In all its essential features the Prlm-

election was held Is the same Primary
law that the direct legislation boosters
have been advocating for the past Ave
years. The theory Is that II you give
dhe voters a chance to express their
preferences they will nominate the best
men for the offices. The fact Is that
the average voter in this town Is too
busy with his personal affairs to bother
about nom mating men for office. He
is willing to delegate that task to his
party organization and considers his
duty done wnen he casts his vote.
Anyhow. why should the voter
worry? The city Of Greater New York
has been threatened with destruction

community has trembled on the brink
of passing into the hands OF looters
and disciples OF destruction. But always
