Coolidge and Johnson Men to Ask
Spillnian For Reverse Opinion ;

Lincoln, March IS. An appeal
will be taken to Attorney General
Spillman when he returns to his of
fice tomorrow aftef a week's absence
in Chicago, from the decision of his
assistant, Lee W. Basye, in whicl
Basye held that the names of candi
dates to the republican national con
vention must be placed in primary
ballots together, without regard for
grouping in Coolidge and Johnson
"slates." The decision was handed
down by Basye yesterday in reply to
a query from W. D. McIIugh, elec
tion commissioner of Douglas coun
ty. Frank Corrick, manager of the
Coolidge campaign; Frank Harrison,
manager for Hiram Johnson, and Dr.
T. W. Bass, secretary of the repub
lican state committee, were all up in.
arms over the decision today. With-'
out a clear distinction on the face of
the ballot to show which are the,
Coolidge delegates and which the
Johnson group, and with the further
necessity of rotating the names un
til Johnson men and Coolidge men
are all jumbled together, it would
be practically impossibe to elelct a j
s?t of delegates who would be pledg
ed for any single candidate for pres
ident, republican managers are protesting-
"I could not pick out the Coolidge
or Johnson slate myself if the names
were mixed," Dr. Bass declared to-
Jday.
Secretary of State Pool declared
this afternoon that he rather expect

the decision of his assistant when
he returns tomorrow. Pool pointed
