An appeal has just been filed
to the supreme court asking a
hearing on the decision in Marion
county that declared the 1952
amendment constitutional. It is
based on the provisions that make
apportionment a function of the
executive and judicial branches
of government instead of the leg-
Islative. It is, and should remain,
a legislative function. The appeal
might well lie based on the lack
of adherence to the federal sys

state is guaranteed.
