NATIONAL

PROPOSED

as a reason the fact that the nomina-
tons for president and vice-president
may be and actually have been deter
mined by the vote Of delegates from
states which cast practically no vote
for the party ticket and never elect tha
party electoral ticket. Senator Albert
B. Cunimins declared his intention Of
introducing in the senate a bill pro-
viding for the enactment Of nation
wide primary law.
Senator Cummins points to the diff
ficulty Of making any change in the
method Of procedure in national con-
ventions relative to the basis Of repre-
senation. and declares that if congress
does not act within a reasonable time
upon his national primary bill he will
propose law regulating national par
ty conventions, making the basis Of
representation the party vote instead
Of population.
At the recent republican state con-
vention a plank was adopted in favor
Of a national primary law and the
republicans Of the state are committed
to it.
