SPECIAL STATE ELECTION
TO Be HELD OCTOBER 26.
ELEVEN PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS AND RE.
FFRENDUM MEASURES TO Be VOTED ON next TUESDAY
Direct Primary Form Of Ballot kenton Of Judges Term Rural Credit
Amendment to Present Tax System and Exemption Of Churches Used
for Social Purposes From Taxation Are Most Important Items

SACRAMENTO Oct. 10. = Eleven
and referendum measures are on the
ballot to be voted on at the special
state election, Tuesday, Oct. rs. Nine
of them are amendments proposed by
the legislature, and two are referen-
dums on acts of the legislature.
Interest in the election centers in
the first proposition on the ballot,
which is a referendum on the legisla-
tive act extending the direct primary
law to non-partisanship in the election
of governor The act amends the long
direct primary law in many minor de-
tails, but the central feature is that it
specifies that only candidates for Unit
ed States senator, congressman, party
committeeman, delegates to national
conventions and presidential electors
shall have party designations on the
ballot.
Ballot Change Planned
The second proposition on the ballot
is referendum on a related act of the
legislature, dealing with the form of
the ballot 1t cuts the length of the
ballot about half, and it supplements
the first proposition by emitting party
designations from all candidates for
purely state Offices.
Extension of the terms of superior
judges from six years to twelve years
is the effect of the third proposition.
1t leaves judges still subject to the
recall. The contention of it's friends
is that it will tend to remove judges
from the field of politics, since the long
term will leave them free from the ne
cessity of going into elections so fire.
quently, while the recall will keep them
responsive to the welfare of the peo-
pie.
No Opposition Here
Proposition four apparently has no
opponents. 1t provides that judges
appointed to fill unexpired terms shall
hold office to the first of January fol-
lowing the election at which a sue
cessor is chosen. The object of the
amendment is to correct the defect in
the present law, which makes such ap-
pointed terms end at election day, the
result of which has been that attor-
neys have occasionally been elected
for the "short term" by the process of
having few friends write in their
names.
Rural credit is the mooted subject
of the fifth proposition. The amend
ment authorizes the state to provide a
system of land colonization, develop
ing water and preparing the land for
