dead letter.
Once praised as a great reform that would
let the rank and file have a say OH presiden-
tial candidates instead of the party boss
es, the direct primary is sidetracked. Not
half a dozen genuine presidential primary
fights are in sight in both parties.
In Wisconsin, voters get a choice between
Dewey and Vandenberg; in Illinois, Dewey is
all alone and there's Garner and a vague Roose-
welt entry; New York, Dewey and Gannett;
and New Jersey and Ohio may have a choice.
That's about all.

Voters Have Choice
In Only Is States

No state gives it's voters a primary ballot
with the names of all candidates. In Illinois,
Democrats may pick Roosevelt or Garner, but
what if they like. McNutt or Hull? That's too
bad. But even that choice is more than most
states get.
The direct presidential primary started
in 1910 in Oregon. Twenty-Five states adopt
ed it within four years. Many have since
repealed their laws, and today there are
presidential primaries in only Is states.
Abuses of the old convention system brought
the direct primary as a reform. 1t is now plain
ly evolving into something else. But if there is
any move to reform the primary system as it
is at present, you won't hear of it until this
campaign is over.
