PRACTICALLY UNANIMOUS
SENATE RATE BILL VOTE

conventions should be on the same
day for the same reason.
The senators SET their minds on this.
Every effort possible was made 10 Sc
cure the elimination of this section.
Fetzer and Heinl of this district had
been unfriendly to the bill. Their votes
were absolutely needed 10 carry the
bill through the house, but II was use
less for them to hang back in the hope
of getting the secIiOn stricken out.
The senators calmly put it up to the
house IF you do not accept this re-
port now. the blame for failure 10 pass
a primary bill will he on YOU" they
said. I'VE do not intend to recede an
inch more The two local represen-

fy themselves for defeating the bill
on entirely selfish grounds. and they
accepted the inevitable.
