The students taking History 13 will be greatly interested in the recent decision of the Supreme Court in the Virginia tax-coupon cases. The Nation says that this decision while "it is in accord with the principles of justice," yet practically "marks a revolution in constitutional construction." Dr. Taussig has made the study of constitutional questions very interesting by his clear and concise statement of the arguments and principles of constitutional construction. These cases do not really come into the work of History 13, yet as they involve rules of construction and the decision modifies previous decisions, it would seem that Dr. Taussig would confer a great favor on all the members of his large section, by giving at one of his lectures the facts of the cases and the grounds for both the decision of the court and of the opinion of the dissenting judges.
