educational value in putting desirable things in a docu-

ment, so that people can point to it and say, these are
|
|
3
|
our goals; a kind of section in the Constitution that
|
|
4
|
could be headed, things that would be nice, and you might
|
|
5
|
find that if there is — if that really represents the

Now, you've got a very delicate problem of

|
in the community, or, c, some outline with the general
|
|
19
|
consensus, that you may jeopardize the Constitution and
|
|

|
hurt yourself.
