JACKSON, Miss, Aug. l
(ArA-Democratic voters will
wade through segregation,

dates in first primary balloting
for governor.

will choose from a field made

son. District Attorney Charles
Sullivan of Clarksdale and Rob-
ert Mason. a Magee welder.
The two high candidates will
enter a runoff August rs to de-
terInine the Governor for the
four years beginning January
i19. There is no Republican can
didate in this Deep South State
and the general election is a
mere formality.
Other State, legislative and
county Offices also will be filled
in the primaries.
Prohibition Key Issue
The gubernatorial issues in
cluGe how to retain segregation,
whether to keep Statewide pro-
hibition in the Nations last dry
State. and State party relation
ships with the National Demo-
cratic party.
Mr.. Gartin. a 45-year old
former mayor of Laurel, has
campaigned largely on his
experience, gained during eight
years as lieutenant governor.
He has stressed the industrial
progress during this time and
the fact that Mississippi is the
only State which has main
tanned a perfect segregation
record.
Mr.. Gartin has the backing
of Gov. J. P. Coleman and
former Gov. Hugh White, al
though neither has stumped
for him.
Gov. Coleman, honoring the
custom which forbids outgoing
Governors to take' part in
gubernatorial campaigning, can
not succeed himself. He is
running for the State House of
Representatives from Choctaw
County, where he practices law
at Alderman and farms.
Mr.. Barnett is making his
third race for Governor after
being an also-ran against Mr..
White in 1851 and Gov. Cole
man in 1855. He finished a
strong fourth in his last effort.
He is a 61-year-old lawyer
who has made reputation in
damage suit and criminal cases.
He has campaigned on claims
that he is best able to spur
lndustrialization and retain
segregation. He charges Gov.
Coleman is racial moderate
and would dictate to Mr..

Convention TicketRow
Is Bothering Democrats

Mr.. Pauley has appealed to
Democratic Gov. Edmund q.
(Pat) Brown to help straighten
out matters. Gov. Brown said
on a visit here he is keeping
hands off unless some move
develops to take the convention
away from Los Angeles. Mr..
Butler has said he knows of no
such plan.
Interested Democrats in Con-
gress view the promise to Mr..
Pauley with a disappearing eye.
Senator Kennedy, Democrat
of Massachusetts,, an obvious
contender for the party's pres
idential nomination. said he
protested against the deal be-
fore it was made. He said 5000
tickets is too many for any
group to control.
Packing" Plan Discounted
While there have been reports
that Mr.. Pauley might like to
pack the convention with sup
porters of Senator Symington
Democrat of Missouri, Ken
nedy's friends don't think that
is necessarily true.
They believe that Mr.. Pauley,
an old friend of former Presi-
dent Truman. is more interest
ed in riding a winner than in
backing any particular indi-
vidual in the presidential con-
test.
Senator Monroney Democrat
of Oklahoma who has been an
ardent supporter of Adlai Ste
venson in the past, said in a
separate interview he thinks
5000 tickets is too high a price
to pay for raising $350,000.
That's a higher interest rate
than the Republicans charge, A"
he said. "The party is not going
to stand still for anyone's hav-
ing a monopoly on tickets"

The Democratic National
Committee is worriedly irving
to get out Of a ticket commit
ment that has caused an up
roar over its 1860 presidential
nominating convention plans.
National Chairman Paul M
Butler and his aides are under
stood to be casting about for a
new set of financial angels to
underwrite the S350,000 pledged
to, the party for locating It's
convention in Los Angeles.
Gilman Edwin w. Pauley as
sumed responsibility for raising
that amount. and in return he
has been demanding 5000 con-
vention ticket for the host CON-
mittee which he heads.
After Mr.. Pauley was prom
ised that many at each conven-
ton session, national party Of
ficialS suddenly realized that
would leave only about 10000
seats for delegates. alternates,
party bigwigs and workers.
Mr.. Pauley has been offered
$500 tickets but hasn't given
anv SIGN he will settle for that
number.
Promise Questioned
The feeling in party head
quarters here seems to be that
the promise to Mr.. Pauley won't
be binding if others can be
found who are willing to I'M
derwrite the raising of the
convention fund.

Part Of Maryland
Film Censorship
Law Held Void

BALTIMORE, July 81 (AP)
Only those portions of Mary
lands movie censorship law af-
fected by a Supreme Court de-
cision are unconstitutional, not
the entire act, Attorney Cen
eral C. Ferdinand Sybert said
yesterday.
"The power to declare an act
unconstitutional is a judicial
one" Mr.. Sybert said. 1--WE
believe it would be contrary to
the theory of our Government
for us to take it upon ourselves
as members of the executive
branch of the State government
to declare a statute or parts OF
a statute unconstitutional"
Mr.. Sybert wrote the opinion
in answer to a request from the
State Board of Motion Picture
CensorS for a ruling on whether
the entire act was unconsti-
tutional.
The Supreme Court, in q
June 20 ruling, threw out g
section of New York law under
which that State had banned
showing of Lady Chatterley'S
Lover"
That section, prohibiting
presentation of sexual i'm
morality as acceptable or de-
sirable, is worded the same al
the Maryland law.
