The Schlosser-Hi practically ident laws under which institutional dor- mitories have been built in seven different states, the court was in- formed during arguments on its constitutionality. So far-as- is known, however, this is the first time that the constitutionality of such a law has been challenged. Although the court made no men- tion of the point, it was presumed by some attorneys here that the end which the Schlosser-Hamilton bill was intended to accomplish could be attained by the passage by the legislature of separate bills provid- ing for the construction of dormi tories by institutional holding com- panies at each institution.
