Unprecedented Action To Force Reapportionment
In Harrisburg on February 2 an unprecedented petition seeks to compel passage of reapportionment legislation for the State Senate and House. The Northeast Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce asks Attorney General James H. Duff to file suit against the legislature, its members, and Governor Edward Martin to require districts be compact and equal in population. Governor Martin has urged reapportionment of congressional, senatorial, and judicial districts, but the Legislature has not acted. An authoritative source says the attorney general may decline to act since the judiciary lacks power over legislative and executive branches.
