Speaking Of Reapportionment---

While we're speaking of reapportonment. due in 194l
for the federal congress in accordance with the consttu
ton and the 1910 census let's not forget the states.
Nearly all state governments modelled the federal
government and they too require reapportonmen of their
state legislatures 10 ofener The Council of
State Governments finds that 10 states have not done this
for from Is to so years There has been legislative
reapportionmen in Mississippi for instance since 1890 in
Delaware since 1897.
This may small matter with such terrific events
shaking the world but is proof of the vitality of
democracy to keep to date the machinery by which
functions Those who talk of making democracy work at
home may feel that this is good time to check the
machinery.
