Sex Crime Bill Vetoed
By Battle Because Il
Drops Death Penalty
By the Associcted press

RICHMOND, Va, April 9.-Gov.
Battle has vetoed a General As
Sembly bill that was aimed at
curbing dangerous sex offenders.
He said a study of the measure
convinced him it would uninten-
tionally have repealed the death
penalty for rape.
The bill was one Of seven As
sembiy-approved measures on
which the Governor yesterday ex-
ercised the pocket Veto" He did
this by failing to sign the bills
on the last day possible.
Among the bills which Gov.
Battle did sign was the $7O0 mil
lion general appropriations bill for
1952-1954. And that wound up
action on the 1913 bills left by the
March 20 session of the Assembly.
The sex bill provided that per-
sons judged to be dangerous sex
offenders must be committed to a
State mental hospital and kept
there so long as they are con-
Sidered to be dangerous.
The Governor also vetoed bills
which would have:
Legalized games of chance in
amusement parks where prizes
were fruit or novelties. Gov. Bat
tie said he was told "the opera
ton comes within the definition
of a lottery, which is prohibited
by the Constitution.
Provided that an officer should
indicate the street and number
when a process in civil actions is
served in a city. Gov. Battle
noted that accurate streets and
numbers are not readily ascer-
tainable in some portions of our
cities" and said "the bill might
prove harmful"
Provided for the destruction of
certain warrants in cities in the
275,000 population bracket after
being kept three years. Gov.
Battle noted no Virginia city
has such population.
Called for the issuance of pocket
Identification cards to all State
officials to whom the Secretary
Of the Commonwealth issues cer-
tiflcateS of appointment or elec-
tion. Gov. Battle said this would
have meant extra work at an
unjustiflable expense.

ernor let die were duplicates of

Appeals Court
Bars Write-ins
For Maryland
Eisenhower Buckers
Lose Ballot Move
In May Primary
Rv the Associoted praxs

ANNAPOLIS, April 9.-Mary-
land voters won't be permitted a
write-in ballot in the May S pri-
mary election. That's final.
Last week Baltimore Judge,
ruling on suits filed by supporters
of Gen. Eisenhower, said Write-inS
would be permitted.
But late yesterday the Court Of
AppealS-the States highest -
said in a split decision that there
exists under the present election
laws of Maryland no right to
write in names at the primary
election"
Two Democratic Choices.
This means that in the presi-
dental balloting, the Democrats
will have two choices-Senator
Kefauver. Democrat, of Tennes-
see, or an "uninStructed delega-
tion" to the State convention that
selects the 18 national convention
delegates.
The Republicans will have no
opportunity to express their views.
No G. o. P. presidential aspirants
entered the State primary. All
"a delegates to the Republican
national convention are expected
to back Gov. McKeldin as a ia
vorite SON candidate.
Circuit Judge Emory H. Niles
created a mild furore among elec-
ton supervisors when he upheld
the petitions to permit write-ins.
They would have had to revamp
the voting machinery and make
quick provisions as to how the
Write-ins would be handled.
Suits Filed by Four.
The suits were filed by Repub-
licans Royden A. Blunt, running
for the Senate nomination, and
Temus R. (Tim) Bright, candidate
for the Fourth Congressional nom
ination, and two individuals, At
torney Hyman A. Pressman and
Webster c. Tall.
Mr.. Blunt and Mr.. Bright are
campaigning under Eisenhower
colorS.
Mr.. Pressman told the court the
nature of the election laws in
dicated that the Legislators in
tended to permit write-ins.
But Attorney General Hall
Hammond said that inconsist-
encies in the law add up to an
absurdity if you say the Legis-
lature intended the write-in
privilege" He referred to the
section automatically nominating
unopposed candidates as one of
the inconsistencies.
When No Opponents Are Listed.
Mr.. PreSsman conceded that
write-ins would not interfere with
candidates who had no primary
opponents when the filing dead
line passed. This is the situation
in the 1st Eastern Shore district,
where Republican Representative
Miller and Democrat Dudley G.
Roe are unopposed.
But the Baltimore attorney
added that Republicans should be
permitted to write in their choice
for President. even though no
candidates had entered. Their
show of sentiment. he said, would
be advisory to the convention"
THAT doesn't amount to any,
thing more than the Gallup poll,
does it?" asked one judge.
Comparing Maryland's election
laws with those of Minnesota,
where Gen. Eisenhower rolled up
a sensational write-in vote, Mr..
Hammond said the Midwest State
had provided for such vote under
a recent law. And Maryland's
laws deny that sort of vote, he
added.
The fve-man Court of Appeals
split on the question. Just how
will not be known until it's formal
opinion is handed down next
month

StOcknen Meet
At LeWistOWn

NEARLY 100 Central Montana
stockmen met with officials of the
Montana Stockgrowers association at
Lewistown on Nov. %. Problems of
the industry were discussed by state
and college officials and specialists,
as major portion of the program.
At an evening banquet following the
afternoon meeting, Rep. Wesley A.
D'Ewart, Wilsall, was the featured
speaker.
Montana Stockgrowers president,
G. r. Milburn, Grass Range, was in
charge of the meeting. This is the
third year that so-called "grassroots"
or district meetings of the state or
ganization have been held. They are
scheduled so that stockmen who are
unable to attend statewide meetings
some distance from home. may enjoy
all the advantages of the sponsoring
organization.
In the Central Montana meeting,
DR.. H. f. wilkins, chief veterinarian,
Montana Livestock Sanitary board,
discussed disease control. Ralph
Miracle, secretary, Montana Live
stock commission, told of efforts be-
ing made by the Commission to con-
troll rustling of stock and how all
stockmen might help.
Fred Wilson, head, animal in
dustry department, Montana State
College, gave brief resume of beef
cattle research now being carried on
or completed, and DR.. o. o. Thomas
of the same department at Montana
State college gave an up-to-date re-
view of the current research work
on PHOSPHORUS, vitannin A and pro-
tein requirements for range beef
cattle.

HEARING ON BEET WAGE
RATES SET FOR DEC. Is

A PUBLIC HEARING on wage
rates for the 1858 crop of sugar beets
will be held in Billings Dec. 5 at
10 a. m. in the Commercial club
lobby. The hearing will be one of
five scheduled by the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture in major pro-
ducing regions of the sugar beet
area.
One of the conditions which pro-
ducers must meet to qualify for
payments under the Sugar act of
1948 is to pay wage rates not less
than those determined to be fair
and reasonable by the secretary of
agriculture after public hearings
and investigations. The department
requests that all interested persons
appear at the hearings to express
their views and present information
in regard to wages and prices.

sad to see the kind of life he's
had; there's twenty rooms in
which to roam but nowhere do
you feel at home; the place is all
so slick and neat you can't relax
in stocking feet, and if you should
lie down and snore or drop your
ashes on the floor, a maid or
butler bustles in and makes you
feel like it's sin.
But silliest of all, to me, is
how the meals are run, by gee;
for one thing, they amt served on
time, you never hear the supper
chime til eight o'clock and you
amt fed until it's durn near time
for bed. Then when you're
hungry as a horse you wait
long time tween each course; a
lot of extra tools confuse you
bout which one you're s'posed to
use; the butler brings you all
your stuff and serves you only
half enough. I'm sure that if we
had to stay at Joe's place for
another day, I never could last
out the wait It'll we collect on his
estate.

That referendum will take place

to grant permits for tracks. The
Kennel Club has applied for its

proved the stockholders are not

Following that the track own
