a Stab at Primary
Measures Would Rob Voters of Power
and Make Party Machines Stronger

DEFERENDUM Measures II and Is, which will ap-
IN pear the ballot at the general election next
Tuesday. should be defeated They in small part
good In large part, very bad.
Referendum Ia provides
/. For a new registration of all the voters in the
state.
2. For classification of all the voters on the regis
traton books according to political parties; the voter
registering. being required to state which political
party he prefers and If he refuses that fact is TO be
listed opposite his name
3. For barring from the primary elections all voters
who refuse to state their political faith when they
register.
4. For permitting voters to vote in the primaries
only the tickets of the parties for which they
registered. Thus if the voter registers 'repub-
can" he cannot get democratic party ballot in the
primaries.
5. Newly registered voters must be able to read
and speak the English language or to prove that they
unable TO do so by of physical incapacity
The last provision Is one Of the few good in
the entire BILL The rest is blow at the primary
This bill was framed to tie the hands of the voters
to make difficult for them to control their
elections.
Referendum ID contains provisions for the election
Of county precinct committeeman and for holding
county and state conventions Some of these pro-
visions may be good
But there is a cleverly-worded feature that makes
the bill menace
files for office in elections where political parties
contesting, he must sign statement to the effect
that if elected he will support in full the state plat
form of the party Thus if he is sent to the egsla-
ture republican, he must be bound by the state
platform interpreted by the party machine, even
tho that platform may contain propositions which
the legislator knows to be vicious.
Referendum Ia would tie the hands of the voter;
would strike a telling blow at the direct primary.
Referendum Is would tie the hands of the pro-
gressive candidate who might be elected and make
him powerless.
Taken together the measures are a stab at the
heart of the primary system They rob the voters of
of their present rights and give nothing in
return. They make machine rule more ironb0und
than at present.
Both bills dangerous They should be defeated!
Vote "No" both.
