GERRYMANDERS
WIN IN HIGH
COURT RULING
Congressional Candidates
in Three States Taken
Off Anxious Seat.

BIZ ScriDps-Hoicard Ncicspdpcr Alli0ncC
WASHINGTON, Oct 19-The
supreme court has taken congress
sional candidates in three states of
the anxious seat, but the fate OF
one candidate, now chairman OF
the most powerful committee in the
house Of representatives, still is in
doubt.
The court. in a to decision
held the Mississippi redistricting law
valid, oyerruling three-judge fed
eral court.
This will cause the seven places in
that state TO be filled in elections
by districts, rather than at large.
The decision also is expected to
rule in Kentucky, where the re-
districting act also was held invalid
by a three judge court.
In Tennessee. too, 1t is presumed
1t Will apply. although a mandamus
proceeding, revolving about a con-
test Of the validity of that states
law still is before the supreme
court.
Golfers Fate in Doubt
Although Virginia submitted a
brief in the Mississippi case, it's nine
congressional places will be filled by
elections-at-large, according to one
authority.
This authority contends that the
Virginia redistricting law was
thrown out by that states supreme
court on the grounds that it did not
conform with the Virginia Con-
stitution 1t now may be argued
that this provision of the Virginia
Constitution is invalid, however
In Mississippi as a result of the
supreme court decision, the fate of
Representative James w. Collier
chairman of the Democratic ways
and means committee, is in doubt.
After the three judge court threw
out the states redistricting law, the
governing body of the Democratic
party advised candidates for con-
gress to run in their districts.
Question Over 1911 Law
Collier held to the court decision,
and announced he would run at
large. AS a result, Representative
Russell Ellzey apparently was
nominated in Golfers district, which
had been thrown in with part of
Ellzey's old district, when the state
lost one congressional place.
Whether Collier will make a de-
niand for the nomination, or offer
himself as an independent candi-
date in his district is not known
here.
The supreme court decided the
Mississippi case on the question of
whether or not a stipulation on the
reapportionment act of 1911 was
still force.
TIL provision made it necessary
that congressional districts should
be contiguous, compact, and as
nearly equal in population as posi-
BILE.
Liberal Judges Dissent
In the last reapportionment act
this provision was not included, but
t1le old clause was not expressly re-
pealed The court majority held
that even so. the intent of congress
to eliminate it was plain. The four
liberal judges dissented.
The decision might in effect be
considered victory for gerryman-
dering, for under it, and unless con-
gress sets up the old specifications
again, congressional districts appar-
emily need not be contiguous, COM
pact or approximately equal in
population.
However, the courts decision
seems to affect only the states
named. Most of the other states al
ready have redistricted.

Philadelphia, Pa.-The Willing

community's buying power to the sup,

that is being promoted by the Phila,

On Sunday, July 18th, the club spon.
sored a tea. The success of which,
both from the standpoint of attendance
and finance has inspired the Willing
Workers to plan series of block par
ties.
It is significant that this store
which still bears the name of Buying
Club, within less than year, has
grown from a SIS week business to
one whose average is above the 5000
