WEST AND SOUTH
GAIN POLITICALLY
Will Have Lnger Proportionate
Representation in Congress
by New Census.

Washington, Oct Determination of
the final census figures of the country,
which place the total population ni the
continental United States at lO5,6S3, lOS,
indicates that the West and the South
proportlonately will gain more IN a
politiGal way than the East or Middle
West through increased membership IN the
House of Representatives, more votes IN
the electoral. college and IN larger delega-
tons to the nat.onal political conventions.
The result will Obtain whatever basis
of apportlonment Is adopted by congress
next winter.
AS n result of the increase of l3,1lu,SlZ
in population during the last ten years,
fiftv new seats must be added 60 the House
TO prevent any state from losing any part
Of It's present representation. Should the
present membership of 435 be left un-
changed hv increasing the basis of APP
portionment there will have to he a trans
fer of thirteen seats now held by twelve
seats to nine other states.
For the last half century the precedent
has been to increase the size of the House
.4a ~ to prevent loss of existing representa-
tion by any state.
II TINS precedent is followed this year five
additional representatives seats must be
gwen TO California: four each to New ork
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan; three
10 Illinois and Texas; two to Massachusetts
New Jersey and North Carolina, and one
each TO Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut,
Georgia, Maryland ,Montana, New Mexico,
Oklahoma Oregon. South Carolina,
Tennessee, Washington, West Virginia,
Wisconsin, Virginia, Arkansas and MIN
nesota.
Congressional leaders are strongly OPP
po@cd 10 any large increase in the House
rs they regard the present membership
of 435 too unwieldy,
BY holding the House membershI
to 435 gains would be distributed with
three 20 California, two to Michigan and
Ohio, and one each to Connecticut, New
Jersey, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Texas
and Washington. To offset these gains
Missouri would be forced TO lose two
Congressman, while Indiana Iowa, Nan
sas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mis-
sissippi, Nebraska, Rhode Island, Ncr-
mont and Virginia would lose ono each.
