FORMER STUDENTS OF ST. BEKCHMAN'S ACADEMIC MEET TOGETHER AT SCHOOL THURSDAY
Amendment Concerning; ' Notional
"Committee Provides BoltlnB .
Member May Be Removed ..'
snd Vocney Filled.
CHICAGO, June 21-Perpstuatlon of the
"steam roller," so far as the republican
national committee Is concerned, and
recognition of the direct primary plan of
electing members of the committee, were
the two radical and apparently contra
dictory changes yesterday in the rules
governing the national committee by the
rules committee.
The Roosevelt members of the commit
tee did not oppose either. They will offer
a minority report to the convention, in
sisting on a reduction of southern repre
sentation In the convention and upon the
right of the various states to dictate the
method and manner in which their rep
resentatives on the national committee
shall be elected.
' In other respects the rules that gov
erned the republican convention of four
years ago Were adopted.
The "steam roller" amendment provides
that when any member) of the committee
bolts or rafusea to support the republican
nominee he shall be summarily deposed.
Tlio committee is empowered to name
his successor. , In the paxt the. successor
was dictated by the state committee of
tho state affected.
The rules committee, however, held that
this would give to a state the oppor
tunity to name to the vacancy a man
holding precisely the same views as the
member deposed. . .;. .
Hecojf ul Primary System.
Recognition of the primary system of
election of members of the committee was
contained - In an amendment providing
that "when state laws provide for thi
election of a national committeeman, such
election shall be considered a nomination
to be carried into effect by the delegation
from the state." :
Under this change a state electing Its
national committeeman by direct primary
vote wouMTUke from Iti convention dele
gation cntii-ely the right to name any
other nominee. . - -
The adoption of this amendment, how
over, was not accomplished until the pri
mary uygtcm had been severely criticised
Ih debate.
"I want to say that Arkansas has the
primary system," said II. L. Remmel of
Arkaniiin, "unci to it Is to be attributed
iia disgrace e bear by hiving as a rep
resentative, !n tne United States senate,
.he Honorable Jeff DjvIh. The law is a
dlugrace and some tlay we will wipe it
off our .statutu books." ' '
Governor Carroll of Iowa, said the only
d.fference between the old System In Iowa
and the new primary plan was that the
present leaders were . "more bossy
boHses," than their predecessors. Esra
Elliott of Colorado was equally vigorous
In his attack on the primary system, but
he found time to put In a good word ror
woman suffrage.
It was denied that the changes were
made either to prevent any further seri
ous obstruction in the national committee
or to throw a sop to the so called 'pro
gressive" states. ,.
hnamittM -Named Months A so.
The national committee realised that
It was' proceeding "with rules that were
no official." explained. D..J..,I.ake I
Connecticut "As a result It named a sub
committee of. three ' members, several
months, ago, to ; consider necessary
changes, long before the present contro
versy In the convention .was foreseen. '
"Therefore, the changes are v non
partisan." V '. . ' '
The rules' as ! adopted will ' govern the
presenf convention,- but . the change In
that section of the rules affecting the
national committee will not become'ef
fectlve until the new , committee Is
named. , . .
