Ferris Veto

LANSING. Mich. May 21.-(Spe-
ciaD-Gov. Ferris this morning We
toed the Nank primary bill and sent
message TO the speaker of the
house in which he vigorously criti.
cised the measure. This bill was
the cause OF the legislature deciding
TO return 10 Lansing next Tuesday
10 pass II over the governors veto
if such action was necessary.
The governor, who had until Mon
day afternoon to pass on the bill, IN
his veto message attacked the mea-
sure on the ground that il violated
secrecy of the ballot by providing
for separate party ballots at primary
elections, and declared that the pro.
visions requiring total OF five per
cent of the votes cast by party as
a necessity for nomination would
work hardship on minority party
candidates.
The bill, the governor claims.
really restores what he termed the
obnoxious enrolment feature, as the
election inspector must enter the
name of the voter on his list at the
party ballot requested.
This bill is reactionary and un-
just. II condemns political freedom
and puts a premium on cowardice
and party despotism. As already
stated, this bill cures no existing
evils. On the contrary it re.estab-
fishes evils that Michigan citizens
long have tried TO cure"
The governor also says that the
Republican legislature of 1913 rec
ognized the fundamental rights of
