started a new fight for amendments
to the organic law that will bring
to that section of the State relief
in amore equitable distribution of
the school fund and a re-apportion-
ment of representation in the Sem

In this fight the South Mississip-
plans will have powerful support
from North Mississippi legislators
who desire the submission of con-
stitutional amendments in which
they are deeply interested.

mapping out a plan Of action the
South Mississippi and the North
Mississippi members who have
amendments to the Constitution
that they wish to have submitted
