URGE CHECK ON
PRIMARIES
by International

Noted professors and other wit
nesses appearing before the Nye
committee take issue with the
Supreme Courts ruling that Con.
gress cannot pass a corrupt prac-
tices act covering primary elec-
tionS.
This issue should again be
placed before the high court, in
the opinion of Prof. Charles A.
Beard, noted historian, who holds
that the 5-to-4 decision in the
Newberry case does not prevent
Congress from legislating with
regard to primaries.
In this he.is joined by Albert
S. Bard, New York lawyer, who
for the past 20 years has been
working on the matter of elec-
tion laws with honest ballot asso-
Citations.
Almost every witness who has
appeared before the Nye COM
mittee, which is conducting the
hearings with a view to framing
new pure election act" has
taken the same position, despite
the Supreme Courts ruling.
