shows that there has been a reduc-
ton in the membership Of the two
houses. The senate has been re-
duced from forty-one to thirty-six; the
house from one hundred and nineteen
to eighty-six-quite healthy cut il

clipped off and added with Avoyelles
and made a new district. The old
fourteenth, constituted by st. Landry,
Acadia and Evangeline, had two SEN

only one.
st. Landry's representation in the
lower house has been reduced from
three to two. Other parishes having
two under the old apportionment hare

Orleans has been cut harder than any
other parish in the state, as 1t will

The reduction of membership OF the
two houses does not necessarily mean
that there will also be reduction in

PHYSICAL TRAINING
PROPOSED FOR CHILDREN

Washington, D. c. April 1S-Among
the first bills introduced at the open
ingg session OF the new congress was
one proposing federal cooperation
with the states in the extension OF
physical education to reach all child
rem between the ages Of six and eight
cen. The bill was introduced by Sen
ator Arthur CaDpec Of Kansas and
Representative S. .. Fess of Ohio.
The new bill differs from the Fess-
Capper bill of the last congress, IN
that phycical examination or medical
treatment is not required where par
ents object, and cause has also been
inserted guarding against discrimina-
ton for or against any school or prac-
titioners.
Congressmen Capper and Fess point
out that with these amendments they
have adequately met the opposition
to the former bill. The purpose OF
the bill is not to prescribe particular
means and methods through which
the various states shall extend ply
sical education to all children, but
rather to provide federal stimulus and
cooperation to enable the states to
extend and carry on more effectively
their own locally determined program
of phycical education, the congress
men say.
The bill authorizes an appropria-
tion OF $10.0O0,00O to be distributed to
the states for the payment of onslhalf
the cost of training, and employing
teachers of physical education, includ
ing health supervisors and school
nurses. During the first year or two.
physical educators say it is probable
only a part Of this sum will be used
by the states.
The amount available will be de-
termined by the number of persons
in each state between the ages of six
and eighteen, but each state will re-
tceive sum equal to the amount it is
already spending for the training and
employment Of teachers of physical
education.
Physical educators now in Wash
ington urging immediate passage of
the bill say that the proposed legis-
lation would save the country many
millions in excess Of the cost They
say is cost the government nearly
S194, 100000 annually to make prpYi.
sion for the 100000 children daily
absent from the public schools, large
ly on account of sickness. Sixty per
cent of the children are retarded in
their schoolwork about nine per cent
by physical deficiency thus adding
$32, 100000 year to the annual bill
for education. Five million young
people under the age of nineteen in
industry lose time and pay doctors
bills each year amounting to $72,-
0OO, 900. The preliminary physical
training of 10000 raw recruits for
the army each year would cost $13,-
eO0,0OO.
The republican platform endorses
universal physical education and
educators throughout the country are
already beginning to urge upon the
new congress the necessity Of follow
ing the leadership of France, England
Japan and other large countries that
have already made physical training
a compulsory part of the school
course.
