She was a native of Kosse, and lived in Corsicana 36-years Survivors Include a son, Lawrence A. Boyd of San Antonio; a daughter, Mrs. Anne R. Huff of Fort Worth; Proposed redistricting plan recognizes integrity ontinurd from Pg. 1 He said the present precincts do not satisfy any of the requirements for a redistricting plan.

He said the new plan reduces the population variances In each precinct, recognizes the Integrity of the black community and recognizes natural boundaries in the county. CM THE NEW plan Precinct One would have a population of 7,924, 136 persons more than the ideal with a deviation of 1.8 per cent. Precinct Two would have 7,583 persons, 205 less than the ideal with a deviation of 2.6 per cent. Precinct Three would have a population of 7,848,60 persons more than the ideal with a deviation of .8 per cent and precinct four would have 7,795 or 7 persons more than the ideal with no appreciable deviation. The total deviation would be 4.4 per cent, Cline said.

The new plan draws lines along the enumeration districts so that the population in each district can be more exactly determined. Only two enumeration districts are cut In two, making it necessary to estimate the number of persons in each part of the district. However, Cline explained, the estimate was based on maps showing population densities in each half of the enumeration district and were fairly accurate. The estimate was made by two or more persons, Cline said. LUNA, ATTORNEY for the county, pointed out that the Census Bureau had issued a warning against using enumeration district boundaries for other purposes.

Cline said he did not know about the warning, but said he could see why it was issued He said the bureau probably want to have to explain why its employes drew the lines the way they did. He said the census bureau drew the lines for its own use and the lines tended to follow natural boundaries but sometimes had to be drawn for the convenience of the census bureau. Another objection to the new plan Luna made was that In the case of an enumeration district being split the estimate of population in each part of the district could only be a guess. Gine said that it would be an educated estimate based on several sources of Information. attacked the new plan, saying the areas drawn off for precincts were not compact and did not resemble rectangles or squares.

HAVE as a characteristic rather than hour Cline said, referring to the hour-glass shape of the present Precinct One. Luna, pointing to the map of the new plan, asked it not a fair statement that one of the new precincts on the plan has the shape of a reptile and has as a Judge Hughes at that point broke in. that a fair she said. Luna asked if natural boundaries such as highways and railroads and rivers were taken Into consideration when the new lines were drawn. Cline said that the enumeration districts follow natural boundaries a good deal ot the time and were used for purity of data, but he also said that natural boundaries were not a prime consideration.

WHEN LUNA asked how a person would know what precinct he was In since there were few natural boundaries marking the precinct, Cline replied that a person could on their registration Luna then protested that the density maps which were used to estimate population In each section of a split enumeration district were compiled from old maps and that Corsicana had changed, making the data incorrect. Cline said the density maps were merely to show areas of concentration of population, not exact figures. The maps were used to estimate how much of the population lived in a certain area when an enumeration district was split. Lawrence P. Tilton of Corsicana; three sisters, Mrs.
