N. S. Staff Correspondent) Springfield. 111. Backers of congressional reapportionment took a quick look at a solid wall of down-state opposition in the Illinois House today, called a recess to mull things over, and then pushed through a move to adjourn until next Monday.

Opponents of the bill to remap the state Into 26 districts continued to chant threats to carry on fill-buster tactics should the bill's sponsors try to shove the measure to amendment stage without reference to executive committee. Minority Leader H. B. Harris, (R) of Lincoln, told a reporter he had polled between 80 and 95 votes for the bill, a slim but definite margin over the majority needed for passage. It was believed that the plan to advance the bill without reference was based on statements by several key legislators that the bill was likely to be burled In committee.

No other action took place in the House session. In the Senate, an elections committee report awarding clear title of state senator from the 29th district to Democratic Minority Leader William J. Connors of Chicago was adopted unanimously. Connors' election had been contested by Thomas E. Joyce.

Rep. John W. Lewis, (R) of Marshall, who spearheaded Wednesday's stalling tactics, threatened to hold up all pending legislation until sponsors agree to send the remap measure to executive committee for consideration. Lewis, together with other dissenters, broke into a filibuster stalemating all House business Wednesday after hearing reports that sponsors intended to get immediate advancement of the bill without committee reference. ALLENVILLE WOMAN HIT BY AUTO Leona Mary Maxedon, a middle-aged Allenville resident, was slightly injured today when hit by a car at the Intersection of Sixteenth street and Brosdway.

New Asphalt Plant Being Installed A new asphalt plant, the largest and most modern In a radius of SO miles or more of Mattoon, is under construction at Twenty-fourth street and the Illinois Central System railroad today by Asphalt Pavers Inc. When completed about June 15.

the plant will have a capacity of 900 tons daily and will be completely operated by push-button control through use of- electricity, A. Huckaba, president of the firm, said today. "Unlike some of the older type plants, this unit Is equipped with a dust collector and uses fuel oil for operation of a boiler, thus holding dirt to a minimum," Mr. Huckaba stated. Towers of the plant are approximately GO feet high, and a drier, through which rock mixtures are sent before being combined with asphalt, Is 60 feet long and 48 inches wide.

The boiler generates 133 horsepower and It and the rest of the plant will be operated by a five or six-man crew when ready for regular work. A new asphalt paving machine and new rollers have been purchased for use with the plant "Installation of a complete plant In this city will make It possible to cut asphalt costs for the area approximately 25 per cent," Mr. Huckaba said. "Previously a plant was Installed for a single Job, thus sending costs up at a tremendous rate since cost of installation of the equipment alone Is in the neighborhood of $10,000 or more." Other officers of the company are: First vice-president, A. J.

Walker: second vice-president, Clay Hosklns; third vice-president, J. V. Menefee; secretary-treasurer, Virgil Howell; assistant secretary, C. B. Ward.
