Disapproving President Roosevelt's plan to change the Supreme Court, students of American University in a student forum yesterday voted in favor of a change in the court's pow- ers on unconstitutionality of acts of Congress. On the general question as to whether some kind of change is de- sirable, a decided majority favored & change, But when it came to specific kinds of change desired, only 18 favored President Roosevelt's plan; 39 favored a plan presented by Representative Crosser of Ohio requiring a three- fourths vote of the nine justices to void laws, while other votes were scat- tered among several other plans. About 200 participated in the forum. Two students—Kimber Shoop, fa- voring the President’s plan, and John Gendron, vigorously opposing it—led | the discussion.

We believe that our many thousands of “partners”— Bond customers of today and tomorrow — will want to know how this will affect them. Ever since 1908, when we opened our first store, one dominating principle has been behind our every move— to sell you the best clothes we could make, at a fair price. How well we have succeeded, is best evidenced by the fact that Bond is now the largest retailer of men’s clothing in the United States. Today, we have 2900 master-tailors on our payroll— and over a million men on our list of customers. Were it not for this large “family” of Bond workers and Bond customers, this statement of policy could never have been written. Woolens have already gone up in price—and continue to move higher at an unusually fast clip. There is a very definite shortage of raw wool. But Bond customers need have no concern that these conditions will affect their pocketbooks, this Spring. Our vast production permitted us to contract for Spring fabrics months before this rise started. We saved money. And this Spring, you will share in these savings! 'New Spring Selections - ~are all ready for you —at no increase in price Bench-tailored v «Pu"rkal.oah ‘Svits What’s more, the tailors in our factories are kept busy 52 weeks a year—without a layoff! And you know that contented, well-paid employees turn out more work —and better work—at a substantially lower cost. Here again, Bond customers draw down a healthy bonus! Therefore, in spite of changing conditions for Spring, there will be NO INCREASE IN BOND PRICES. There will be no decrease in Bond quality. There will be no let-down in Bond Service. You will continue to get the finest woolens our money can buy. You will continue to get Rochester-tailored quality at its best—the product of our own Rochester plant. You will continue to get two trousers with every suit. You will continue to get expert service of fitters trained in our own factories. You will continue to get the convenience of a Bond Charge Account, with its simple method of payment—weekly or twice a month. You will continue to enjoy all of these well-established advantages of buying at Bond’s—and you need not pay one cent more than you did last year, or the year before. These are the facts—our policy for this Spring! You will agree that they are important to every man who plans to buy new clothes.
