a state of turmoil and excitement

il will be regrettable that the legisla-
ture failed TO provide a fund for the

AGREE ON REAPPORTIONMENT
Southern Delegation to Next RepubIi-
can Convention VIII Be Cut.

Southern Delegation to Next Republl-
can Convention Will Be Cut.
A new basis of apportionment to
govern the selection of delegates to
Republican national conventions was
adopted by the Republican national
committee in session in Washington.
The new plan reduces southern repre-
sentation TO about 16 per cent of the
total number. Formerly it was SO
per cent.
The committee agreed upon plan
of reapportlonment providing for four
delegates at large from each state,
one from each congressional district
and one additional from each district
where the total Republican vote was
35 per cent or more of the total vote
cast. No district, however, would
have more than two delegates, states
having cons, essmen-at-large to be en-
titled to one vote for each.
Territories and the District of Co
lumbia would have two delegates each.
The plan provides also that it shall
become effective when it is ratified
by states representing majority of
the electoral college.
Under this plan representation in
national conventions is reduced by
seventy delegates.
The plan of tile subcommittee to
recognize primary laws and change
the rules governing conventions was
adopted by tie committee.
On point raised by Committee
man Chubb of Florida 1t was an
nounced that the resolution would be
changed so that in states where it is
optional whether a party shall hold
primaries for the election of delegates
they shall be selected in the old man.
ner and the primary plan shall be OBJ
served only in states where the law
provides specifically for such action.
