"Constitution Day," Sept. 17, to Be Observed Now York. July, 1, That Con stitution Day, September 17, the an niversary of the Birthday of the Constitution of the United States, be made a permanent national day of patriotic celebration. Is suggested lt\ an announcement today by the National Security League. The Idea of creating a permanent popular recognition of the Constitu tion, by a national yearly patriotic celebration on September 17, is the result of the inauguration by the Na tional Security League of a great na tion-wide simultaneous demon stration on that day this year as a popular protest against the in creasing spread in this country of un-American influences. So great has been the Interest and co-opera tion aroused by this movement of the Security League and the or ganisations associated with It, that It Is now hoped to eventually make the yearly celebration of Constitu tion Day approximate the Fourth of July. While the celebration of the Declaration of Independence has continued until the world Is united upon its principles, the Constitution which has successfully embodied these principles for120 years and is the more concrete thing to dwell upon, has not been made the theme for the eulogy It deserved.
