COUNTY PRIMARY
MAY BE DEFERRED
LATE DATE Is FAVORED
BY CHAIRMAN NICHOLS AND
SECRETARY DONNELL OF
CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
Prospects for an early Democratic
county primary election were some
what dimmed by a decision today by
Chairman A. l.. Nichols and Secre-
tary J. r. Donnell of the Faulkner
County Democratic Central Commit
tee that no call would be issued for a
meeting of the committee until De-
cember. The date of the primary
cannot, of course, be fixed until the
committee meets and with this meet
ing deferred until December it would
be practically impossible to hold the
election early in January, as has been
the case for the past several elections.
Chairman Nichols, who came in
from Union township today, and Sec
retary Donnell both expressed them
mary election. Since the date of the
state general election has been conso-
selves as being in favor of a late pri-
ldated with the federal election and
placed on the first Tuesday after the
first Monday in November, they say
there is no reason why the primary
election should not be deferred until
about September of next year. This
would give the month Of August for
the campaign, time when farmers
have a little leisure and when the
weather is generally most favorable
for travelling over the county and for
open-air meetings.
Secretary Donnell has been advised
by Chairman A. j. Walls that the
State Democratic Central Committee
will be called to meet in December
and will also probably modify the
regulation requiring county primaries
to be held on a uniform date with the
state primary. "Split" primaries
have been the vogue in majority OF
the counties and will probably con-
tinue to be, regardless of the action
of the state committee, although there
is some sentiment in favor of holding
both of the primaries together. At
anv rate, it was agreed by Chairman
Nichols and Secretary Donnell today
that the county committee meeting
would not be called unit after the
state committee has met.

FIRST DAYC586
EXCEEDS LAST sYFAR AZ
FOUR ROOMS OF CONWAY PUB
Lie SCHOOL FILLED TO
OVERLOOKING.
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Five hundred and eighty-six pupils
were enrolled in the Conway public
school on the first day of the present
session, according to Supt. J. P.
Womack. This exceeds the first days
enrolment of the preceding session
by AZ.
Four rooms, numbers 2, 3, and 6,
Supt. Womack states, are crowded be-
yond their capacity and some of the
pupils cannot be provided with desks.
Any new pupils entering these rooms
will have to be assigned to the special
room, he stated. In the higher grades
the enrolment is slightly less than
last year. The fact that no state aid
could be granted to the school this
year, thereby forcing it to charge tu-
ition to pupils from outside the dis
tricts, caused loss of about 35 or 40
high school pupils, Mr.. Womack
said.
The enrolment by rooms on the
first day was as follows:
Room l, 76; room 2, "a; room 3, Ga;
room 4, a; room 5, 48; room 6, 65;
room 7, 81; room 8, 81; room 9, 81;
room 10, 80; room II, 19; room IL,

year, 544.
