Charter for Children

Many a U.S. schoolroom has a framed copy of the Constitution on the wall. This week New York City's 850,000 children, returning to classes, found something else there--a copy of the San Francisco Charter. For those old enough to understand it, the Charter will also be a text for study. For those too young, School Superintendent John E. Wade hopes the framed Charter will become, like the Constitution, something to look up to.

Said he: "We know that the men who administer the Charter must have character, must believe in the universal brotherhood of man. We want our children to realize that without that [character and faith], they cannot succeed at anything they try."
