The Senator Says By State Senator Robert MeCIory Most people are wondering why ihe Illinois General Assembly is unable to enact legislation to-fb'rm equitable congressional districts for next year's elections. Indeed, it is difficult for your State Senator to understand why the entire Democratic minority i s blocking a redistricting based upon the 1960 census. The federal Constitution admonishes Appetite Brightener...A Zippy Dessert $ - - To perk up a menu, a conversation, or a lagging appetite, serve this Ginger Grape Dessert. Grape flavor gelatin blended with white seedless grapes is a pretty and flavorful mold. Or, allow the dessert to set in a crystal serving dish. A garnish of whipped ginger topping adds zip to this refreshing dessert. Ginger Grape Dessert 1 regular size package (3 ounces) 1 cup drained canned white grape flavored gelatin seedless grapes 1 cup boiling water Gingered Whipped Cream Canned white grape juice and cold water to make 1 cup Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add cold water and juice. Chill until slightly thickened. Fold in grapes. Pour into serving dish or mold. Chill until firm. Garnish with Gingered Whipped Cream, if desired. Makes 6 servings. To make Gingered Whipped Cream, beat 1/2 cup whipped cream until thick and fluffy. Fold in 1-1/2 tablespoons sugar and 1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger. Blend well. the states' to redistrict following each decennial census. The fact that Illinois may elect only twenty-four (instead of the twenty-five Congressmen we have had in the past), means that all twenty-four will be re quired to rjjn at large (statewide) unless twenty-four newdistricts are established. On the basis of the present population. Chicago is entitled to only 8.3 districts. Still, at the regular session 'which ended in July) we failed to redistrict because the Chicago Democratic members insisted on retaining the ten districts which they have had since the 1951 redistricting. At the present special session, the Chicago Democratic members .are demanding nine districts. In an effort to resolve the controversy, the Republicans have proposed one "swing" district, to consist of some Chicago wards and one suburban township. This is opposed by the Democrats because it is charged that a Republican Congressman would be elected from such a district. The present dilemma can be resolved by the decision of one man, Mayor Daley of Chicago, the state's Democratic leader. If the swing district can be approved (which the present population distribution justifies), the redistricting bill can be passed readily. The other alternative is for the Republican members of the House and Senate to capitulate to Mayor Daley's demands. A basic principle of representative government is involved in this issue facing y#tr State Senator. This principle is that the people are entitled to be represented by individual Congressmen elected from compact districts having approximately equal population. Every effort will be made to support this principle. Still, this question, remains: If it is impossible to achieve an equitable redistricting, should not the principle yield to a praWiical solution which1 will avoid the election of twenty-foiw Congressmen at large? The special session of . ihe General Assembly will resume on Tuesday, Nov. 28. It is hoped that fair and " honorable solution to the congressional redistricting may be found at that time.
