In Court House.
Declared He
Spoken*
■
Several hundred people gathered
at the court house in Asheboro Sat
urday aftftfnodri to hear Hon. Harold
D. Cooley, Candidate for congress
from Nash, speak to the voters of
Randolph. Mr. Cooley was intro
duced to the assemblage by J. P.
Garner, of Asheboro.
The speech was started with a
compliment to the long and splendid
record of the late Congressman Ed
ward Pou, whose seat Mr. Cooley
would fill in congress as a represen
tative from the fourth district. The
speaker expressed himself as being
thoroughly in accord with the pre
sent administration''and pleased with
the New Deal headed by President
Roosevelt and delighted that the
government is again restored to the
people.
Mr. Cooley stated that he did not
ride upon any political machine nor
was he under the control of any
person nor corporation therefore he
only asked the people to scrutinize
the records of alb the candidates and
select the best qualified man to
carry the spotless banner of Demo
cracy through the campaign of Nov
ember to victory. He further stat
ed that he was not seeking a fee
simple deed to the office nor did he
desire it as an heir apparent, nor
did he choose to buy the seat, ex
plaining that kings, princes, nor
crown princes had no place in the
ranks of Democracy.
The speaker claimed to have done
more work, traveled more miles and
made more speeches for the Demo
cratic party than all of the other
candidates put together. He closed
his brief but strong speech with a
bid for votes in the primary, and
pledged to return from Congress
with clean hands and a pure heart
in return for the trust of his com
stitueftts.
SAYS NRA HASTENING
END OF CHILD LABOR
Des Moines, Iowa.—“The complete
abolition of child labor is nearer
t.hnn ever as a result of the Nation
al Recovery Administration,” Miss
Ruth Scandrett, of the national in
dustrial division of the Federal
Children’s Bureau, told members of
the National Congress of Parents
and Teachers in session here. She
warned that, while the Nation heart
ily approves the work of abolishing
child labor as begun in the first
NRA code and all others subsequent
ly, the subject is of such vital im
portance as to warrant approval of
the amendment to the Federal Con
stitution, to make perpetual the ac
complishment of the past few months
under the President’s Recovery Pro
gram.

Questions Concerning Voting In The
Primary Answered By Mr. Cranford
E. H. Cranford, chairman of the
Randolph county board of elections,
in a letter published herewith sets
at rest some of the rumors and
uncertainty as to the right «f elec
tors of the two major parties to vote
in the primary. During the primary
campaign there has been some un
certainty as to whether Republicans
might participate in the Democratic
primary by voting for one or more
candidates for office, and also vote
for members of their own party for
other offices. Mr. Cranford states
that, under the law, this cannot be
done; that a Republican, if he votes
in the primary, must vote for Re
publican nominees only, and Demo
crats for Democratic nominees only.
His letter clarifying this and oth
er points follows:
Answers To Questions On
Primary.
From the numerous inquiries which
come to me almost daily with respect
to the right of Republican and In
dependent electors to vote in the
primary election, it appears that
there is still considerable misunder
standing about this subject, so I will
attempt to answer some of the more
important of these questions.
Can a voter, registered as an In
dependent, legally vote in a Demo
cratic or Republican primary? Answ
er, No. When one registers-as an
Independent he thereby states that
he is not a member of, or affiliated
with, either of the two political par
ties holding primaries in the state
this year. So long as he remains an
Independent, he is not a member of
either party and, therefore, the law
confers upon him no right to par
ticipate in the selection of the nomi
nees of either the Democratic or Re
publican parties. In the General
Election an Independent voter, of
course, can vote any way he so de
sires, but he cannot vote in a pri
mary election.
Can a voter, registered as a Re
publican, legally vote part or all
of the Democratic primary ticket in
a primary election? Answer, No.
When one is registered as a Re

revival meeting
IS WELL ATTENDED
The revival meeting which is now
in progress in a tent located on
Dixon street in west Asheboro is be
ing well attended. The meeting is
conducted by Rev. W. S» Smith, of
Greensboro. Mr. Smith announces
his subjects for Friday evening,
“How to Be Saved;” Saturday even
ing, "The Signs of the Times;" Sun
day evening, ‘The Question God
Himself Can’t Answer.” The
are
publican and declares that he is a
Republican at the time he goes to
vote in the primary, he should be
given only a Republican ballot, if
the Republicans have a ballot in that
primary, and if there is no Republi
can ballot in that primary, then he
should not be allowed to vote, in
such primary. He has no right to
be given the Democratic primary
ballot. One cannot legally vote in
the primary part of the Republican
ticket and part of the Democratic
ticket. Likewise a Democratic voter
is not entitled to vote for any of
the Republican candidates in the
primary. In the primary the voter
is assisting in the selection of the
nominees of the party with which
he is affiliated in good faith.
May a voter legally vote as a Demo
crat in the primary and as a Repub
lican in the following general elec
tion? A person may change in his
party affiliation and ask that the
change be entered on the registra
tion book. However, a voter who
votes with one party in the primary
and with another party in the gen
eral election may have his vote chal
lenged on the ground that he does
not affiliate with the political party
in whose primary he proposes to
vote and is not in good faith a mem
ber thereof, meaning that he does
not in good faith intend to support
the nominees of such party in the
general election, and it would be the
duty of the registrar artd judges of
election of the precinct to hear and
decide the challenge.
Are markers allowed in primary
elections ? Answer, No. A voter may
be accompanied into the election
booth and assisted by any member
of 'his family, or by any election of
ficial upon his own request, or by
any other person requested by him.
The law no longer requires the ap
proval of the election officials, and a
voter may call upon any one he
wishes to assist him.
