AL SMITH AS A FARM STATE
 GOVERNOR.

Those who declare that Gov. Al Smith, be- of his New York City rearing, has lacked experience that would qualify him to make a satisfactory President to the agricultural inter- ests, apparently overlook the fact that he is the Governor of of the greatest of our farming States The farm population of New York of ten years more n age numbers about ITO 900 larger than the total population of many of the agricultural States The crop and animal products of New York farms marketed in l926 amounted 10 s665.000.000. This figure Was ex- products of only eight States They were in the order named Texas. $1,031 000, 900; Iowa. $1,- 022,000,000; Illinois $922.000.000; Missouri, $749,o0o,000; Kansas. $706,000, 900; Wisconsin, $7o5,0o0,000; Ohio $7020 ,000 and California, $672,o00,000. Only six States exceeded New York in the value of crops: Texas. Iowa, California Illinois, Kansas. North Carolina and Minnesota being beaten by Iowa, Illinois, Missouri Wiscon- sin and Ohio In the value of milk cows, New York ranks second only 10 Wisconsin
 No other Governor of State has served in that capacity as long as Al Smith has been Governor of She great agricultural State of New York, and he is satisfactory to and immensely popular with Empire State farmers No State it is generally conceded, has gone further to aid agriculture than New York; and Gov Smith has been leader in the work. His interest in the welfare of agriculture began when he was member of the Legislature and continued throughout his long career in the Assembly

The popular demand for reapportionment of Representatives in Congress seems to have im- pressed itself Congress. The last apportion- ment made following the of 1910. Thefe should have been another after the cen sns of Ia20 as required by law. In the mean time ha sblff If ponalation has been such that, 8st th representation in Congress based on the eensla a5 t910 many States now are dispropor- tIoaafelq represented.
 To mention Ohio alone the growth of popu- 1ation entities her to more Representatives than she has. Other States have not maintained such growth and consequently have had and now are having voice in the National House out of proportion 10 their population.
 Speaker Longworth, who has been by some severely criticized for not being more rigorous in pushing reapportonment measure, now has given his approval to the bill sponsored by Chair man Fenn, of the House Census Committee, and is urging action. This bill proposes to keep the present membership of the House. 435, and to base tho new apportionment estimate of the population in 1930. There is objection to this because it is estimated instead of an actual count Of population. But perhaps that is better than 10 make it on the 1920 at this late day to wait until the 1930 census.
 Whatever is done there will be objection and contest Under the Fenn bill IT States would lose representation in Congress- 13 States would gain. Already the opposition from losing States is developing. They do not object to change much because other States will gain be- cause they will lose. The only way to prevent their loss would be to increase the number of the House membership This would make that body cumbersomely large and it is large enough and unweldly enough
 Speaker Longworth seems to express the dom inant sentiment in Congress in his statement, which says:
 Of course it is hard for some States
 to lose Representatives and hard too for
 members to give up their seats, but it
 seems to that Congress is subject
 to legitimate criticism for having failed
 to act for some years, and that we
 ought to no longer deny to the com

 representation guaranteed to them by

 Unpleasant things have to be done some times, in behalf of justice, and it is high time that the injustice that many States have suf- fered for too long should be corrected.
