ST. Paul, Aug. 11.-Resolutions au-
thorizing the president of the Repub-
lican league OF Minnesota to appoint
a committee OF five with full power to
urge the adoption by the next legis-
lature of amendments to the present
primary law were adopted at the con
vention of the league at the Saint
Paul hotel.
These amendments provide for the
election OF delegates to a state and
congressional convention by a direct
vote of the people, at the same time
county officers are nominated by pop
ular vote.
That representation In the conven'
tions be determined on the basis OF
representation In the legislature or
in some other equitable manner: that
such amendments be made to the pres.

it more responsive to the will OF the
people and that the committee urge

presidential preference primary law

Ing, who are not able, because of
physical or mental defects, TO do any
kind of work or TO work for regular
hours every day or whose employment
has to be selected to fit their particu-
lar type. These are generally classified
as subnormal persons. This does not
physicians know-that they
are insane or idiotic or unable to care
for themselves. They need some as
~sistance In caring for themselves SO
that they do not become an absolute
burden upon the people at large.
What greater work could be done
than to employ competent physicians
TO make a study of these subnormal
unfortunates and to establish factories
under competent medical supervision
where they could be put TO work suit
ed TO their needs. where their health
could be studied and improved and
they themselves restored TO the great
body polite as healthy men and wo-
