TWO EATS IN HOUSE
DEFINITE FOR STATE
II Legislature Fails to Redistrict,
They Must Be Elected
at Large ~s@

Loss of one of North Dakota's three
congressman. indicated by 1890 census
returns, will necessitate subdividine
the state into two districts, instead
of retaining three, as at present, &C.
cording to word received from Wash
ington.
Although North Dakota's popula-
ton increased from 646.872 IN 1920
to 681 ,273 in 1880, the 34,40l gain ap-
pears to be insufficient to retain the
states three representatives IN the
lower house of congress.
Experts Of the federal census bureau
in Washington are now working on
the reapportionment Of the 435 seats
in the house al provided by a con-
gressional act.
The question Of subdividing the
state into two district will be settled
by the state legislature, according to
Congressman o. B. Burtness. OF
Grand Forks. II the legislature makes
no division. then all candidates will
run at large.
The general election next November
will not be affected by the reappor-
tionment law, which does not become
effective until 1882.

today sounded q clarion call to the
proletarian masses and communist
parties throughout the world to sup
port the Chinese revolution.

in every port Of the world" the paper
said. "there should be established

Of hands off the Chinese revolution"
Declaring that two large American
munitions plants and all the capital

plying the Chinese reactionary gen.
eral with munitions and money.

the active revolutionary work among
the soldiers Of their own countries,
and to mobilize the masses against
imperialistic intervention in China.

Experts Try to Figure Out Number
OF Congressman for Each State

lations were e in New York and
Ohio. The empire state had been
slated for the loss Of a member, but
unusual population gains probably
will entitle her to two additional seats.
The Buckeye state. on the other
hand, probably will gain but two Of
its estimated increase OF three men,
bers.
Other unforeseen losses Of one
member each were calculated to be in
store of Minnesota. Rhode Island.
South Carolina and South Dakota.
On present figures Missouri would
be the largest loser, as the census
committee had indicated, with a de-
crease Of three members, bringing her
delegation down to Is. Losses of two
members each, all previously indi-
Gated, would be sustained by Indiana,
Iowa and Kentucky.
States which the committee had
indicated would lose M member, and
whose population increases have not
been sufficient to upset these pre-
| dictions, are Alabama. Kansas. Lou

be served free to visitors here for the

there probably will be free lemonade

Washington, Aug. 6.-(P)-The de-

weather and crop report today added
more gloom to the drought situation.

country during the past few days To-

showers and these have fallen also in
some central gulf districts. Bene-
fetal rains have fallen in the Rocky
Mountains area and in some Of the
South Atlantic states.
That was the only relief and the
seventh consecutive hot week agra
waited conditions that were already
serious. The report said sections that
have been doing we'll until o are
becoming "alarmingly dry"
Confirm Reports
In general the report confirmed
stories Of disaster and near disaster
from widely scattered regions. It said
the drought was now general prac-
tically everywhere east of the Rockies
except a few fortunate localities and
parts of the southeast, and added "au
growing vegetation is seriously affect
ed"
The corr crop has suffered most of
all. Pastures would revive with
abundant moisture, but much corn
and late truck are beyond recovery.
The concentrated effort of govern
ment agencies was bent today to the
task of as%certaining accurately the
needs of the drought-stricken coun-
try.
Expect Report Monday
While requests for relief were pour
ing In, the department of agriculture
and the farm board. at the direction
of President Hoover, engaged in deter
mining both existing conditions and
the measures the government could
employ to assist the suffering agricul-
tural states. The president expects a
report to be placed before him Mon
day.
A desolation equaling the destruc-
ton of floods, tornadoes or earth
quake was described to the president
in a telegram for aid dispatched last
night by Governor Sampson of Ken
lucky. A plea for a proclamation for
nationwide prayer meetings to ask
divine aid for rain came to the chief
executive from Alexandria, just across
the Potomac from the capital. Food

ed in an appeal from the Virgin
islands.
Downpours Are Needed
Meanwhile reports of showers con-
tinued to come from many sections
but none told of steady, soaking down.
