Subjects at World Meeting Must Deal With Constitution, However. American participants in the fourth national and second internation ora torical contest next year will be give: | greater latitude than heretofore i {the selection and treatment of sub- | jects. While speeches must be of such character as to increase interest i1 jand respect’ for the Constitution o the United States, the list of subjects {is offered as suggestive and not as compulsory. | Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of showing the pres- ent-day applicability of c i the following on the question of the orations: 3 “The orations must be the original work of the students; their delivery must not consume more than 10 min- utes; treatment of the subjects must combine historical background with application to conditions of today. “The contest is based upon the Con- stitution of the United States, and all subje ts selected m st deal with the Constitution, but wide latitude is given in the .hoice of subject so long as i conforms with the general require- ment. By way of suggestion, the fol- lowing subjects are proposed: ‘The i Meaning of the Constitution Today,’ America’'s Contribution to Consti tutional ~ Government; ‘Washing- ton’s Contribution to the Consti- tution, ‘Hamilton's Contribution to the Constitution,’ ‘Franklin's Contri- bution to the Constitution, ‘Jefferson’s Contribution to the Constitution,’ ‘Marshall's Contribution to the Con- stitution,” ‘Madison’s Contribution to the Constitution, ‘Webster's Contri- bution to the Constitution.’ ‘Lincoln’s Contribution to the Constitution.’ “In orations that deal biograph- ically with the men included in the list above, it is expected that the speakers will show how the influence of the men discussed survives today. In orations that deal with the gen- eral subject of the Constitution, it is expected that the speaker will dls- cuss the significance of the constitu- tional provision covering the subject ~hosen—the citizen’s duty to vote, for example—and show its application to- day. it is again emphasized that the contest revolves about the Constitu- tion and that it is designed to in- crease respect for and interest in American institutions.” = —_— HOFFMAN CASE DUE TO REACH JURY SOON Arguments in Trial of Chicago Sheriff and Others May End Tonight.

Contrast that with less monthly outlay—paid on the purchase of a co-operative apartment in Hilltop Manor—and at the end of the year you have a substantial equity in a sound investment to show for your money. That of itself is a persuading point. ; . But add to that the comfort and enjoyment of residence in the most luxuriously appointed apartment in America—with the privacy that surrounds a home and the service conveniences that attend the highest-class hotel. £ These two points are convincing arguments for the purchase of an “Apartment Home” in Hilltop Manor—and certainly justify your careful investi- gation.
