REJECT ELECTORAL PROJECT
uban Conservatives Claim Proposed
Law Is Too Radical
I Havana July 10 Tho Cuban con
stitutional convention yesterday re
jected the commissions project for
the electoral law by a vote of 13 to
12 The conservatives claimed that
the law as proposed was too radical
Inasmuch as it provided that there
ehould be no Interference with the
elections by the central government
and because tho last elections showed
It to be impossible to conduct eloctlons
honestly without some restraining
power They pointed out that tho
provinces and municipalities were as
yet unable to govern thmselves and
contended that a free hand regarding
elections would result In calamity to
tho country In the opinion of the con
servatives the first elections should
be conducted with all possible safe
guards equal at least to those provid
ed by tho military governor Rather
than accept tho commissions project
the committee said they would favor
holding the elections under the exist
ing law and leave to tho republic the
task of drawing up a suitable law
