ACKNOWLEDGEMENT A PROBLEM.

In making the next apportionment Of
rs membership, congress has a good big
Job cut out for II. The task will be
more difficult this year than usual. For
several decades, II has been the custom
20 adopt a basis OF representation which
would permit the slower growing states
70 retain their previous number OF rep-
rAsentatives, increase the membership
from the more rapidly growing states
ano let II go at that. But, for two or
tire reasons. such a course 10 not DO
adaptable this year, .or
The plan OF procedure outlined above
has invariably resulted in n consider
able Increase Of membership in the
lower house OF congress. Now. how
over. the membership is already 80 large
a. TO be unwieldy. A further increase
would make the orderly transaction OF
business correspondingly more difiicult.
And, under the old plan. the increase
would be considerable. At least one
state has lost population. II the basis
OF representation is made larger TO keep
pace with the average increase Of pop
ulation. as is generally done. that state
and probably others might. lost 1pern-
befs Of the house.
California shows a gain In population
OF A per cent. In the last ten years.
Some other states may have done as
well. Hence II the basis OF representa-
ticn shall be kept down to prevent the
loss Of a member in Vermont. and per-
haps other states. a comparatively large
number Of new members viii have to be
allotted to the states which show big
gains. This would run the total MEM
bership of the house up toward 800, |
which could hardly be accommodated in |
the capitol building. 1t is, therefore, |
enfy to sec. that the next apportion- |
ment will require yeoIne thought. 4 I
IL has been suggested with consid.
cradle force that the membership Of
she house ought TO be reduced to 800 |
and kept around that figure. This would
reduce the quotas Of all the states
scme more than others--but each would
still have its proper proportion OF poli-
Ical power. In the days before the Civil
war, II was not unusual that the rep
resentation OF state was reduced, but
nothing of the kind has happened since.
Every succeeding apportionment has
shown an increase IN the, house. and
consequently I'M the electoral coflsge. ~ r
The reapportionment of thebmsmber-4l
ihir OF the house may be taken up and
disposed Of At tho approaching session

ended to as early as possible In order
hat state legislatures may rearrange
