Committeemen Will Not Silently
Submit to Reduction of Del
egates in Convention.
WASHINGTON. L>f . IS South-
ern members of the Republican Na
tional Committee to-day planned to
make a strenuous fight against hav
ing their representation reduced by
79 votes in national convention. The
committee late yesterday made the
reduction.
The action of the national com
mittee in reducing the Southern rep
resentation from 40 to 16 per cent
was admittedly Illegal The commit
tee agreed on this point before it
took the action, but the members of
the committee held that they were
“confident that the next convention
would ratify their move" and pass
resolutions which would render an il
legal action legal.
It is on this ground that the South
ern members of the committee will
tigh the reduction. Before the change
in representation can be presented
to the national convention as the
official action of the committee It
will have to be ratified by the States
holding a majority of the votes in
the electoral college.
Under the plan agreed upon the
States losing delegates are Alabama,
ft; Arkansas. 3; Florida. 4; Georgia,
JO; Kentucky, i; Louisiana, 7; Mis
sissippi, 8; North Carolina, 3; South
Carolina, 7; Tennessee, 3. Texas. 15;
Virginia, ft; Illinois. 2; New York, 4;
Pennsylvania. 1; Hawaii, 4.

thanks were adopted Wednesday aft
ernoon at th»* meeting of the directors
