My own northern district of New York has the same population or a little more than the State of Oklahoma. and we get along very nicely with 2 Federal judges. I see no justification whatever for giving Oklahoma five when two can do the business in New York State. As the gentleman from Michigan has suggested. it. is not entirely a matter of population. it is the amount of litigation that should be the determining factor. but it is well to bear in mind that the northern district of New York borders on Canada. and we have many deportation cases in our district court. It is also a manufacturing State. which means we have much patent litigation. It is in the heart of the industrial East. where there is a great deal of litigation caused by diversity of citizenship.
