Educational Union. Such a bill as this
Is, we are of opinion, i'm conflict with
the spirit Of the constitution and could
no doubt be successfully opposed In the
courts. We are also of the opinion that
any attempt to enforce such bill IL II

ous. 1t Is not likely, however. that the
bill will ever get past the committee
stage.
