The expectations are that
the re-apportionment measure
passed at the last session of the
legislature will be declared un-
constitutional by the U. S.
Supreme Court and the cleo
ton of congressional candi,
dates will be 'at large" and
not by congressional districts
Such a move would certainly
disrupt the scheme and it is
felt that the big cities would
dominate the ballot. Hopes
are being voiced for a special
session of the legislature tc
correct this in case the court
decides that the act was un
constitutional.

president is elected and the
party gets into power. Now is
the accepted time to- make the
change in the economic con-
