26 EPERTS IV ACCORD ON APPORTIONMIENT [ Senator Vandenberg to Re- introduce Bil! With Expec- tation of Success. By the Associated Press. Agreement of experts on the mathe- matical phases of the new reapportion- | ment bill was announced today by Sen- | ator Vandenberg, Republican, of mch-\ & igan,, sponsor of the proposal. Vandenberg disclosed lhll. !he ldfls ory committee of the has unanimously :pproved The hlll oAt surviving members of the whole advis- | ory committee of 1921 approved it and | [ig that Director Steuart and his assistant, Dr. Joseph A. Hill of the Census Bureau, also subscribed to it. Disagreement of the experts was one of the obstacles | to passage of the House bill in the Senate last session. Experts Give Approval. “The results demonstrate.” Vanden- berg said, “that the new bill will have more powerful credentials than ever be- fore because it will have the endorse- ment of many experts who heretofore have been split wide open in rival camps | in the ‘war of the guotients.’” Among the experts said to have voiced approval were Prof. Waller F. Wmcoxi of Cornell University, m! Robert E. Chaddock of Columbia University, Prof. George Barnett of Johns Hopkins Uni- | versity and other members of the Amer- | iean Statistical Association and llle\ American Economics Association, Vendenberg has been assured ol action on the bill in the special session. | The new bill, Vandenberg said, will closely follow the Fenn bill, which | passed the House but failed of action in the Senate. It will provide for au- | tomatic reapportionment of the House | of Representatives after each census if Congress fails to act independently, It | differs from the Fenn bill, however, in | certain mechanical details, which Van- denberg said would “make for perma- nence.” 1 One Tmportant Change. | *“The principal change,” he explained, | “abandons any specific definition of the | mathematical methods to be followed in | an automatic reapportionment. The | new bill calls for the methods in the | Jast apportionment. This permits the | measure to accommodate itself to what- ever serial decision Congress makes in | actual decennial apportionments and thus avoids temporny definitions in | permment legislation. | my opinion, there will be no ra- | t!onsl opposition left. The bill will bf ‘ devoid of controversial details which ought to be settled on their merits h'lr each actual decennial apportionment.” | Vandenberg said he would introduce the bill at “the first moment the Senlte is ready to receive new legislation.” FIND SOLDIER'S BONES.
