Tint tic Legtsluture had no power to tux church
cc,lt dccts!un OF tbs supreme Court OF tho
United stnses III ,tho Northwestern University
chse. The remainder Of his speech, whcl, was
over half an' l,ur In length, was confined to
culogy df the Christian civilization.
Tile legal objection ln made TO the BILL Is Ger

TINT s,asie whereas church property ia exempt

Vision of tho Constitution which says 1t may be
exempted.
