NEW APPORTI0NMENT
BASED ON FEDERAL CENSUS

The new apportionment bill. based
on the census of the present year, will
possibly increase the national House
Of Representatives by 80 seats. and
one new congressman will be allowed
to Tennessee.
Congress can, if It chooses, en-
large the House Of Representatives
and thus prevent any increase in the
number of its members The present
number is 435. and is large enough.
An increase Of so would make nearly
500 members, which would be an UNI
wieldy and unnecessarily large body.
BY slight increase in the basis of
apportionment any enlargement can
be avoided.
There must in any event be a new
adjustment For example, Oklahoma
has made a large gain in population
and Mississippi has lost The prece-
dent in the past has been to put the
apportionment on such a basis that
no state would lose in its representa-
ton and if that precedent is followed
Tennessee will get new member
That is something to interest the
Tennessee politicians. How the
Eleventh district may be formed is a
problem the state legislature will
have to solve. 1t may be taken for
granted that the new district will be
made out Of territory safely Demo
cratic.
Shelby county would not lack much
of having sufficient population to
constitute a district in itself. The new
representative would likely any way
10 to West Tennessee. and if the
shirt of ierrvmander should prevail,
counties might be 50 shifted as to-
rnake the Eighth district, that has the
only considerable Republican vote in
that district, securely Democratic

sons homeless and entailed S50,000, 600 property damage. The housing situation is a critical one. The To- cal authorities have put up several temporary structures, containing four to eight rooms, each room housing a whole family of eight or ten. Sleeping eating and washing are done in the same room.
 The Jeish community also has er- ected a small number of houses, but they are wholly inadequate to take care of the large number of persons without homes and the constant stream of refugees from Macedonia
 Hundreds of families have found refuge in the cellars sub-cellars of the destroyed buildings. The cellars are dark, damp, cheerless and light less. The inha bitants live like SC many rats. When it rains, water often stands several inches deep on the floor. The extreme congestion has seriously affected the moral standards of the people, many of whom, before the fire, were persons of considerable income and of good standards of family life.

GERMANS DISCOVER NEW WAY TO FIGHT
 AGAINST STRIKERS
Organization is Called "Red Cross" of Indus-
 try

Stuttgart, Oct. 23.-German indus trial leaders believe they have found an effective weapon for fighting Nothilfe, known in Germany and Denmark as the Red Cross of indus try As evidence they point to the fact that the organization crushed a general strike in the state of Wuert- temberg in five days when that state was menaced with a complete paraly- sis of all industrial activity.
 The Technishe Nothilfe was or ganized at Stuttgart about a year ago and is operating under the di- rection of tie Minister of the Inter- for. In normal times only a skele- ton office is maintained which occu- pies itself with preparations for an emergency. uerttemberg is divid- ed into 100 sub-districts, each of which has a leader whose duty is. to prepare a list of volunteers able in emergency to operate all the essen
 tial industries of the community The head office in the city the fur nished with complete list of such volunteers. The active technical em- i ergency managers of essential in dustries usually are named as chiefs for those industries and they presu-
 mably are non-union men, Among i the volunteers listed are university
 the polytechnic Institute and un- skilled workmen form every class ot society.
 Central Organization
 The central organization makes provisions for bedding, foodstuffs ana army kitchens for the volunteers who camp by their jobs.
 Each volunteer is informed in ad vance where to report and upon the notification of strike proceeds te that post where the Technische Not. hilfe has delivered supplies consid- cred sufficient for the duration ot the strike. It is claimed that in a very short time the central office thus can furnish an operating force for each industry.
 The general strike here was call ed as protest against the ten pel cent tax on workmen's wages. Il
 but adhered to by the majority so- clalists, the more conservative le- Dor elements and trade unions. Dis tribution of food ceased and gas, el. ectrlce and water service was aband oned. The community was confronted with possible chaos when the Tech. nische Nothilfe stepped in, assumed control and manned every essentia
 post, vacated by the strikers, inclu- ding the highly technical positions There was some difficulty in find ing men fitted to aid in the heavy
 work such as firing furnaces, fol few of the volunteers had been ac,

ALBANIA Is FREE
 FIRST TIME FROM
 ENEMY INVASION
Natives Consider Country Has
 Reached Goal of Inde- pendence

Scutari, Albina, Oct. 23-With t.e withdrawal of Italian troops from Avolna and the cessation of hostile invasions by the Serbs and Monten- egrins, Albinia is free of foreign oc- cupation for the first time in her turbulent history. Albinians feel that they have at least reached the goal of their national independence. Their undying love of liberty which has persisted through all their cen turies of struggle against Turk and Christian, is particularly quick and hopeful today. The people hope that the great powers will protect them from future designs on the part of selfish foreign countries
 Perhaps never before was there such state of tranquility within the borders of the little Albinian state. In the streets of Scutari one sees the Albanian colors displayed for the first time, and listens to patriotic demonstrations by local

TOM BLODCETT VICTIM
 $500 HOLD UP

have often wondered what I would do if I were held up, and aft CT my experience last Wednesday on a lonely woods road I know just what I would do.
 To think that I was the easy mark of two young Pine Bluff guys and that they got by with it, rather ap- peals to my sporting blood and I am going to turn them in to the Grand Jury as I first intended to do.
 I was returning from my office Nh Rison, where I had closed deal for 400 acres of land, and jogging along in our little Ford sedan, at peace with the world and myself. when to my great surprise I was halted, as turned . bend. by two hold-up men.
 The odds were against me and l stopped and was politely cleaned for $500 by two men named Savage and Mooney who claimed they were cot ton buyers and were on hunting trip to keep away from where there was any cotton for sale.
 Now I suppose they were hunting for I heard Savage say they were shooting" something. and they must have been using expensive ammuni- tion, for Mooney said it cost him 8 the last 10 minutes.
 They had blockaded the narrow road with their car and there was no way to get by and they were so polite that I did not think I was go- ing to be held up in regular Diam ond Dick" style until I was relieved

