OPPOSE THE PLURALITY PRIMARY.
Five County Districts in Georgia Condemn the
State Committee Order.
(By The Associated Press.

Jackson, Miss Mac 1.-THE Demo-
cratic Executive Committee of Adams
county this afternoon refused to make
provision for the plurality primary order
ed by the State Executive Committee to
select delegates to the Kansas City con-
vention and select a political electoral
ticket. This is the fifty county district
in the State to condemn the State Com
mittee's order and it now begins to look
as though the State will not be repre-
sented at the National convention unless
the chairman Of the State Committee
calls another meeting to provide con-
vention as he is being urged to do. Prom
inent party leaders threaten that if the
primary plan is carried out they will con-
test the delegation at Kansas City on the
ground that the method of selection is
volative of the State primary election law
which provides that the selection OF dele
gates to national convention must be by
party convention. A spirited agitation on
the subject has been in progress through
out the State for the past two weeks and
several members of the State Committee
who Were not present at the meeting, held
on the Both of April when the plurality
of the primary was ordered, have re-
pudiated the action taken.
