Both sides managed to extract
some satisfaction today out of In

which saw Herbert Hoover's Presi-
Dental aspirations receive their first
major setback of the pre-convention
season.
Incomplete returns, supplemented
by private advices reaching Wash

Senator James E. Watson carried
the State by a margin of around
20, 900 votes, and thus acquires
Indiana's SO delegates to the Kan

The Indiana contest was hailed

territory. Before the balloting, the
Hoover managers had asserted that

The, Hoover managers had been
confident Of repeating their Ohio

sorely disappointed as the slowly

Hoover's Indiana manager to con.

much.
However. they masked their dis.
appointment somewhat by pointing
to the closeness of the contest, and
stressing the magnitude OF the

URGE REZ0N|NG
ON AVENUE

The fight to prevent the erection
Of buildings on the north side Of
Pennsylvania Avenue, which would
conflict with the designs of pros
posed Federal and municipal build
ings. was carried before the Zoning
Commission at its meeting in the
District Building yesterday by Major
Cary Brown, OF the National Capital
park and Planning Commission.
Al petition to Fezone the property
known as the National Hotel. sixth
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue
Northwest. from first commercial
90.foot d area to first commercial
11O-foot d area, was presented to
the Zoning Commission.
Major Brown urged the board to
refuse requests to rezone any Of
the property on Pennsylvania Ave.
nue. between First and Fifteenth
Streets Northwest until Congress
has acted on bill to regulate archi-
lecture on the north side Of the
avenue.
The commission took the petition
under consideration.
Representative of the owners of
the hotel said that they desired the
change so they could erect 10
foot building. The maximum height
for buildings on lower Pennsylvania
Avenue now is 80 feet.
Fifteen other proposed changes in
the zoning regulations were taken
under consideration by the COM
mission.

WAR LOOMS To
RE EAPP0RT|ON !
HOUSE
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL
international News Service

Extraordinary demand among re
turning Congressman for reappor-
tionment of the House membership
as provided by the Constitution to-
day pressaged a bitter struggle i'm
mediately after Congress convenes.
So insistent is the pressure from
States now denied their full repre-
sentation ini Congress that a power
full bloc is threatening to inaugurate
filibuster until the reapportion-
ment question Isl settled.
Tentative plans Of the bloc call
for introduction of a resolution in
the House on the opening day of
the session declaring that reappor-
tionment shall remain the unfinished
business until bill is enacted.
Pledges For Passage
This in itself would start q floor
battle which might upets all plans
of House leaders to rush the con.
sideration Of appropriation bills.
Members of the bloc, it is understood,
also are considering proposal to
fi1ibuster all legislation until their
bill is acted upon, on the ground that
the House as now constituted is an
Illegal body.
Several, months Of activity has re-
suited in the exaction of sufficient
pledges to pass bill introduced
last session by Representative Fem
(R.) of Connecticut. Representative
Mcleod tR.) of Michigan, State
which probably would gain four
House members in reapportion-
ment, led mail campaign designed
to secure the backing necessary to
overcome stiff opposition to the
Fem bill.
Representative Rankin CD OF
Mississippi, who led the fight last
year which resulted in the Fem
bill being recommitted to commit.
tee, is also engaged In campaign
to halt renewal Of the battle.
See Aid For G. o. p.
Since electoral votes for President
are based upon membership in Con
gress, some Democrats see in the
Fem bill a blow at their future
prospects. Reapportionment, it is
estimated, would likely add three
to six electoral votes to normal Re.
publican strength.
Representatives Of California, Con.
necticut, Florida, Michigan, New
Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio. Okla.
homa, Texas, and Washington are
expected to line up so1idly in the
"reapportionment bloc" All of
these States would gain members
in Congress at the expense OF the
agricultural Midwest and Southern
States.
Failure of Congress to reappor-
ton the House since 1911 despite
the constitutional provision for a
new division after every 1O-year
census is the weapon with which
hackers of the Fem bill hope 10
win. At present. they claim, Con-
gress stands out as the most fla
grant violator Of the Constitution
in the Nation.
