n ai point menl of the d legates to na-
tional com eitttens.
Tim presenl plans foi the appor-
tionment "f dclagCea based on popu-
lation providea for four delegates at
large from each at ate two delogntes-
..t large for .-.o h representatlve-at
bit-ge in congreaa and two delegates
fro. ii c o b congressional district.
Tin- presold delegate repreoenta-
Ibill in a national convention Is 1.
f'C2.
Th. firs suggestion "f the enngros
lanal committee which would make
the total delegate representation I-
041. Is as follows:
"''ni each of such districts In will' h
the vote cast f'"' the republican ''un-
dulate for presidential election in
mns wus mi mors than 10 per cent
of the to ii rote enst for presidential
.-lectors ill such district In such elec-
tion one delegate; for en. b of such
districts in w hich su. h republican vote
was forty per cent hut not mora than
f0 per cent two delegates; for each
of such dlO'rlot In which such repub-
lican voli was mote than (0 percent
three del. galea.
"In any State where a reapportion
n int a t has not been paasod to pro-
Vide the full number of congressional
districts such states shall be entitled
to dslegntas at largi for eanh roprs-
send tlv e at-large In congress al the
above ratio comparing the full vote
of the slat.- with th total republican
vole in th" state
"Upon this basis i e presenl. ill .ni for
the southern sales would be dimin-
ished i'id In some of the states It
would la- logreassd. For example
Alabama would he reduced from 2
i i fifteen delegates! Arkansas from
I to 1 !; Ooorgia froin -S to IgfRouth
Carolina ft "in II to 11 and oilier
southern states accordingly New
Fork w ould be ho I i used from 90 t"
n': MaSBSChUOSl'.tS from rtU to 4t;
Illinois from 'iS to III und so on
Alternative reapporttonmenH plans
llfrgOSted are (be following
"Kour delegates at Inrire for eacb
atate and ti addition thereto one del
egate for each 10001 votes or major
fractina hereof cast for the republi-
can candidate for presidential e lec-
ture In 1"0S."
Or ' four delegates at large for each
elate ami f..t each eongrssxdonnl din-
tii. t on- delegate for each 1" ctoo votes
or maior portion frnetton thereof east
for the republloaa oandtdwtos for
presidential electors in 1001; provtd
sd thai each ponat easlonal dtstrlct
shall hive at least one dolegate and
there shall he two for each congress-
man at larg" "
The former plan would cut the to-
tal delena Ion representation to 94.'
