The committee provides that its

by State Republican conventions in
such number of States as are entitled
to cast a majority of the votes in the
present electoral college"
Under the old system of represen-
tation the Southern and Territorial
representation was approximately 30
per cent of the convention, YET they
gave a very small percentage of the
electoral vote. This gave the party
bosses and the Republican admins
tration, If the party were in power,
an apparent advantage over any con-
testant, as was emphasized by the
routing of the Roosevelt delegations
