tuition requires re-apportionment in
1923. II will be wise FOR those who
disagree with the "Detroit plan" to
he ready with their alternative. 1t
is TO serve this situation that The
Herald proposes TO apply the 'fed-
erGl system" hereafter 20 Legislative
apportionment. So far as the State
House Of Representatives is concern
ed, let Representatives be apportion-
ed to straight population-with the
moot "moety' clause abandoned
Let Detroit and Wayne have the
House dominion which population"
dictates. This far we readily CON
cede that Detroit and Wayne are
within their rights. Paying the
bulk of state taxes because enjoy
ing the possession Of the bulk" OF
state resources, and Boosting the
bulk" of population, Detroit and
Wayne can absolutely justify a de-
mand for pfoportionate spokesman
ship in the State House of Repres-
enthusiastically as the pcpulous
states in the lower House of Con-
gress at Washington. But having
thus given Detroit and Wayne their
populate acknowledgment let the
State Senate be apportioncd to areas
instead Of population--cXactly as the
federal Senate is apportioned to
areas instead eff population-so as to
maintain the 'counterpoise" so es-
sentialy and SO additionally part
Of The American System Then
neither the city" nor the country"
is at the mercy of the other. On
the contrary, both deal justly with
che another. "Justice"-even in the
taxes. which Councilman Nage
wants to "shift'-should be all that
Detroit or Grand Rapids or any Of
the rest Of US seek or require.
Detroit is great, splendid com
munity. II is noble credit to
Michigan. 1t is entitled to its fair
voice in Michigan government (and,
it would be our Observation, usually
gets it, even now. 1t is MOI en-
titled to be penalized through up
state" prejudice Neither is it en-
titled to ignore the fact that "popu-
lation" is not everything in the
makeup OF the state. That mis-
taken notion was discarded as long
ago as when the American Consti-
tuticn was adopted. The whole prob
lem is Of far-reaching, fundamental
Importance. Detroit seems to know
exactly what il wants. 1t would be
well if the balance of Michigan took
enough time OFF similarly to crystal
ize its views.-Grand Rapids Herald.
