ing the present total Of 435 may
reach the floor of the chamber this
week.
The way was cleared for it's con-
sideration Saturday when the house
rules committee gave right of way
to a bill by Rep. Gathings (D-Ark)
which would authorize reapportion-
ment by the method known as
equal proportions instead of the
last used method of major frac.
tons"
The reapportionment, required
every 10 years by the constitution,
would be made on the basis of the
1910 census.
Using either the major fractions or
equal proportions formula, the result
would be the same for all states but
Arkansas and Michigan. Under the
major fractions method, however, Ar
kansas would lose one seat and Mich
igan would gain it.
The rules committee decided the
fairest thing to do would be to adopt
the equal proportions formula which
