To Reapportion
Members of the Connecticut dele
cation in Congress have been urged
by Representative Mcleod of Michi-
committee Of which Congressman
Fem of Wethersfeld is chairman, to
support proposals for reapportion-
ment of representative in the House.
This request for support has been
made by letter also TO other states
which would gain representation by
reapportionment on the basis of a to-
tai House membership Of 435, as en-
bodied in the Fem bill which failed of
passage in the House in the last ses-
sion.
Conditions resulting from the fail
ure Of Congress to enact legislation
to reapportion the House membership
are tending steadily to approach a
situation (which viii disturb not only
the reasonable deliberations of Con-
gress but will cast grave doubt upon
the constitutionality Of legislation, f"
Representative Mcleod writes.
'sin my opinion" he declares, ''some
extraordinary method must be en-
ployed by volunteer body Of MEM
bers to enlist the interest, organize
the activities, and concentrate the
power Of the majority in the House
to dispose of this most important
question. before the discrepancies in
representation to be corrected assume
more alarming proportions"
State a Factor
Definite recognition of the state Of
Connecticut as factor in the coming
Republican campaign was apparent
in the announcement of the Repub-
lican National Committee that Con-
gresham John q. Tilson would man
age the New York branch Of the cam
paign speakers bureau. Congressman
Tilson was mentioned some time ago
as a possible leader of the entire east
ern organization, but Senator George
II. Moses Of New Hampshire was later
named to that post.
The spokesman Of the Republican
National Committee, in announcing
that Congressman Tilson had been
named manager Of the eastern branch
Of the speakers bureau. commended
the work which the Congressman has
performed in the past as chairman OF
the Republican congressional commit
tee with headquarters at New York
City.
Various rumors of lack of harmony
between Connecticut Republicans and
the national committee have been
floating about Washington, and there
are those here who believe that Mr..

Portsmouth. n. H., this Is the first
time that he has issued invitations TO

explained. At the conclusion Of the
services the minister invites the mem
beers OF the congregation who are "suf-
fering from mental or physical ills" TO
come 70 the altar rail and receive the
Apostolic Blessing and the laying on
of hands.
He says he has seen many miracu-
Ious cures Through divine interven-

should seek the advice Of doctor

best physical condition, but when he
has done this only Christ can cure

Washington, ID. c., July "a, 1928
A thorough survey of the political
situation in Connecticut will be made
by Democratic leaders of the state IN
cooperation with the Democratic ma
tional committee before definite
plan for campaign is formulated by
the national committee officials, II IS
stated at the national committee head
quarters here.
OF course not all political work in
the state will be suppressed until
after the survey has been completed,
national committee leaders state.
Democrats will continue to work with
in the state to win votes for the
Smith Robinson ticket, but no formal
definite schedule of speeches and de-
bates aimed to influence Connecticut
voters will be drawn up until after
the survey has been completed and
steersmen Of the party know just
what the situation in the Nutmeg
state is
The survey will be carried on by
state and national committeeman
working with the state chairman ana
the national committee. In Connects
cut the study of the political situa-
ton will be thorough and palnstaking,
for Connecticut is one Of the doubt
full states, desired by both parties,
according 70 word from Democratic
headquarters here.
The purpose of the survey Is to in
form campaign leaders as TO the sta
tus of the Smith Robinson ticket IN
Connecticut, to determine what re-
gions of the state may be depended
upon to vote for the Democratic can
didates, and to determine upon what
sections the bias. Of the forensic bat
tie for votes should be directed.
As vet Democratic leaders have de-
termined no definite date for the
inauguration of the survey OF Con-
necticut, but il win probably be COM
menced within a very few days, 1t IS
believed here.

ANCIENTS USED
CRAWL STROKE
Swimmers of Egypt, Rome
and Greece Knew Method.

BIZ Science SerUice
: WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. - The
modern" crawl stroke recently
adopted by European and American
swimmers was nothing new to the
Egyptians 5000 years ago, according
to Prof. James E. Dunlap of the
University of Michigan, writing in
Art and Archaeology.
Study of ancient mosaics and
vases has convinced Prof. Dunlap
that overland strokes were prac-
ticed by swimmers of Egypt, Rome
and Greece. The Assyrians appear
to have been less at home in the
water.
In one scene Of Assyrian soldiers
crossing a river, two of the three
soldiers stopped to blow up inflated
skins, so that they would have sup
port. Clinging to the long balloon
like skin, the soldier pushed back
and down with his free hand and
so propelled himself across.
That the Greeks used the over
hand stroke is shown by vase de-
plotting a scene in a women'S bath
ing establishment. One of the
women is swimming with her right
arm extended forward to begin the
downward and backward stroke,
and her left arm is near her side at
the end of stroke. Two of the
other Greek women in the picture
wear bathing caps, but Bathing suits
we're thought unnecessary.
Swimming instructors were known
upon the banks of the River Nile at
a very early date, Prof. Dunlap
points out. A nobleman of Egypt.
who lived before 1900 B. c., record
ed proudly that MS children and the
children of the king took their
swimming lessons together.

GAUGE HEARTS
Rate WITH Dye
Shows Five Quarts of Blood
Pumped Each Minute.

BIZ Science Serrtco
LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. Using
a specially devised instrument, Drs
w. F. Hamilton, j. w Moore, j. M
Kinsman and r. G. Squirting Of tho
University of Louisville School OF
Medicine here, have solved a 300
year puzzle of medicine and physi-
ology when they determined by ex-
periments just completed that the
heart pumps blood at the rate of So
liters, or about 5l5 quarts, per min
ute.
The amount of the hearts output
has been an unsolved problem since
Harvey discovered and announced
in 1923 how the blood circulateS
from the heart through veins and
arteries. That was just 300 years
ago.
The method used by the investi-
gators here is an improvement on
one developed over 10 years ago. A
harmless dye is injected into vein
and samples of blood are taken from
an artery every second, using a spe-
cial apparatus designed for the pur-
pose.
From the concentration Of the
dye in these samples the workers
were able to determine the hearts
output and also the length of time
it takes for the blood to flow from
the vein into and through the
heart and back out the artery. This
figure was found to be twenty-three
seconds.
This harmless method will be
used to help solve some of the prob
lens of heart disease and will be of
assistance in treating this condi-
ton, it is hoped.
