First American World's Dairy Congress a Success

ABSTRACT

The World's Dairy Congress which was held in Washington October 2 and 3, Philadelphia October 4, and Syracuse October 5 to 10, 1923, was attended by 231 delegates from 43 foreign countries, together with 1590 registered American delegates from 47 states and the District of Columbia, only one state not being represented; a total of 1821 registered delegates. Doubtless there were individuals who attended one or more of the 27 section meetings without registering.

Canada led with 100 delegates, England 22, Switzerland 12, Scotland 10, while the remaining 39 countries had from 1 to 9 each. Japan, Argentina, South Africa, and Russia are suggestive of the distant countries represented.

Of the United States delegation, New York State led with 313, Pennsylvania followed with 175, Illinois 133, District of Columbia 106, and in decreasing numbers down through the entire list of states.

The program listed 256 papers to be delivered at the 27 section meetings.
