Primaries now are held as purely i party affairs. Senator Baskin, of Lee, chair man of the state Democratic party, introduced an investiga tory resolution in the state sen-, ate this week. It calls for appointment of a nine-member committee “to study the advisability” of enacting laws to govern primaries and further regulate 'general elections. The legislature repealed all laws governing primaries in 1944. None nas been enacted since then, although several bills of this kind have been introduced in the as sembly. The proposed committee would have three senators, three repre sentatives and three members ap pointed by the governor. It would | be directed to report during the first week of the 1950 legislative session. The primary laws were repeal ed in an attempt to let the state Democratic party continue its pol icy of barring negroes from prim ary voting and party membership. Recent federal court decisions, however, have directed the party to let negroes vote in the party ,| primaries and to give them full membership rrivileges if they are otherwise qualified. - Revival Services Bethesda Church ‘#4 • j lQt~i I wl is _ P \ / I ■7• .
