Politically, Repul:lxcan? areas will gain fifteen members and the Democrath:‘ eleven. These figures give the New York gain of two | and the New Jersey gain of two to the Demo-| crats because they are due to population increase | in the metropolitan district, which is Democratic. | California, with an increase of nine members, | leads all the States in gains. The largest part of this California gain will go to Los Angeles County | and other Southern California sections, though the San Francisco Bay region will probably get at least one more Congressman. California’s population in- crease since the last apportionment, based on the census of 1910, was 3,264,733, nearly 150 per cent Michigan with a gain of four members follows California in increased represention. Then comes Texas, with a gain of three. New York and New Jersey gain two each. Arizona, Connecticut, Flor- ida, North Carolina, Ohio and Oklahoma each will gain one. With a loss of three, Missouri will suffer more than any other State in its representation in Con- gress, her delegation dropping from sixteen to thir- teen. Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky and Mis- sissippi each lose two Representatives. Alabama, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, ‘Tenpessees Vermont and Virginia will each lose one member. There will be no change in the Congressional delegations from| Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Maryland, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming. In each case the change in the Electoral College which elects the President and Vice-President will be the same as the change in the number of Rep- resentatives. There was a close contest between California and Texas for the fifth place among the States. Texas won by about 169,000, with a population of 5811,000 against California’s 5,642,000. Texas Wwill have twenty-one Congressmen and California twenty. All the States, including those which lose rep- resentation in Congress, have actually made popu- lation gains. But, under the law the membership in the next Congress is limited to the number in the present, 435 members, and, therefore, the population per Congressman will be a lot larger. FORMER SECRETARY BAKER FOR PROHIBITION REPEAL. Pormer Secretary of War Newton D. Baker is supporting a wet for United States Senator from Ohio. Mr. Baker is one of the clearest thinkers in America. While he is open minded, he has convictions based upon his reason, judgment and experience, and.they are, therefore, strong convic- tlons, and he always and under all circumstances has courage equal to his convictions. When he ad- vocates the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment he does it without the slightest regard for political effect. He does it because his consclence and Judgment of right and wrong have convinced him that the Amendment ought to be repealed in the interest of the general welfare. FOR AIRWAYS. The Weather Bureau of the United States De- partment of Agriculture has expanded its service in aid of aviation, which will provide frequent and regular weather reports covering approximately 18,- 000 miles of airways. On about 8,000 miles of these airways teletype lines will provide 24-hour com- munication with exchange of reports once each hour. The remaining 5000 miles will be served by reports transmitted by telephone or telegraph. Outside of continental United States, the Bureau is increasing its alrways service in Alaska, where a new first order station is being organized at Nome. Pilot balloons will be stationed at Nome and Fafr- banks. The service in the Hawailan Islands will include a chain of interisland stations from which reports will be transmitted by radio to Honolulu, there to be available for the information of pilots flying from one island to another FORECAS EXODUS OF YOUNG L THE CANADIANS TO the people of this Territory to famish for lack of | meat.

From California comes word that Mrs. Leann2 Charity Donner App has just died at the age of 195. In the East the name means nothing. In Cali- {fornia her maiden name, Donner, is still remem- | bered because of the ill-fated Donner expedition, | of which she was the last surviving member, which |crossed the plains in the Winter of 1846-47 and |met a series of ghastly disaster in the Sierra al- most unequaled among the many tragedies that |marked the covered-wagon era in the gold-rush Like other emigrant trains headed for California, the party was made up of families that joined it 1t various places en route, some coming from Missour’, some from Iowa, and others from other States. Without competent leadership the party tried a new cut-off supposed to shorten the distance to Salt Lake. Unable to force a way through the Rockies, they back-tracked, and finally reached Salt Lake a month late, with their animals exhausted by the detour. Realizing that speed was essential if they were to go through the Sierra Nevada before the snows,! the deaders failed to stay long enough for their animals to recuperate. With bad judgment they went lightly burdened with food. Delays and mis- fortunes appeared at every turn. The lava beds| southwest of Salt Lake proved wearing and slowedi jup the caravan. One night most of the cattle were stolen by the Indians. Two of the best leaders, |Reed and Snyder, quarreled, the latter being killed. Reed was thereupon exiled by the group. Gam- was scarce, and soon they were driven to eating itheir draft animals. Worst of all, the snows came ahead of schedule, and began with a blizzard that lasted a week and drove off most of the remaining horses and cattls, | With inadequate shelter and practically foodless, the itask of getting wood and of hunting game rapidly |exhausted the men. An advance party set out to| |try to push through to California for help. It, ton, met with disaster. The snow continued to fall—n |the higher parts of the Sierra twenty feet or more on the level is not uncommon. The split-up groups |fared no better, and men and children began to dis. i Largely through the efforts of Reed, the man whom the party had expelled, and who had man- aged to get through by another route, a rescue party | finally Mfought its way through the snows in the| Spring. But calamity had not yet deserted the! \project, for the food cache which was to help brin;:} |the survivors through was rifled by wild animals. | |At last, with renewed help from the outside, the| survivors—mostly women and a few children—finally descended from the frozen Sierra into the flower- | decked valley of California. Out of the original | party of eighty-seven, only forty-eight came througn | alive, of whom Leanna Donner was one. The last eighty years of her life were spent in comfortable obscurity—a sturdy survivor of the pioneer breed. | Canada Buys Le ! (Olympia Olympian.) Exports from the United States to Canada dur- ing May dropped $24,000,000 as compared with the figures for May of last year, according to figures! made public at @ttawa. In May of 1929 the exports | were $89,000,000; in May of 1930 they were $65,- | 1000,000. This slump, according to a dispatch from Ot- tawa, is chiefly due to the tariff increases which | Canada instituted this Spring in reprisal for the new American tariff law. Of course, we are a prosperous country, ani $24,000,000 doesn’t mean very much to us. Still, one cannot help wondering just how this drop in the export trade is going to help American industry Iout of its present depression. You might remember, too, that Canada hitherto has been America's best customer. The Defeat of Mr. Michaelson. (New York World.) Some time ago, it will be recalled, Representative M. A. Michaelson of Illinois was tried at Key Wes*, Fla., for breaking the Prohibition law. Mr. Michael- son had voted dry in Congress for years, and was indicted after a trunk which it was alleged he brought from Cuba was found to contain liquor. At his trial he said the liquor belonged to his brother- in-law, Walter Gramm, and was found not guilty. When Gramm came up for trial he pleaded guilty and was let off with a fine. “I have no Gesire to punish him,” said the court, “for the faults of the escaped Congressman—one of those who votes dry an drinks wet.” The voters of the Seventh District of Illinois, which Mr. Michaelson has represented for six terms, apparently felt the same way about it. A recount just completed thére shows that al- though he had Republican organization support he was defeated by James M. Moreland, an avowed wet. This is worth nothing,.as it shows that American voters are not yet ready to accept the Anti-Saloon League dictum that voting dry is the only thing that counts. Amid all the talk about American claims ‘o {territory in Antarctica, history continues to attest that the first man to reach the Pole was a Nor- wegian and the second one an Englishman.—(De- troit Free Press.)
