posal, these sources said, that neutral

Such a type of government, &C
cording to Mr.. Remy, is the cause
of low-grade leadership and is not
representative government.
Election to most people is a time
when they vote for one or two sets
of candidates, the majority of whom
are selected for them by party
bosses. 1t would be better to vote
at the lower left hand side of the
ballot and work up than to vote
from the top down." he said.
when elected, candidates owe
election not to the people, but to
party bosses, and in order to pay
their political debts, they permit
the bosses to fill Offices with men
whose only recommendation is 10y
atty to the machine" he continued.
Duties of officers to be elected in
primary were outlined by Mrs. Leo
M. Gardner. She placed emphasis
upon the Importance of voting,
which she said is a citizens one
contact with political party. ut
is the only time the average citizen
gets to vote for party official"
Mrs. Gardner explained.
Permanent registration of voters
and two bills to improve the pri-
nary, all originated by the League
and piloted through the legislature,
were discussed by Mrs. Virginia
Mannon in her talk on Leagues

The registration law has been the
subject of the League bills for the
last four sessions of the assembly,

amended in 1885, Mrs. Mannon re-
ported. One bill requires that can
didates have petitions signed and
the second does away with spurious
