CONVENTIONS NOT ENDED
BY DIRECT PRIMARY LAW
Attorney Loueks Declares Dual sys-
tenn Is Contemplated by Proposed
Constitutional Amendment,
Which He Favors

Attorney Robert G.. Loucks takes is
sue with some of the politicians who be-
lieve that the days of conventions are
about over, because of the proposed
direct primary law. Here Is Mr..
Loucks' statement:
''It is enormously stated that political
conventions are of the past. 1t is not
so, and never can be SO long as demo-
cratic institutions survive.
Conventions in one form or other
must necessarily be held in order that
citizens may assemble and freely ex-
press and exchange views for their en-
lightenment and mutual welfare.
'Tle government of city, state and
nation Is controlled and represented by
political agencies called parties. These
parties represent certain defined poll
cies and principles of government for
both small and large districts.
Therefore, in order to get the ma
jority opinion of political parties as to
platform and nominees, and for prepa-
ration of same for submission for APP
prevail to the voters at large on cleo
ton day, 1t is essentially patriotic and
democratic that an opportunity should
be given all parties or agencies the
right to assemble and freely discuss
political subjects. Indeed. unity of
action and organization can be per-
fected only by means of conventions.
regardless of whatever name or legal
form.
'The citizen must not shirk his po-
litical duties and no primary law will
cure his laziness.

vention discussion cannot win against
the railroad crew, then what chance
would they stand singly, alone. unor-
ganized, in the dark, as against the
uni fod of Cot mi To5 " 2
MOI Convention days are not over!
Neither does the proposed constitu-
tiona1 amendment necessarily make it
so. Section az of article II reads:
The legislature shall have power
to enact laws relative to the election Of
delegates to conventions of political
parties; and the legislature shall enact
laws providing for the direct nominal
ton of candidates for public office, by
electors. political parties or organiza-
tons of electors without conventions,
at elections to be known and designated
as primary elections; etc.
Il. From the first clause it seems
clear, then, that the convention is not
to be abolished.
plated by the above constitutional
amendment, to wit. both convention
and direct primary plans.
49, What kind of direct primary
law Uncle Herrin will give us remains
to be seen. If his favorites are elected
he can apply sulphur tothis as to other
laws.
'fvote for the amendment. It is good
Both parties now pretend to favor a
new primary law, therefore the issue is
now as to its substance. If any new
primary law is passed under Republican
rule 1t will first be o. KID by our
uncle, and will be as complex and work
hardships, the same as do other cleo
ton laws.

law-one that can be used for the OBJ
jects intended-and this is the only
way we can get it,

after the dance out on the beach,
knocked her half unconscious and while
she was In that state committed a fe-

the plea that If she said anything about
his conduct both she and her mother
would be arrested and sent To jail. lie

got to Los Angeles, but after keeping
her in a room here several days he had
