LBRARYDSPLY ONEONSTTUTON Sesquicentennial Marked by Showing of Records and Documents. In celebration of the sesquicen- tennial of the adoption of the Con- stitution, the Library of Congress has placed on exhibition some of the richest treasures of its manuscript division—the documents, correspond- ence and formal records of the Con- stitutional Convention. The display fills & series of large cases on the north side of the second or gallery floor of the Library build- ing. It is arranged in sequential order, so it is possible for it to be in- spected as “a historical event in the making.” Both the New Jersey and Virginia pians for the Federal union of States gre exemplified. William Paterson’s notes for the former, including the provision that “the powers of legisla- tion be vested in Congress” are shown. Also, David Brearley's coples of the original draft containing tne resolution “Resolved, that a Federal Judiciary be established to consist of a supreme tribunal,” etc. The New Jersey proposal was sup- ported, caption cards explain, Connecticut, Delaware, New York in the person of Alexander Hamilton and Maryland in the person of Luther | Martin. Randolph’s Notes Shown. Edmund Randolph’s notes for his &peech of May 29, 1787, and Brearley's manuscript copy of the Virginia plan appear nearby. The next item ex- hibited is George Washington's draft of “the foundation upon which the | Constitution was built"—15 resolu- tions for “a national government.” The more remote background of the Federal charter is manifest in the | Journal of the Constitutional Con- gress, February 21, 1787, in which “Congress declared the convention to be expedien “‘a clear constitutional sanction”; also, in the Report of the Annapolis Convention, September 14, 1786—"the immediate forerunner of the Federal Convention.” , Of particular interest are the Bool of Yeas and Nays recording the votes of the Philadelphia meeting, includ- ing, in the handwriting of Maj. Wil- liam Jackson, the statement: “The Constitution unanimously agreed to,” by | conveying the Spanish Minister's good wishes for the prosperity and peace of the Republic, May 19, 1787; Hamil- ton's and Washington's letters of July 3 and 10; Jefferson’s and Madifon’s letters of June 20 to September 6; Madison’s letter to his father, refusing information on proceedings under an “order of secrecy,” July 28; Gouvern- neur Morris® draft of the convention's letter to Congress; the Randolph-Rut- ledge draft of the report of the Com- mittee of Deiail, July 26 to August 6; Style, September 12; Secretary Jack- son's report to Washington on the i burning of “all the lose scraps of j paper” at the close of the convention, and copies of credentials of the dele- gates. i/ In the final case is the civil list ac- count of the Expenses of Government showing the cost of the Constitution Convention to the Confederation. The total sum, incredible as it may seem, was only $1,165.90! M. D. DEGREE RECEIVED Everett J. Gordon of Washington Youngest in Class. Everett J. Gordon of Washington has received an M.

Their comrades took off in airplanes at 3:30 a.m. yesterday from the camp near the North Pole. Three of the four planes reached the Soviet expedition’s base at Rudolf Island, 560 miles away, on schedule, 5% hours later. The fourth was down near the eighty-fifth parallel, about 350 miles from the Pole. The stranded plane had given part of its gasoline supply to the other three, so they might finish the flight. After reaching Rudolf Island, Dr. Otto J. Schmidt, the director of the expedition, wirelessed Moscow that A. L Alexieff, pilot of the fourth plane, “already has prepared a field for a takeoff to be made as soon as we can send him fuel.” Schmidt radioed they left the Pole with mingled feelings of joy and regret, “for the Pole has been hos- pitable to trhe Soviet expedition.” future delivery $'| .85 Woodgrain and better-grade pads at greatly reduced prices.
