Decision to this effect was reached after Secretary Weeks held several conferences and the subject had lioen , discusnsd at a regular cabinet meet ing. Secretary Weeks reiterated today that the federal government was not disposed to employ federal troops except as a last resort. Kentucky has state troops, he said, and although Wear Virginia has none she has. with Kentucky, a number of special offi cers on the scene. He also declared reports to the de partment indicate the situation Is quieter. Attorney General Dougherty, who conferred with M’eeks, said if the trouble continued to any great extent the federal government would be'Jus tified In taking a hand, and while re ports to his department said the situa tion was serious, he sail they showed Inly six or *e)-en killed, much less than other reports. Those cansing tire trouble, he said, : are qqt West Virginians, but prob ably professional agitators from Colo rado, Alabama and other states.

Monday lyght Two-Day Session of Knights and Pythian Sisters Con venes Today. ity yesterday morning. Dr. McPher- gen advised changes in the method of selecting representatives. "According to the modern democra tic theory of equality,, the represen tatives In the state legislature should be apportioned among districts con taining substantially an equal num ber of Inhabitants.'' said Dr. McPher son. "It Is pot Talr that Atlanta and Fulton county with her 250,000 Inhabi tants shall have - no more represen tatives In our legislature than, any, three small counties In some undevel oped part of the state with no more than. 15,000 population (pr the three counties—yet such Is the case as it now prevkns in Georgia," continued Dr. McPherson'. "With every legislature that meets creating new counties, and each of the counties getting a representative, Georgia can not expect Just and eqult, able representation. Furthermore all these newly created counties are bur dens to the stafe financially. Georgia already has too many counties-and it does seem that the people would see this and put an end to this business of creating counties where there Is abso lutely no need or cause for them.' It Is Dr. McPherson's Idea that rep resentation in both bouses of the Geor gia legislature should be based upon some division of the number of inhab itants in the states, rather than upon tho present geographical divisions. Ho would not. however, discriminate against the .rural district In favor of the cities, but Instead suggests (hat nojllBtWct—by whatever boundary It shall be fixed—shall have more than a certain percentage of the entjrp num- •sttrmnmf ra Ne*Toi*, for; Instance, it -ia;provlded that no county, no matter bow populous, shall have more than One-third of all. the senators. “Is it fair that a man. Just because he happens to live In a city, have less political rights ' from the standpoint of representatives than the man who lives In some pparccly set tled section of the state?" asked Dr. McPherson. "Such Is the case In Ceorgla and mapy other states today. "No state cart, prosper with the smaller.counties over-represented and the more populous und'dr-representod. There must be a remdy for such a condition and I feel sure that the leg islature when It assembles In June enn work out each a remedy.
