Present Membership of House by States and Reapportionment Plans
Washington March 12 By 49 (cated Press) plans for reapportionment of representation on the basis of the 1930 census have been launched in the House of Representatives with nine bills. One bill may pass before the session ends. The Hart Fenn bill, chairman of the census committee, provides the House be 480 members after 1933, apportioned by equal proportions. History shows flaws in older methods, prompting automatic and equal-proportions approaches. Several bills propose automatic reapportionment after each census. others contemplate reducing House size to 300 members if reapportionment fails. Previous efforts stalled in the House by a few votes.
