The School Onestion in Mnrray !
The matter of be'ter school facil-'
ities in Murray and its vicinity is
one whrh is causing much thought
at this time. There are abouty twenty
row who wish tj attend high school
nd as the fee i S3 per student this
will mk" some ?C0 per week or
i'2-4: per mouth and would figure
:ir ?2.ttG0 for the year. This not
our.ting the fact that the students ;
have to go elsewhere to stay to '
hoard and bo away from their homes. '
Tt. is thought thr.t probably a high
.-ihool comprising the Murray dis
trict and three cither adjacent misrht
h." a solution to the vexed question. '
The ppenses would care for the con-
Struct ion of an added necesary build-
ir.g r;id provide the teachers while,

OPPOSE CHANGE
EN PRIMARY LAW
League of Women Voters Ure De
feat of Hou:e Boll 62, Act
Amending; Primary Law.
Defeat of house roll C2, the act
passed by the J521 legislature
emending the state primary law, is
urged in a statement filed by the
League of Women Voters for Ne
braska in the secretary of state's of
oe. which will be printed at the ex-pem-o
of that organization as one
page in the reference pamphlet mail
ed out to 323. 000 voters.
The argument is signed by the
folhiwing officers of the league: Mrs..
C. G. Ryan, Grand Island, president;
Mrs. E. M. Barkley Lincoln. chair
man special toinaiittw on direct pri
mary; Mrs. C. II. Dietrich, Hastings,
regional director; Miss M. Gund,
secretary.
The League's Argrument
.After quoting from an utterance
by Charles E. Hughes defending the
primary principles, the wemitn's pro
nouncement says:
"Women voter are opposed to this
att-.-mpt to cripple the primary be-'iiu.-.e
voting will Lc-OTe a meaning
less ceremony if the control of the
parties pases from the voters to the
parp' bosses.
"The Nebraska League of Women
Voters heartily endorse.; the position
of ike nntiorsl league, which opposes
any attempt to repeal state primary
laws and supports all efforts to make
nomination more representative of
:u?S;.os of the people.
"The outstanding features of this
bill, house roll No. 62, are:
"1, It abolishes the direct election
by voters of the delegates to their
county party conventions and re
stores the old caucus system.
"2. It abolishes the direct election
by the voters of the national com
mitteeman of each party and places
that power in the hands of the state
party conventions.
"3. It abolishes the direct election
by voters of the delegates to the na
tional party conventions which nom
inate the candidates for president
and vice president, and places that
power in the hands of the state par
ty conventions.
"4. It opens the way to the en
i ir-"r.ion: by the state party con
ventions of candidates in the pri
::uiries by providing that the state
party conventions shall be held be
ioiv the primpries and by repealing
that part cf the primary law which
prohibits the endorsement or con
demnation of candidates by the party
co-ivc- ntions.
"5. It deprives the women of Ne
braska of tiie legal right while they
now have cf equal representation
with, meu in party organfzation.
"Vote- 'no' on house roll No. 62."
