R. B. Howell, tional committeeman Hon. Republican na-: from Nebraska, has seen enough of it and announces that he is ready to lead the fight either in the convention or in the committee or both to-amend the party rules re- ducing the represéntation in national conventions from southern states from one hundred and sixty te eighty dele- gates. The present rule of the party apportioning delegates to these states is four deleg=tes at large, one for each congresr.onal district and an additional delega.e in districts casting 7,560 Re- pr>ean votes or more, As has been said time out of memory, these southern democratic states fur- nish no electoral votes whatever. With the exception of one or two congres- sional districts they furnish no Repub- lican votes for members of congress, for the reason that statutes of the States passed by democratic legisla- tures disfranchise by one means or an- other the negro Republican vete. It outrage, of course, and should be taken in hand by the federal gov- ernment, which power should see to it that the negro is secured in his. full rights of citizenship guaranteed by the constitution. is an But until that is done, Republican represciitation in the national conwen- tion from these southern states der existing conditions is a farce. It is altogether a source of scandal and It brings to the con- vention groups of factional contesting delegates. It mars the harmony of the convention. Gives rise to charges of Monopolize’s valuable time and causes a hub-bub that is un- seemly and not worth while.

There was no assistance on the part of the administtatiom in this matter. For as @ startet these departments brought im estimates in excess of five billion dollars for the fiscal year. All! legitimate and proper expenditures on behalf of the government were passed! by congress, including support of army, navy, postal employes and other ex- penses of government, and yet was able to exclude a billion and & half of pro- Posed expenditure, that. the exécutive departnients demanded and which con- : believed unnecessary in view of the fitmncial conditiom of the gevern- and setting up an adequate contre! of ment and the already heavy tax bur- den borne by the people.

The passage of the budget act was an achievement of great importance. The President him- self Fealizes its importance.
