac-
tive Committees are requested to
send to our Executive Secretary a
proposed budget of expenses. This
information is then turned over to
our Budget, Finance and Dues
Committee to assist in preparing a
projected budget of expenses of the
Bar Association for the ensuing
year.
It is no secret that we are operat-
ing on a very close margin finan-
cially. We are trying to be as careful
as possible in our spending but we
know you would not wish us to

Session, the New York State
Senate Committee on Judiciary

edies therefor at 10:00 A. M.,
October 16, 1964, Buffalo State
Office Building, 65 Court Street,

All interested persons are in-
vited to attend and give testi-
mony. Persons intending to ap-
pear are requested to notify E.

Annual Legal
Checkup Drive
To Open Oct. 18
The Bar Association of Erie
County, in cooperation with the
New York State Bar Association,
will begin the promotion of the
annual legal checkup on October
18, 1964. You will all get literature
and information concerning this
program and we hope that you will
give it your full support and co-
operation.
It has been found in other areas
in the United States where this has
occurred that it has been a fine
service to the public and a good
means of establishing lawyer-client
relations with persons who should
have lawyers but have not been
made conscious of it prior to this
campaign.

Ay  J%  '  .  V  j.3
In the course of belonging to
many legal societies and bar as-
sociation sections and committees,
I have attended many meetings of
varying degrees of interest and ef-
fectiveness. At the top of my list,
however, I must place the meeting
of the International Bar Association
in Mexico City held from the 27th
to the 31st of July, during this past
summer.
The combination of gracious
Mexican hospitality, interesting
topics, presented by informed per-
sons and commented on by persons
representing almost every country
in the free world, and a spirit of
camaraderie which led to informal
discussions by those attending of
problems common and some not so
common, in the practice of law
throughout the world, made the en-
tire trip a meaningful, eventful and
pleasant experience.
Both the president and the presi-
dent-elect of Mexico spoke at the
