In throwing out the 1903 Hanna amendment, the court said: "If the General Assembly fails to take appropriate action as herein provided in time for submission of a constitutional amendment to a vote of the people in 1965, this court will provide such remedies as it may consider appropriate to meet requirements of Constitution the United The three-judge panel was the same one in 1962 which upheld the constitutionality of the amendment.

But that opinion was reversed last June 22 by the U. S. Supreme Court, which ordered the special court to reconsider the complaints. The suits were in 1962 by James D. Nolan of Cleveland and the Cincinnati City Charter Committee and later consolidated.

Kenneth Weinberg, an attorney for the plaintiffs, said the apportionment provisions of the 1851 Ohio constitution would meet the requirements set up U. S. Supreme Court. Article 11 of the Constitution calls for a mathematical formula in determining representation. The 1851 formula was "good and fair," Weinberg said, but had been "subverted by the Hanna Amendment at (which) denied the of Ohio fair and equal representation in the House of Representatives." Leonard M.

Sive, president of the Cincinnati Committee, and Forest Frank, director, said in a joint statement: "This removes an important obstacle to action by the state legislature for relief of many of the problems of the larger urban counties. We join with the court in expressing the hope that the legislature will nOw take the opportunity the court has given it to devise an apportionment plan fair to the larger metropolitan areas of the state." Ohio Atty. Gen. William B. Saxbe argued before the court that the best solution would be leave the matter the next General Assembly and the voters.

Many of those present did not realize the importance of farm products to the national economy. The report stated that agriculture was the largest source of dollar earning in the United States for the last year, exporting almost $5 billion dollars worth of produce. The following percentages were shipped abroad: 60 per cent of wheat 45 grown; cent 55 per cent beans; of the 35 soy per cent tallow; 35 per cent barley; 30 per cent grain sorgham; 26 per cent corn; 25 per cent cotton; 24 per cent tobacco; 17 per cent lard and 10 per cent of fresh fruits. The letter urged that Grangers back up the Department of Agriculture in passing laws favorable to the farmer. It was announced that handmade aprons and certain items of baked goods would be used in grange contests during the year.

MISS BERTHA LEFFLER, lecturer, presented the following program: Mrs. Sam Brown read a poem on October; Ed Bailey, insurance adjuster for the grange, explained the recently adopted "Ohio after 65" insurance program which has been tailored for persons of retirement age.

A great deal of interest was aroused in the audience by a Mysterious Stranger, who wandered into the gathering. She was of pleasant but arresting aspect and refused to talk, but indicated by signs that she was glad to be there and was sure had joined the right group, about which there was some doubt. She was very friendly, shaking hands with all present. Guesses as to her identity brought a negative response until someone said "Ethel Reedand it was Mrs. William Reeder, masquerading.
