Texas Gains Three Congressman

Texas gains three seats in congress as a result Of
the new apportionment based upon the census figures
OF 1880. Texas has IS. Washington advises that the
representation OF 80 states in the house Of represen-
tatives will be affected by the reapportionment fig
ures announced by President Hoover unless congress
changes the existing law by March 4. Twenty-one
states will lose 81 seats. Eleven gain. including Cali
fornia, with nine: Michigan. four; Texas, three, and
New York and New Jersey and Ohio with two each.
Connecticut, Florida. North Carolina, Oklahoma and
Washington gain one each. 1t is said the new appcr-
tionrnent will result in wide changes in political
strength. the electoral college and state delegations
to national political conventions.
Cities, where the anti-prohibitionists are strong,
viii have greater power and some Of the agricul-
tural states in which prohibitionists find much Of
their strength will lose. These new figures were de-
termined by the secretary Of commerce on the basis
of the 1880 census, with the population placed at
1926 ASS. These are the losing state: Missouri,
8; Georgia, 2; Iowa, 2; Kentucky, 2; Pennsylvania, 2;
Alabama, /; Indiana, /; Kansas, /; Maine, /; Mas
sachusetts, l; Minnesota, l; Mississippi, !: Nebraska,
1; North Dakota. 1: Rhode Island. /: South Carolina.
/; South Dakota, 1; Tennessee. /; Vermont, /; Viz
ginia, /; Wisconsin, /.
A reminder that the reapportionment will be the
first since the house seats were rearranged In 1918 on
the basis Of the 1910 census.
AS for the Texas gain OF three, it is safe to pre-
dict that the three will be elected at large. There
are 81 members Of the Texas senate. There is a po-
tential candidate for congress In each district and In
many Of the districts two to four potential candidates.
There are Texas cities each entitled TO a congress-
man. There is West Texas-ell that Texas west OF
Fort W~orth-where the people are demanding all
three Of the new representatives on account Of the
vast increase OF population. There IS a Lower Rio
Grande Valley and an Upper Rio Grande Valley.

Col. Capone Feeds The Poor

Chicago has one Of the largest free soup kitchens
in America. 1t is said that Col. Al Capone with some
help from friends is financing the kitchen and feeding
about 100 men daily. This kitchen Is not identified
with any OF the various relief agencies. Three meals
a day are served, varying from coffee and rolls for
breakfast to soup. stew and coffee for dinner. No at
tempt is made TO sort out the habitual buns from
those who can't find work. No questions are asked.
The food Is merely handed out as long as it lasts or
as long as the line lasts.
Col. Capone's critics are fond OF saying that he has
a gizzard but is without a heart. If he is feeding
100 hungry men daily he must be the possessor Of a
remarkable gizzard.
