CORONA DAILY TIMES WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER B, 192o

Republicans argue that as practi- cally all negroes are disfranchised by various devices in the south a large per centage of the pop ulation of the sixteen southern states is not allowed to have rep resentation in congress, and that scores of representatives from the south are not entitled to seats in the house on this ground.
 The fourteenth amendment to the constitution provides that when the right to vote is denied to any of the inhabitants of a state or in any way abridged" the basis of repre- centation therein shall be reduced in the same proportion which the number of disfranchised citizens shall bear to the whole number of citizens of such state. This un- doubtedly gives a Republican con- gress authority to reduce represen- tation in the house from southern states which have disfranchised the negro The southern states now have 10S house members. This number would be reduced mater alIy if congress sees fit to enforce the fourteenth amendment.
 For many years Republicans in congress have threatened to reduce southern representation in the house. Disfranchisement of the negro wom- en in the south, despite the nine- teenth amendment, may bring the matter to a head in the next con gross.

TOO UNWiELDY A BODY

As a result of the census just taken congress will soon have to take up the problem of increasing the population basis of representa- tion in the house of representatives, or of increasing the number of rep resentatives in the house Under the present apportionment each house member theoretically repre- sents a population of 1877. There are 435 house members. As it works out in practice each house member now actually represents ci0,- 504 population.
 The new census gives continental United States population of ap proximately 05,000,000 If the pres ent ratio of representation is main tained the house membership would be increased to about 500 members It is the problem of congress to allow this increase, which would
 
 or to increase the ratio of popula tion so that the number of repre- sentatives will remain the same 435. Or congress can so increase the ratio that the present number -435-can be reduced.
 After the 1910 census the member oh of hn ,nI from 393 to 435. It is believed from interviews with congressional leaders, that the next session will enlarge the house membership to about five hundred.
 In all probability this will be done despite the arguments of some of the leaders (but they are in the minority that the house membership is now too large and unwieldly to effectively, and particularly expedi- tiously, transact congressional busi- ness. Opponents of a reduction in membership point to the membership of the English house of commons, which numbers more than 700 and is model for the transaction of public business.
 The principal influence, however, which will prevent any reduction in the house membership, and which will work for increased representa- tion is the jealosuy of every one of n1 of 1l, !, ot reduction in the number of their house representatives would reduce their influence, as states, in the na tional legislature. In so-called doubtful states" where Republicans and Democrats are almost on a vot ing equality, both parties will resist any reduction of representatives, both fearing that encouragement of con gressional districts would disturb their possible political control.
 There is only one chance that congress may reduce the number of representatives,. If the Republi cans regain control of congress which now seems certain, with al increased majority in the house anC senate, they may decide to reduce the number of house representative from the southern states. This would be done on the ground that millions of the colored population of the southern states is disfranchised. Int

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

Il you want to keep your hair in good

Most soaps and prepared stampoos
contain too much aIkaii. This dries the
scalp, makes the liair brittle, and is very
harmful. Mulsiied cocoanut oil sham

you can use for shampooing, as this

Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
Flll make an abundance of rich, creamy
.ather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The iather rinses out easily,
snd removes every particle of dust, dirt,
