tion by Taking Eight
From Democrats.

A bill to give the Republicans an
increase of eight votes in the electoral
college with a corresponding decrease
OF eight votes to the Democrats was
introduced in the House today by Rep
resentative Mcleod. Republican, of
Michigan. He proposed to apportion
the electors in the election Of Presi-
dent and Vice President and to enforce
the provisions OF article 2. section /,
clause of the Constitution. which says
electors shall be equal to the number
OF Representatives and Senator'S to
which the several States are entitled.
Would Amend Code.
The United States code, title 3.
chapter /, section 2, says electors shall
be equal to the number Of Representa-
tives and Senators the several States
have In Congress. The Mcleod bill
would amend the United States code
to apportion presidential electors as
they would have been had Congress
reapportioned the House on the 1920
census as should have been done under
provisions Of the Constitution.
The Mcleod amendment reads as
follows. The number OF electors shall
be equal TO the number OF senator's
and representatives to which the several
states are by law entitled at the time
when the President and Vice President
to BE- chosen come into ONCE: Provided
that in any election prior 70 an appor-
tionment Of senator's and representa-
tiyes on the basis Of the enumeration
of 1920 or any subsequent enumera-
ton. the electors shall be apportioned
among the several States as follows:
Alabama, IL: Arizona, 8: Arkansas, o.;
California, is: Colorado. 8; Connecticut,
8; Delaware, 8: Florida. g. Georgia, ID;
Idaho. 4: illinois, 20: Indiana, ID;

INTERVIEW FUTILE
Banker Declines to Discuss
Talk With Scientist.
New Clue Fails.

With e. Percival Wilson. banker, who
was kidnapped on Wednesday night, de-
clining to state whether he learned any
thing new In his interview yesterday
with Leonard w. Kephart, Department
of Agriculture scientist, who was as
saulted by thugs the same night, and
the failure OF clue developed at
Soldiers Home last night. police Of the
District and Montgomery County, Mary
land. are completely at less today to
explain either OF the affairs.
Although the kidnaper used the auto
mobile and pistol belonging TO Kephart,
late yesterday afternoon was the first
opportunity that Wilson had to inter-
view the victim Of the first attack. They
compared notes. but Wilson declined to
tell police that he would be able to
Identify his assailant II he again con-
fronted him.
Police we're working last night on
information received from an operator
on the switchboard at the Soldiers
Home 10 the effect that a suspicious
telephone call was received through that
board early Thursday after Kephart
had stumbled into the hospital suffering
from the effect OF several blows received
at the hands OF his assailant. The In
veatigation revealed, however. that the
query was merely that OF some person
inquiring as to Kephart's condition.
III Prior to Attack.
The impression that he had lain un-
conscious for nearly six hours In the
alfalfa field where he was attacked was
dtspelled today by Kephart, who ex-
planned that he had been Ill prior to the
attack and that the blow In hts alb
domen and not that on his head was
responsible for his inability to arise
from the field and make his way to the
hospital sooner than he did
Il had been suffering from stomach
disorder" Kephart said, "and the blow
although not rendering me entirely un-
conscious. left me In semi-stupor from
which was unable to recover TO the
extent of walking. I could hear but
could not see. and feared for time
that ] was losing my sight entirely.
When did sufficiently recover to make
my way toward the hospital dis
covered numerous automobiles were
passing along the road by which II
would have been necessary for me 70
make my way, and l was embarrassed,
because the thugs had taken q greater
part OF my clothing. Therefore I waited
until there was less possibility OF en-
countering any motorists"
Believed Victim of Blow.
The police have been laboring under
the impression that Kephart claimed
to have been unconscious from blow
on the head up until the time he re-
covered and made his way to the hos
pital A doctor, however. had stated
to them that Kephart had not received
blow OF sufficient violence to render
him unconscious for even so short
time.
