PAGE EIGHT NEW MEMBERS OF CONGRESS “GIVE PROBLEM Unless Number of Representa- tives Increased Under Census Some States Will Lose’ COUNTRY’S GREAT GROWTH Washington, July membership of the House is i trom 435 to at least 500 to meet the in- ed population shown, by ‘the 1920 censug,.10 states will lose one or more representat: cording to Re| sentative Siegel, of New York, ch man of the census committee which will frame the new Apportionment Bill. Those states are Indiana, Jowa, will lose two co men each; and Mlinois, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Nebraska, Vermont and Virginia, which will lose one congressman each. Mr. Siegel explains that if the House membership is retained at its present figure, it will be necessary to increase the population basis in each congres- sional district beyond the 211.090 or major portion thereof now fixed. It this is done, he says, the 19 states named will lose one or more of the present districts because their popu- lations hive not increased in propor- tion to those of o-hee stiics. Sixty-Five New Seats. On, the basis of the estimated popu- lation of 106,000,000. for the whole country in 1920, an increase of approx- imately 14,000,000 in.10 years, Mr. Sie- gel gays. 65 or 66 new seats in the House must be-¢reated if the 10 states are to retain their present numerical representation. While precedent wa rants the increase, Mr. Siegel declares ouri, which there is strong opposition to it on the: part of some of thespresent represent- atives, while others favor reduction to as few-as 300 members, Mr, Siegel expects the work of fram- ee relieved in @ Witew 24 HOURS NUD 26 sule bears tho 5) name 4a~ »' rewareofcounterfeit: CANDIDATE 1 REV.

Now the House floof is crowdéd’ When all members are present: seats nearly fill the chamber; the old individual desks have been discarded and an increase in membership probably will have to be {s lved by narrowing the width of the seats. Ten years ago ‘the House’ member- ship w ncreased from 391 to 435 on the basis of a population of 91,972,260 and the only exception.to such a pro- cedure occurrgd in 1840 when 10 con- {gressmen. were knocked out by. the aportionmeént,~ the membership. being fixed at'232 after having been 242 for.

At the suggestion of the commii- tee in charge of the June campaign, O. J. Seiler of Jamestown, formerly named as chairman of the commit- tee to organize the state, on what is known as the “Stutsman county plan” .and later named as chairman of the state “Langer for Governor club,” has issued the notice, and called for a victory celebration by the anti-socialists at ‘Spifitwood Lake Saturday, July 31. The following is the call: Victory. Celebration , While the recent primary election did not fully met the wishes of the uumerous trienas of the anti-soci- alist leaders in ‘North Dakota, yet the final results were a splendid victory when their enormous vote 0% two years ago is considered. Frazier’s _ majority for Governor was cut to 5300 from a_ previous majority of 17,000. Cahi¥, the red flag exponent, was defeated by ‘Thomas Hall by 6000.
