IT PROBABLY WILL AT NEXT ASSEMBLY Abbeville, Feb. 5.'There is considerable pother in the press of c Western North Carolina oyer the j question of reapportionment of ] the membership of the General j Assembly. r It is well that this matter bei c discussed now and the people! x thoronchlv understand the situ-1 ation. There is nothing new about this question, when it is considered in all its ramifications. In; fact it is almost as old as tforth Carolina. Did you ever study a map of the State and observe the shoestring counties, down east that consist largely of water and a narrow Strip of land, and wonder how "this came about? As the population of the State began to surge westward, necessitating the creation of new counties in the west, the east, which then held and still holds the most votes in both houses of the Assembly .did not intend to relinquish power that goes with the majority of votes. So every time a new county had to be made in the west, a new one was also created in the east; and the voting majority in the Assembly remained in the east; regardless of what political party or faction held the whip hand in the State. c This condition existed up to r the time of the taking of the census of 1930. The population, t the wealth, the votes in general v elections and primaries had all g shifted to the west; but the east t ofm ViolH fho mnirrrltv in the OVU1 l»«v n.. .i.j ^ General Assembly. The Constitu- ^ tion said that the membership c should be reapportioned after ev- £ ery decennial census, upon the t basis of population. But, the reapportionment had to be made by thb General Assembly. There . an^reapjw J was renewed; and there was at1 great scirap, with fireworks; and r the east won again, with the help of some western votes. That year, the Jackson representative, Mr. J Tompkins, was a first-termer in ' the House, and he voted and worked for reapportionment, as J n«iA*r,v, will siih- W10 rCl/UIU XXX xvaici^ui Tf MA www stantiate. ] » In 1937 the fight was on again, J and the east again won, with the help of some western votes, including that of Jackson and one ® adjoining county. The western Republicans, take them by and J large, v^ere provoked with their J Democratic neighbors from the same part of the State, and most e of them voted with the east, as 2 did a few western Democrats. In 1939, every leader of the As- . sembly, regardless of what section of the state he came from, J agreed that it would be useless and foolish to make the fight all c over again, with another census just a year away. But, everybody agreed that the matter will come J up for a finish fight in the Gen- * eral Assembly of 1941. There are * enough members, or probably will be, from the east, who recog- 1 nize the righteousness of the c cause, and their duty to obey the 1 Constitution,, to effect the reapportionment of both House and T Senate, at the 1941 session.pro- c vided the west will Vote as a unit ) on this important matter. . > It will be of no direct benefit to * small counties in the west, like ] Tontenn for example, for we will U «,. have but one Representative j anyway. But, it'will be an indi- f rect benefit, in that our section of { the State will have the repre- , sentation that it is entitled to , have, under the Constitution, i Buncombe will probably pick up , an additional representative, as j will Mecklenburg, Forsyth, Gas- j ton, and perhaps one or two oth- f, er western counties. And, every j representative that is reappor- , tioned to the west will take a j 1 j representative^ away from an j eastern county. Johnston, New j Hanover, Rockingham, Nash, and some other eastern counties will , probably be the ones to lose rep- , resentation. ' i But, the west does the voting in the elections, pays the larger < part of the. bills, and has the population. The last is the thing upon which the Constitution says representation shall be based, each county having not less 'than one representative in the ' W i 7 4 .. : - j »' .;'!V i- . . * / : I : " ' i Coir ' -*3?- V 'V H | .. 40RTH CAROLINA, FEBRUARY i Honor Court Scouts Was The regular monthly boy scout J :ourt of bpnor for the Smoky .

The. thing that . tias helped most to retain the ^ balance of power east of Raleigh, 1 ill through the years, is not j ;hat eastern Senators and Repre- ] sentatives are any smarter than } their colleagues from the west. It Is that the East has maintained a * policy of returning the same men ( to Raleigh year after year, unti? , they are experienced in the arts ( of legislative procedure, and hold that prestige which experience and long service give to any man. < The western counties, on the contrary, have continued to send < first one man and then another to represent them in the House and the Senate.

