LAWSON WILL CONTEST
ELECTION OF MRS. OWEN
Charges Woman Named to Con-
gress Failed to Comply With
Residence Laws.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla, November %
The election of Mrs. Ruth Bryan owen
to the fourth district seat in Congress
in the recent Florida election will be
contested on the ground that she has
not been a citizen Of the United States
for seven years in accordance with
constitutional eligibility rules.
A Daytona Beach law firm notified
Gov. John w. Martin of the contem-
plated action in behalf of William c.
Lawson of Orlando, defeated Repub-
lican candidate.
The firm asked the governor to hold
up Mrs. Owens certificate of election,
but he announced that he would not
comply with the request regardless of
any attempt to deprive her of the seat.
The people Of the fourth district
Ct Florida elected Mrs. Owen and l
an going to issue her certificate" the
governor said.
The attorneys cited what they said
was a transcript Of the Federal Court
CT the southern district of Florida,
which declared Mrs. Owen an American
citizen on April 81, 1925. Because of
the order by court" they contended.
it was necessary for the governor to
withhold the certificate, as neither
State nor Federal laws applied in the
case.

MLEOD ASKS AID
ON HOUSE MEASURE
Warts Reapportionment Bill
Made First Order of Bust
ness in December.

Representative Mcleod. Republican,
of Michigan, made formal request in
writing upon Speaker Longworth late
yesterday 20 aid in making the reap
portionment bill the first order of bust
ness in the House during the coming
session. Mr. Mcleod has the support
of a large bloc of members. who are
pledged to filibuster If necessary to force
action on this measure. Speaker Long
worth has already let it be known that
he is extremely DESTROYS Of having the
reapportionment bill passed at this ses-
sion and believes II it is not done now,
il will be more difficult to do so at any
future date, because 1t would then re-
suit IN a still further reduction in the
number Of seats for some States.
Opposed to Bigger House.
The Speaker is unalterably opposed to
increasing the size Of the House above
the present membership of 435. Reap
portionment would entail redistricting
in many States.
Michigan is particularly interested In
the delayed eapportionment, the
governor having declared that he is
ready to take the case before the
Supreme Court on the ground that
Michigan is denied the proportionate
share in House members to which the
State is entitled under the census as
provided in the Constitution.
Mr.. Mcleod who has been leading
the effort in Congress to get reap
portionment bill passed. and who
organized the reapportionment bloc, has
asked the Speaker to recognize him for
the purpose of offering on the opening
day a plan for reapportionment drafted
b. $50 members of the House. Such
recognition would automatically give
the reapportionment legislation pre-
ferred status on the House program.
Holds Action is Duty.
In presenting his plea in writing,
Mr. Mcleod said: "Reapportionment is
o duty placed upon Congress at stated
intervals by the Constitution. Failure
to comply with that duty. as Congress
has failed for the past eight years can
only be interpreted as the beginning of
the failure of representative govern
ment.
These repeated failures on the part
of Congress. in my opinion, constitute
a warning which Congress itself must
Hetu, anu III oOHls 81 ~ "ouiu D0 Juot1~
fed in setting aside every other ques-
ton until equality of representation
upon the basis of population has been
restored to the people of the several
States.
with a view to curbing the past
weakness of Congress in this respect, |
and of righting a great wrong as early
as possible, / have made inquiry and
received replies from many members,
indicating their desire to provide for
reapportionment in accordance with
the Constitution, so far as 1t is now
possible to do so. at the very outset of
the coming session.
"A suggested plan will probably be
agreed upon by all the members to
whom l have reference before the
House conveneS. We intend to submit
this plan promptly to the House"
