Question Discussed by Press

PROPOSED DIVIDING LINES

No Formal Campaign Has Been Or
ganized for State Division, but
Sentiment Is Growing With Object
in View, 1t Is Said.
A plan to divide Florida into tWn
states, the southern half to be called
by its present name, and the north
ern to be named JetfcrSon in honor
of Thomas Jefferson, is being serious
" and widely discussed in private
circles, and in the press of the state.
1t is suggested that the state be
divided by line running along the
twenty ninth parallel or by line CO.
inciding with the course of the SUI
vance river. % miles north of the
twenty ninth parallel. The proposed
state of JEFFERSON on the north would
contain approximately 27,000 square
miles. an area little larger than New
Jersey. New Hampshire and Vermont
combined. The rest of the state be-
low the twcnty-ninth parallel would
include some II 900 square miles,
about the same as the area of ONO
and less than the area Of Tennessee.
No formal campaign has been or
ganiZcd to create sentiment for the
proposed division of the state, but it
is believed such Il movement is likely
to be organized soon.
