TWf NEW. STARS Ffft FUO
0ld6lry tg lesstm it With a Trial
of Forty-elftht
Wasiiimiton, July 4. Two stars
were added to the national Hag today,
denoting the addition of Arizona and
New Mexico to the sisterhood of states.
It has been some time since the two
territories became states, but under
tho law the change In the flag could
not be made until today, wldob is the
independence day next following their
admission to statehood. The law gov
erning the subject is contained in the
act of congress approved April 4, 1818.
That act provides as follows:
"On the admission of a new state
Into the union, one star shall be added
to the union of the flag and such ad
dition shall take effect on tbe fourth
day of July then next succeeding such
admission."
Tliis Is tho first time since IKK) that
more than one star has been milled nt
a time. In that year stars were added
for tbe Ave new states of Idaho, Wash
ington, Montana aud North and South
Dakota.
Since July I, 1 81m;, the otllcial ar
rangement of the stars iu the field of
the Hag has beeu such as to permit
tliu addition of more star without
destroying tho symmetry of the ap
proved design, Iu none of tho nets of
congress relating to thu Hag lias the
manner of arranging the stars been
prescribed. Before the date named
there was a lack of uniformity in the
matter After July I, 180U, when Utah
was admitted to the union, the forty
five stars in the Hag were arranged in
six rows, the first, third and fifth rows
having eight stars each, and the second,
fourth aud sixth rows, seven stars
each.
Four years ago a rearrangement of
the stars was made by a joint board o
army and uavy otllcers to meet the
case of Oklahoma. Under the arrange
ment, which has prevailed until today,
there wero eight stars iu the first,
third, fourth and sixth rows and seven
stars lu the second and fifth rows
The rearrangement to moet thecaie of
Arizona and New Mexico was a very
simple matter. All that was necessary
was tho addition of a star each to the
second and llfth rows, .which makes
six rows of eight stars each. Since
tho admission ot any of the territorial
possessions to statehood Is a 'matter ot
tbe distant future the present arrange
ment of the stars in the national Hag
is likely to remain unchanged for a
long time to come.
