“Building for Learning,” an
A&M 19-minute color sound film
on planning new school construc
tion, has been shown befoi'e 839
audiences since its release in 1948.
After providing guidance on
building schools for nearly 12
years, the 13th film prints have
become completely worn out.

time when the nation was con
fronted with building schools for
the millions of children born dur
ing the war yeai’s.
It pointed out how to plan and
design school buildings giving best
environmental conditions for the
pupil and adaptability for modern
techniques of education. It gave
special emphasis to having ade
quate natural ventilation and light
ing and good acoustics in school
buildings.
Its showings were mostly at
meetings of school boards, Pai’ent-
Teacher’s Assn., architects, college
students and educators.

Texas Expects To Gain Congressman
Loud Congressional Fight Due Soon
On Legislative District Redistributions
By ROBERT E. FORD
Yssociated Press Staff Writer
The loud screams to be heard
soon from Washington and Austin
will be lawmakers debating the
question of who gains congress
men and who loses them.
The 1960 census will show many
population changes, meaning a re
apportionment of cong?'essmen be
tween states and a redistricting
within states.
Present indications are that
Texas will gain one representative.
This without question will create
a dispute about which areas will
gain it. This will be for the Leg-
islature to decide.
Population shifts between states
will force a realignment of the
number of representatives in many
states.
The House normally has 435
members. Admission of Alaska
and Hawaii as states raised the
nuThber to 437.
Congress Must Meet Problems
Congress will be faced with the
problem of (1) taking some repre
sentation away from some states
and adding such representation to
others or (2) increasing the num
ber in the House. It still is too'
early to determine which plan will
be followed.
Best available figures show'
that these states will lose: New
Yo?-k and Pennsylvania, 3 each;
Arkansas, 2; Massachusetts, 2;
and one each in Alabama, Illinois,
Mississippi, Noi'th Carolina, Neb
raska, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Ken
tucky, Minnesota and West Vir
ginia.
California is in position to gain
8; Florida, 4; Hawaii, 2 (including
the one seated when it became a
state); and one each in Texas,
Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey,
Ohio, Alaska (the one seated when
it became a state) and Arizona.
Jobs May Be Lost
Entering into the debate will be
such factors as representatives’
jobs evaporating, loss of votes by
the conservative to more liberal
states of the Midwest and Far
West and possible loss by one
party or the other of representa
tives in a particular state.
After Congress decides how
many representatives each state
will have, it informs each state’s
governor.
It then is up to the Legisla
tures to determine how they shall
select their congressmen.
Long Time Thinking
Texas took plenty of time after
the 1950 census to determine the
district from which its new con
gressmen would be elected. It
used the system of electing a con
gressman at-large—the whole state
voted for one congressman — for
six years.
Then this position was assigned
by the Legislature to Harris Coun
ty (Houston), giving the coastal
city two congi'essmen.
After the 1930 census, Texas
elected three at-large congressmen
but redistricted them in time for
the 1934 elections.
Population shifts within the
state could cause wholesale redis
tricting of Texas to even up the
population in each district.
Rayburn May Lose
It might even affect Dist. 4,
where House Speaker Sam Ray
burn has fought off for 47 years
all efforts to change the boundary
of the area he represents.
