I liked the story better in 219, but I have to go with 231 based on the covers.

231, for reasons others have already expounded upon (more Legionnaires, less painful pink skies, etc.).

#219 for me. I just like The Emerald Empress' word balloon.

Why does Light Lass have a shoulder bag labeled "oxygen"?

Love them both. #231 for the win, though. I like the layout a bit better. I know I've praised Grell's Superboy in earlier contests. This is my first chance to get all excited about his Mon-El.

I never realized how similar these covers were.
I'll go with # 219. The pink sky and alien landscape is eye-catching. This issue also contains a cutaway diagram of a Legion cruiser, one of the bonus features that made reading the Legion so fun in those days.

In the previous round I would have voted for the Superboy's Legion cover. I liked the story in the other one better but that cover has some pretty ugly colours happening and I much prefer covers that hint at a story rather than posed pin-up ones like that one.
This round is hard because though I definitely think #231 is the superior cover in almost every way, my eyes just like #219 better.
So #219 for me.
