Governor Gunter's suggestion
to correct the primary law so as
to make it effective will meet
with general approval. He wants
the law amended so that the voter
will be handed only one ballot at
the primary the ballot he asks
for, instead of handing him three
two to be returned unmarked to
the waste basket. " Governor
Gunter thinks he should declare
himself then and there that he
will support the candidate for
whom he votes. This would put
a stop to the members Of one
party nominating the weaker
candidates of the other party.
