NO D1v1pED STATES


Movements are afoot to split two
states into two divisions. They are
Florida and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to be
divided by a north and south line ana
California by an east and west line.
Puplic sentiment in both states seems
to favor the division. In California
the motive of the proposed action is
TO secure more representation for the
state in the United States Senate. and
1t is likely that the position of Florida
is based on the same consideration.
The people OF the nation will oppose
vigorously such attempts TO incren Sc
political position. The Senate is large
enough as 1t Is. If 1t were smaller the
public good would be just as we'll served.
II there Were ono Senator from each
State and one member of the House
Tor each 100000 population. Congress
would be moro efficient.
If Florida and California are per-
united to split themselves, New York,

would also demand division. To set n
precedent would be most unwise. for
