the Republican national committee at
the conclusion of a session marked
by sharp debate. The new plan re.

The committee also whipped into
shape and adopted a resolution recog.
nizing the primary system of nonina.

power it formerly exercised to pass
on the credentials of delegates.
The changes thus made in the party
organization will be recognized as
party law if ratified by twothirds of
the states that make up the majority
vote in the electoral college.
New York is one of the northern
states that had to submit to a reduc.
tion in representation under the unit
of apportionment adopted. 1t loses
four delegates under the new plan.
Illinois will lose two delegates and
New Jersey and Kentucky each lose
one.
