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.