Paris, Oct. 1.-The Harvard recon struction unit which came to France in July has completed it's work in the devastated regions and many of it's members have returned to Am erica. Considerable work was ac- complished by the organization which consisted of 25 persons. The Amer ican architects planned an entirely new town to take the place of Bour- eullles and 0 new site has. been se
 leeted. This plan was drawn up by Hale Walked of Carthagena, Ohio, George Lee of Boston and Prentiss

customed to such labor, but this was solved by working very short shifts. The majority of the 265 men working and living in gas works were Poly technic students.
 Normal Production
 There were even union labor men among the volunteers, for some of the labor leaders believe that cer- tain industries must be kept going to prevent the collapse of a com munity and that oaly the Technische Nathilfe can do this Some of the conservative labor leaders felt that the control of their organizations might slip out of thir hands into those of the extreme redical elements who would tie up all the industries of it wer not for the Tescnische Nothilfe. For these reasons they have made no opposition to union men volunteering for service with that organization.
 The strike began at midnight Sat urady, the volunteers were ordered on duty Sunday morning and by Mon- day morning the industries wer fu- nctioning on the reduced capacities bpt by Wednesday morning normal production had been attained.
 Motor trucks were requistioned for the distribution of food to the volunteer workers and an appeal was issued to labor, philanthropic and social organizations to aid ir protecting the workers and proper, ty. The members of the Teehnische Nothilfe are under obligation to car " no arms.
 In less than five days the strikers began to return to work and as each one took his place, meber ot i the Volunteers quit unostenta tious ly and in less than a week the strik- CTS were again at their posts.
 Chiefs of the Technische Nothilft in charge of industrial plants al Stuttgart were carefully instructed to obtain written statements as te the conditions of the plants when thC strikehs returned, so that the radi calls could not subsequently, practice i sabotage and charge that it was tht work of the Technische Nothilfe.

with a single room. Rents have in creased greatly and are quite on a par with those prevailing in Ameri- can cities. Tenants have no such legal protection against landlords as those enjoyed by New York resi- dents. So great is the need for space that the municipality has tur- ned over a number of Turkish mos ques in which to shelter the people. In one of these ancient shrines 500 people live as in one great family. They sleep on the stone floor and live a primitive con- uunity life.
 Saloniki is strikingly like the de- vasated areas of Northern France. Everywhere are ruined homes tangled wreckage, and piles of dirt and de- bris. The government has done lit tie toward restoring the city since the great fire which left 75.000 per

Coincidence for Man Looking for House

 cans who think they are suffering severely form bad housing and liv- ing conditioas and high rents should
 get glimpse of this congested and
 benighted Oriental city with it's nar- row. dark streets, cobbled pavements and tumbledown buildings, cellar like homes and other concomntants of poverty. There are only enough houses to shelter one half of the population of 175,0o0. Therest of the people live in tents, in huts. in the fields,or among the charred ruins of their former homes which were desolated by great fire that level ed the city to ashes in August 1917.

of my possessions.
 Mrs. Tom and I were just back from a three months stay at Rocky Mount, La, where bunch of us are drilling a well that looks like it is going to be d gusher, and we are going to be on the job handling real estate here in Pine Bluff at the old stand on the fifth floor of the Citi- zen's Bank building, same old phone, 2615 day time and 705 at night, and we are going to hustle and make back the $500 loss at the hands of the Pine Bluff foot pads.
 Savage and Mooney are still at large and can be found most any time except around the eottc- mar ket. If you pin them down they will have to admit the hold-up.
 To be a little more specific about it they were out of gas and were sitting by the side of the road shooting" when I drove up and Saw age crawled under my Ford with a gallon can and began to milk the gas tank like young calf after a Jer- sey, while Mooney carried the precious contents to the tank of their car. until they had three gallons.
 You may think that $500 is d pret- ty steep price to put on three gal Ions of gas, but Mooney said it was worth more than whiskey under the circumstances and Savage said whis- key was worth $25 per quart and they took F quarts, so I figure I was held up for $500.

French of Williamstown, Mass The new town plan has received the en- thusiastic approval of the mayor.
 A number of the members of the mission who were living at Cher mont -Arganne, close to the point where America made it's most sue cessful effort in the war, completed new survey and map of that vil- lage. This work was done by Ma thaniel Knowles, of Philadelphia, Joseph Hayner of Cleveland, Rupert Giddings of New York and Thomas Wilder of Cincinnati.
 While engineers were making the survey. six members of the unit ins cluding Richard Sias, of Coronoa, Cal, and Frederick Blaine of Elyria, O., traced property maps of the dis trict which survived from the war.
 Plan Sanitation
 Two schools have been designed and measurements of the church of Saint Jacques at Rheims have been compiled. This latter work was done under the direction of Isadore Richmond, of Boston and Myrou Dassett of Minneapolis. At Somme- Py, Hale Walker cooperated with ' the town architect in making changes in the town plan itself while Merritt Farren and Leon Reach, both of Bos ton, completed drawings and plan: i for a new town school Other mem bers completed a survey for new water supply system and sanitation plans. The non-technical members of the unit were engaged for two months in construction and painting of dwellings in various parts of tn, devastated area.

groups of citiens and societies. En- thusiasm and patriotic fervor are at high pitch. Even the native tribes, who usually are engaged in fractional compat among themselves, are iiv- ing in state of peace. This peace is based upon nothing more than word of honor given with the approv- al of the people between two or more chiefs.
