Kansas Will Not Reapportion Legislature This Session
The Kansas Attorney General says there is little chance to revise the Legislature to meet a U S Supreme Court reapportionment ruling before the 1965 session.

The House has 125 seats: 105 by county with one each and 20 allocated to populous counties. Sedgwick gets eight, Johnson and Wyandotte four each, Shawnee three, Reno one.
