side of the question: Resolved, that Congress shall have the power to over-ride a Supreme Court decision by a two-third's vote.

Final re¬ sults were: President, William Flynn '37: Vice President, John Neylon '38; Secretary, .Arthur Phelps '37; Treasurer. Everett Case '37; Censor, Norman Hayes, '36. Messrs. Marri¬ ott, Lanz and Conroy were elected members of the standing committee.
llie meeting was clima.\ed by a lively debate on the question, "Re¬ solved : That the initiative and refer¬ endum be adopted by New York State."
