Excerpt from Chicago and the Constitution: Report to the Civic FederationThe report deals with the question of amendment or convention.It schedules some changes in the constitution suggested heretofore by various bodies, and outlines some new ones for the purpose of finding the widest possible scope of present demands for constitutional changes. It then con eludes that these (all of which it does not commit itself to recommend), and even many more, are not enough to impel the calling of a convention, a step which it condemns as unnatural to a going state. The toler ance toward such bodies, prevalent in most of the Amer ican states, it attributes to a habit acquired in their formative periods.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
