the direction of reducing Southern
representation in future nation con-
ventions by cutting down the vote OF
10 Southern States by 23.
Although IL was vigorously asserted
that mo color line was drawn" by
the committee. the net effect of the
action taken is to minimize the in
fiuence of the Negro element In Re-
publican politics of the South, first.
BY requiring those who participate 10
be legal and qualified voters" and
next by limiting their voting power
in national conventions.
Under the plan adopted. the IS
States which President Harding car
ned I'm 1920 will have their vote in
creased by rs. With the vote of the
10 Southern States reduced by 2s.
there viii be a net increase in the
membership of the next national con-
vention OF SO votes. making a total
membership in that body of 1887
delegates.
This reorganization was accom-
piished by the following process:
-Four delegates-at-large from
each State.
Two additional deIegates-at-
large in Congress from any State.
Two delegates-at-large each
