$ About the thing you can give a man for fltfll n{vwfthlttthe women won't use is a cuspidor. There is a feeling growing and there that Mussolini soon have taken enough rope to CURB THE "QUEER GUY" The alienists urge that the "queer guy" be curbed as a preven-- tion of crime. He is characterized by psychiatrists and institu-- tional heads as one of the country's greatest crime problems, par-- ticularly in view of the fact that no provision exists in law for society's protection from his emotional outbursts. The description of the "queer guy" is what interests us most. He is described as one "frequently in conflict, and who does not fit, even in the best circumstances." He is neither feeble--minded nor insane, but often seems to feel that people are against him. He desires newspaper notoriety above all else.

It is seven years now since the last census was taken, but congress has neglected to make the reapportionment required by the basic law of the land, which means that, if the strict letter of that law were to be followed, no law or a¢t of congress in those seven years is valid. For seven years the lower branch of congress has been unconstitutionally constituted because it has denied equal repre-- sentation to the voters of the country. _Somehow we hate to think guys. | Hundreds of thousands of American voters are partially dis-- franchised because the present membership does not truly reflect the population of the country.: This is a state of: affairs which cannot continue indefinitely if popular government is to be pre-- served. | Every session of congress since the census of 1920 has pro-- duced an attempt to effect a reapportionment. All have failed, and there is grave danger that of Congressman Tilson in the pres-- ent session will suffer a like fate. Reapportionment now would mean that several states that have increased in population would gain representation while others, showing population losses, would be deprived of some of their members in the house. These latter, for purely political and selfish reasons, have been able to retain their illegal representation and deny to other states the additional members to which they are legally entitled. * There has been much talk in congress of obedience to law and upholding the constitution.
