New York state's loss of seatsresults from the fact that its popu-lation growth in tlSe period 1W0-50 was smaller than the 'averagenationwide. A legisl*t*r commit-tee headed by Sen. Pliny W. Wifiiiamson of Westeaeiler is current-ly working on the reapportionment.

In theory, every congressionaldistrict should have the same num-ber of inhabitants, but as a mat-ter of practice that has isever teesnthe ease. As presently appor-tioned, Hew York's a* ricts Varyn population from the ^ t h ' s 254;-^547 to the SeeondV W1$m,

Recommended fey President Tru-man and introduced by Congress-man Emanuel Cellar (D-OT) thenew bill for reapportiontnent sets360,000 as the ideal population fora congressional district with tee^way provided>>.«^fpj|5 per cent.Thus/ under the administration billno ̂ 0nm-^oM^^::mm - thai

^^o*t |W0| Question was broughtto our attention the other day asto just who^co#d become a Grangemember. The idea still prevailsthat only a working farmer ise^gibie. Ac^mlly this is not so,andfJCational Grange is urging thatmembers of oar state and nationallegislatures might well be inter-ested members. Our by-laws, on\^yn^^''-,^r9i»^^ (amongother qualifications, of course)

I road in part : **Any person inter-ested in agricultural pursuits andhaving ^o intere^te in conflict witho«r puirpps^, «te.*V

We are reminded of an interest-ing incident back in the early dayswhen only farmers were eligible.U happened in Fredonia GrangeNo. 1, in Chautauqua county whenthe members thought Louis Mc-Efnstry, then editor of the localp&pet* would make a good secre-tary. His father, one of the mem-bers, gave him six hens from hiefloefe^ thereby potting his son inthe poultry business. This wasthe same Louis McKinstr" whowent on to become editor of adaily jiaper at Watertown, andwhose interest in Grange madethat area the strong Grange sec-t ion it is today. '-• 'J. •::::

l u s t about everyone tifco ^ ^has a stake in agriculture today,

and that makes pretty near every- | BLIND BOGEY TOURNEYbody a potential Granger ! AT CRAIG WOTO CLW SUN.

Last week we called your atT.v- =tkm to the Middie Atlantic Grange •Lecturers' Conference to be heldf

in Ithaca, and thought a great 'many would be interested in going. 1We neglected to give the date*, jwhizh are July 19, 20 and 21. Yourjlecturer should go, by all mean*.!

Grange's 8-point determined, at ,the annual session in Mtnneapo'.i^ jlast year, in view of the threats:to our freedom, and the necessity!of prompt action by our govern.- jment, wiil bear repeating at thistime when considerable verbiageis being spent on our Defense Mo- •bilization Act. We feel that it isa pretty sound program to takecare of any eventuality: "(1) We jmust rebuild our military might 10repel all future attacks; (2) Wemust develop a sound tax system.There must be no war profiteer-ing; (3) We must finance war'scost from current taxes, reqmTiag:an austerity program both gov- •eminent and .personal; <4> Wemust allocate critical B*at«ria4s bycompulsion if voluntary means fail;(5) We must attack inflation atits source through relation of sup-ply of money ti> goods; (6) jit*must have rationing w&er. supplyof goods become short; (7) Wemust control prices* if r&ti<i»L3salone fails to prevent profiteer-ing; <8) We must if necessary, teecontrol inflation* control wages,prices and profits together, acrossthe board."

A blind bogey tournament willbe held at the Craig Wbo* Golfand Country Club Sunday wifcttprises for men and women.

An inter-club match is being ar-ranged by Ray LaOoy, local pro-fessional, with tentative &aeep*antes • to date from Ticonderflg*and Port Henry. An inter-clubtournament will be held June 2$at the Saranac Lake Golf club bymembers of the Ladies Golf Asso-ciation.
