Re'apportionment Of House
Of Representatives.
The Several Plans Call from
800 10 440 Members.
Peary Will Submit His North Pole
Proofs to Congress.

Washington, Dec. GA House mem
bership of 440 is the smallest number
under the census bureau method of ap-
portionment that will result in not de-
creasing the present number of repre-
sentatives from any state, as annOunc-
ed in a detailed statistical statement
submitted Thursday to the House COM
mttee on the census. The statement
was arranged to show the exact effect,
under any particular proportion of
representatives to the population under
the returns of the 18th census. 1t
starts with a minimum Of $50, which
one less than the present size of the
House and ends with maximum of
440, each table showing whether on
such a calculation states representa-
ton would be diminished, increased or
unchanged.
Chairman Crumpacker of the COM
mttee will have these tables printed,
along with other data bearing on the
subject, and will call meeting of his
committee Immediately after the re-
assembling of Congress. He expects
that the committee will be able to re-
port re-appOrtionment bill at this
session Oh congress. IL Will require
numerous conferences between mem
hers and senators from various states
or groups of states, which will be af-
fccted by whatever basis of apportion-
ment is planned, for much opposition
naturally already has developed.
Minority Leader Champ Clark of
Missouri and other Democratic leaders
will be consulted, for the establishments
always bring out the threat of gerry
wandering and a merry political fight
is in prospect when the bill energies
from committee.
