bill to amend the first section of tbs
Behring sea sot of the sixth instant by
substituting the word “inclusive” tot
the word “exclusive,” so that it shall
not be lawful to kill, capture or pursue
seals within the gone of 60 geographic

not subscribe to the reasons leading to
the conclusion reached and will submit
a minority report in expressing their
