dozen sophisticated New Workers on

Just because Reggie Van Zandt

staunch New England youth who

in the course of that Seventh day.

Agitation for the hospital, started

servers and constitutional lawyers of
no mean ability here declare NJ
p~hatically that the diversion of the
surplus for the proposed purpose is
forbidden in the ~clearest of terms
by the New Jersey constitution. They
contend that the money can be used
for no other purpose than the pay
ment of soldiers bonuses and the
paying of interest or sinking fund
charges on the bonds.
The constitution, referring to all
bonding laws, other than for war or
suppression of instruction purposes,
for more than 500, 900, declares that
"all money to be raised by the All
thority of such law shall be applied
only to the specific object stated
therein, and to the payment of the
debt thereby created"
With that clear provision in he
constitution, it is asked, how can
Commander Sears and the American
Legion get the legislature to appro-
pirate the surplus of soldiers bon
money for a hospital?
The legion headquarters at Lake
