The Illinois State Chamber of Commerce, in a printed study of the state's reapportionment protutss a mockery of representative government in Illinois." Some of the more glaring exarhples of present iniquities, according to the State Chamber's study, include: 1. The 7th district (embracing most of suburban Cook county) had a 1950 population of over 700,000. But the 17th district (a very small area just west of Chicago's loop) had less than 40,4)00 residents. This means a vote in the former is worth only one- sixteenth as much as the vote in the latter. (Theoretically -- with the 1950 population of 8,712,176 divided blems. pointed out this and other j into the state's present fifty-one salient examples of unequal rep- I districts -- each district should resentation which prevail both in j have a rktio representation of Cook county and downstate. 170,827. > Waldo B.

The 25th district (a large ber president, said that findings area in the northwest corner of of the study are being distribut- j Chicago) had a population of state districts (combined population of 1,465,480) elect the same number of senators and representatives as the seven smallest (combined population Of qW 561,547). 5. In 1850, population «f the state's tweny-six smallest districts was 2,299,047 -- or about one-fourth of the entire population. Yet this small percentage was able to elect more than half the legislators. 6. Comparing the* average downstate district with Chicago's five smallest districts shows the downstate voter has only onethird the representation of a voter in Chicago's 17th, and less than half the voice of a voter in Chicago's 1st, 15th, 27th an* 29th districts. Many other examples of glaring inequities- are pointed out is the study, which was made bf the State Chamber's legislative department. It contends that the redisricting plan which goes before the voters in the November general election. FreOtaM* Mik feuying large quantities at dairy feed pays only when milk pricel are extra good.

This means a vote the State Chamber is offering i in the smaller is worth 12 time# unqualified endorsement to the "blue ballot" reapportionment amendment which will be submitted to voters on Nov. 2 this year. "Although the Illinois constitution requires that the state be redistricted every ten years, the task actually has not been undertaken in more thaV fifty more than a vote in the larger. 3. The largest district outside Cook county is the 41st (DuPage and Will counties) which has a population of 288,000. The smallest is the 51st (Hamilton, Johnson, Massac, Pope and Saline counties) with a population of only 73,000.
