Swing's Bill Out of Order No Necessity for Redistricting the State Until After Federal Census The special committee on Congressional reapportionment appointed on the authority of the Executive and Advisory Committees of the republican county central committee, have met and considered the subject and have taken the position that there should be no action by the California Legislature having for its object the redistricting of the state until after the census. William J. O'Trien is chiefman of the special committee having the matter in hand and when asked for his views said: "The subject of congressional reapportionment is important to California and particularly to Southern California. Since 1920 we have been trying without success, to get the representation in the lower House of Congress to which we are entitled under the constitution. It looked for a few days after the passage of the Fenn bill by the House of the last congress that we might get some additional members, but the bill finally failed of passage because of inability to bring it to a vote in the senate. "The situation at present is promising. Senator Vandenberg of Michigan introduced a bill which is designed to prevent the recurrence of such a situation as we have met since 1920. This bill fixes the membership of the House of Representatives permanently at 435, and provides that the President after each decennial census, shall re-apportion the membership among the several states in accordance with the provisions of the constitution. "This bill has been consolidated with the bill for taking of the census and has been reported to the senate with a recommendation that it pass and is on the calendar, and will be taken up when the senate disposes of the farm relief bill. This bill should be, and no doubt will be supported by all of California's representatives. It will be seen, however, that we will not know..." House of Representatives permanently at 435, and provides that the President after each decennial census, shall re-apportion the membership among the several states in accordance with the provisions of the constitution. "This bill has been consolidated with the bill for taking of the census and has been reported to the senate with a recommendation that it pass and is on the calendar, and will be taken up when the senate disposes of the farm relief bill. This bill should be, and no doubt will be supported by all of California's representatives. It will be seen, however, that we will not know until after the census has bene taken, and the President has acted, how many members this state will have, but it is reasonably certain that we will have more than seventeen, the number that the Fenn bill would have given us. "In January, when it seemed probable that the Penn bill would pass, Senator Swing of San Bernardino introduced a bill into the state senate which was intended to furnish the groundwork upon which to build a redistricting bill by the present legislature, and it was because of the possibility that this bill might be pressed and an attempt be made by this legislature to redistrict the state that the special committee on reapportionment has acted. "Even if the membership to which California will be entitled was known at the time, it would be impossible to redistrict the state in accordance with the constitution until the 1930 population of every assembly district of the state is known, for the constitution provides that congressional districts shall be made up of compact and contiguous assembly districts, and that no assembly district shall be divided. "Event if the Vandenberg proposal fails of adoption and Congress passes a bill that will give to California a definite number of representatives and we should then be entitled to additional representation in the next Congress, still we should vigorously oppose redistricting by the present legislature. "In such an event we should elect congressmen-at-large for such additional number as we might be entitled to and wait for redistricting until the census is taken. It will be impossible to redistrict in accordance with the constitution until then. All anyone should ask is a square deal and an attempt to redistrict at this time would be pure guesswork and could not possibly be made with fairness to the different sections of the state. The people of every part of the state would think they had the worst of it. "Any attempt to redistrict at this time should be unqualifiedly opposed." NEW TARIFF BILL The administration's new tariff bill, designed primarily to protect American agriculture and some of the suffering American industries, like the textile manufacturers, was introduced in the House by Chairman Hawley of House of Representatives permanently at 435, and provides that the President after each decennial census, shall re-apportion the membership among the several states in accordance wi the provisions of the constitution. "This bill has been consolidated with the bill for taking of the census and has been reported to the senate with a recommendation that it pass and is on the calendar, and will be taken up when the senate disposes of the farm relief bill. This bill should be, and no doubt will be supported by all of California's representatives. It will be seen, however, that we will not know until after the census has bene taken, and the President has acted, how many members this state will have, but it is reasonably certain that we will have more than seventeen, the number that the Fenn bill would have given us.

NEW TARIFF BILL The administration's new tariff bill, designed primarily to protect American agriculture and some of the suffering American industries, like the textile manufacturers, was introduced in the House by Chairman Hawley of the ways and means committee. It proposed substantially increased duties on cotton, wool and silk fabrics, sugar and some of the agricultural commodities, and many other scattered imports. Its decreases were few and these chiefly to aid agriculture. Official notice that it will cause a major fight between the two parties was served immediately from the floor when Hawley made a defense of the increased levies and Representative John Gardner, democratic floor leader, assailed the secret method by which the republicans had written it. He could not attack the bill because he had not seen it. The new rates made it evident the committee had not been influenced by protests which have come from abroad, particularly from Cuba and South American countries, concerning the proposed increases on products which they export to this country in large quantities. The sugar tariff was raised to 3 cents a pound with the usual 20 per cent reduction allowed Cuba. The tariff on meats, which the Argentine ships in, were increased materially, but hides were left on the free list. Corn which also comes from Argentine, was raised 10 cents a hundred pounds. Several days will be required for the opposing factors to digest the 434 pages of the bill, and the 274 pages of the respect. The bill will be taken up from the floor Monday under stringent rules by which the majority intends to preserve its content, almost without change.