REAPPORTIONMENT ISHOULD BE MADE.IT PROBABLY WILLATNEXTASSEMBLY

Abbeville, Feb. 5.'There is considerablepother in the press of cWestern North Carolina oyer the jquestion of reapportionment of ]the membership of the General jAssembly. r

It is well that this matter bei cdiscussed now and the people! xthoronchlv understand the situ-1ation.There is nothing new about

this question, when it is consideredin all its ramifications. In; factit is almost as old as tforth Carolina.Did you ever study a map ofthe State and observe the shoestringcounties, down east thatconsist largely of water and anarrow Strip of land, and wonderhow "this came about? As thepopulation of the State began tosurge westward, necessitating thecreation of new counties in thewest, the east, which then heldand still holds the most votes inboth houses of the Assembly.didnot intend to relinquish powerthat goes with the majority ofvotes. So every time a new countyhad to be made in the west, anew one was also created in theeast; and the voting majority inthe Assembly remained in theeast; regardless of what politicalparty or faction held the whiphand in the State. cThis condition existed up to r

the time of the taking of thecensus of 1930. The population, tthe wealth, the votes in general velections and primaries had all gshifted to the west; but the east tofm ViolH fho mnirrrltv in theOVU1 l»«v n.. .i.j ^

General Assembly. The Constitu- ^tion said that the membership cshould be reapportioned after ev- £ery decennial census, upon the tbasis of population. But, thereapportionmenthad to be madeby thb General Assembly. There .

an^reapjwJwas renewed; and there was at1great scirap, with fireworks; and rthe east won again, with the helpof some western votes. That year,the Jackson representative, Mr. JTompkins, was a first-termer in

'

the House, and he voted andworked for reapportionment, as

J n«iA*r,v, will siih-W10 rCl/UIU XXX xvaici^ui Tf MA www

stantiate. ] »

In 1937 the fight was on again, Jand the east again won, with thehelp of some western votes, includingthat of Jackson and one

®

adjoining county. The westernRepublicans, take them by and Jlarge, v^ere provoked with their JDemocratic neighbors from thesame part of the State, and most e

of them voted with the east, as2

did a few western Democrats.In 1939, every leader of the As- .

sembly, regardless of what sectionof the state he came from, Jagreed that it would be uselessand foolish to make the fight all c

over again, with another census

just a year away. But, everybodyagreed that the matter will come Jup for a finish fight in the Gen- *

eral Assembly of 1941. There are *

enough members, or probablywill be, from the east, who recog- 1

nize the righteousness of the c

cause, and their duty to obey the 1

Constitution,, to effect the reapportionmentof both House and T

Senate, at the 1941 session.pro- c

vided the west will Vote as a unit )on this important matter. .

>

It will be of no direct benefit to *

small counties in the west, like ]Tontenn for example, for we willU «,.

have but one Representative janyway. But, it'will be an indi- f

rect benefit, in that our section of {the State will have the repre- ,

sentation that it is entitled to ,

have, under the Constitution, i

Buncombe will probably pick up ,

an additional representative, as jwill Mecklenburg, Forsyth, Gas- j

ton, and perhaps one or two oth- f,er western counties. And, every j

representative that is reappor- ,

tioned to the west will take a j 1

j representative^ away from an j

eastern county. Johnston, New

j Hanover, Rockingham, Nash, andsome other eastern counties will ,

probably be the ones to lose rep- ,

resentation.'

i

But, the west does the votingin the elections, pays the larger <

part of the. bills, and has the

population. The last is the thing

upon which the Constitutionsays representation shall be based,each county having not less

'than one representative in the

We can't help it if the east loses

representation. The. thing that .

tias helped most to retain the ^

balance of power east of Raleigh, 1ill through the years, is not j;hat eastern Senators and Repre- ]sentatives are any smarter than }

their colleagues from the west. It

Is that the East has maintained a *

policy of returning the same men (

to Raleigh year after year, unti? ,

they are experienced in the arts (of legislative procedure, and holdthat prestige which experienceand long service give to any man. <

The western counties, on thecontrary, have continued to send <

first one man and then anotherto represent them in the Houseand the Senate. And the balance 1

of power has remained in the
