Kansas has introduced a bill preyid-
ing for a preference primary for the

be appointed by the postmaster gen.
eral and would serve for a term of
five years. Only after full hearing on
written charges could a postmaster
be removed and in such contin-
gency, the postmaster would not be
eligible for denomination
The bill provides that the nominal
ing election may be held at the time
of the county, state or municipal cleo
ton next preceding the expiration of
tie term of the postmaster. at the
discretion of the postmaster general.
