North Caroliht to take an active interest in the May 27th primary. It is your privilege and duty to vote and to observe the precinct officials conducting this primary. The law places upon the State Board of Elections the duty to compel the observance by elections officers irt the counties of the re quirements of the elections laws.' As Chairman qf the State Board of Elections, I call urjpn the three hundred members of the County Boards of Elections and the six thousand precinct election officials in North Carolina to enter upon the discharge of their duties with determination to observe the let ter and spirit of the election laws, to the end that no just complaint can arise from the performance of their duties, and ta the further end that the integrity of the prim ary cannot be questioned. In the final analysis, responsibility for conducting fair and honest elec tions must rest squarely upon the shoulders of the election officials, because frauds in' an election can not occur to any great extent ex cept through the participation or connivance of election officials."
