WOULD ABOLISH
DIRECT PRIMARY
By United Press.


Washington, April 2S. The cam
paign in numerous state legislatures
to abolish the direct primary sys-
tenn in favor of the old convention
plan apparently is not gathering
great support among congressman
generally.
Out of a score of congressman,
asked for their view on the COM
paratve merits of the two systems,
only two declared in favor of the
convention plan and both of these
refused to talk for publication. Both
have been numbered among the op-
ponents of the primary system from
the time it was suggested.
Nearly all the others while declar-
ing for the principle of the primary,
advocated some change in the par
ticular law in force in their home
state.
The argument of primary oppon-
ents that the primary has lowered
the standard of ability in Congress
was met with the reply from con
gressmen that the standard has not
been lowered and they pointed out
that since the advent of the primary
Congress has passed such measures
as the Federal Reserve Act, the
Parcel Post Act and Rural Credits
Law.
Here are some of the typical ex-
pressions:
Rep. Baer, N. D.: "The reaction
airy politician cannot control the pri-
mary elections and therefore he
wants To- get back to the old boss
ridden convention system"
Rep. Knuston, of Minnesota, new
Republican whip "The primary sys-
tenn is preferable to the old conven-
tion plan because it gives the aver
age voter a larger voice in the af-
fairs of his party
Rep. Gard Ohio: eve have had
the primary system in Ohio for
many years and I certainly hope we
shall keep it,
Those close to the president say
that he also favors the. primary sys-
tenn of nominations.

OIL LEASES.

You should have lease in the
Cement Oil Field, while the prices
are now within your reach. No mat
ter where your lease is located, as
the field develops, your lease will be
vance in price. Should they hit big
production, leases will sell for thou
sands of dollars per acre. Two or
three hundred barrel productions pay
handsome profits. Just put this
squarely up to your better judgment
From your knowledge of the Cement
field you see the necessity of such in
vestmcnts if you are to get ahead
Conservative men - and because
they are conservative-have made
huge profits on leases at Cement.
