A PROCLAMATION

W H ER EAS on September 17, 1787, after four months of debate, highlighted by sharp differences of view and by wise compromises, the outstanding leaders of our Republic, who were meeting in con vention at Philadelphia, signed the Con stitution of the United States of Amer ica; and W H ER EAS the story of the framing, signing, and adoption of that epochal document constitutes one of the most significant chapters in the history of our country; and W H ER EAS it is fitting that every American should reflect upon the vision and fortitude of our forebears in creating a charter designed to form a more per fect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty for themselves and for the fortunate millions who were to follow them as citizens of this Nation; and W H EREAS the Congress, by a joint resolution approved August 2, 1956, has requested the President to set aside the week beginning September 17 of each year as Constitution Week, a time for the contemplation and commemoration of the historic acts which resulted in the formation of our Constitution:
NO W , THEREFORE, I, D W IG H T D.
EISENHOW ER, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the period beginning September 17 and ending September 23, 1956, as Constitu tion Week; and I urge the people of the United States to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities in their schools and churches, and in other suitable places. I also urge them at that time to give solemn and grateful thought to that eventful week in September 1787
when our Constitution was signed, de livered to the Continental Congress, and made known to the people of the country, thus laying the foundation for the birth of a new Nation.
IN W IT N E S S WHEREOF, I have here,unto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States of America to be affixed.
