The Conference consists of Commissioners and Associate Members from every state. Annual Conferences are held to deliberate on proposed uniform and model statutes for submission to state legislatures. The Kansas commissioners, as established by statute, are called an advisory committee to the Kansas Commission on Interstate Cooperation and are appointed by its Chairman with the advice of the President of the Bar Association of the State of Kansas. The Associate Member from each state, as established by the constitution of the National Conference, is the officer in charge of bill drafting for the state legislature. Kansas commissioners are Judge Spencer A.. Gard, Iola; Attorney Paul L. Wilbert, Pittsburg; and Dean John E. Howe, Topeka. The Kansas Associate Member is Revisor of Statutes, Franklin Corrick, Topeka. Founded in 1892, the National Conference seeks to promote uniformity in state laws on all subjects where uniformity is deemed desirable and practical. Some of the outstanding examples of the National Conference's efforts are the Negotiable Instruments Act, the Warehouse Receipts Act, the Stock Transfer Act, the Narcotic Drug Act, Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act, Criminal Extradition Act and Gifts to Minors Act which are the law in practically every state. Kansas has adopted all of these acts. This year's Conference considered uniform act regarding nuclear facilities liability, non-residents income taxes, death tax credits, a code of military justice, and numerous other subjects. This week-long National Conference preceded the opening of the American Bar Association's annual meeting in St. Louis the week of August 7, 1961.
