Proposed New Constitution
Also Includes Woman
Suffrage Right
(Note.—This la the sixth of a
series of 12 articles enumerating
the changes proposed In North
Carolina's basic law by the con
stitutional commission. It deals
with alterations in Article VI on
suffrage and eligihllty to office.)
Raleigh. Dec. 5. (API -The absen
tee ballot would be written into the
North Carolina Constitution and it
would be more rigidly restricted than
it is now by legislative law. under
i Article VI on suffrage and eligibility
to office in the proposed revisal of the
State’s basic law.
Also woman suffrage would be writ-'
ten into the State's Constitution. It is
i not in the present document. North
Carolina women voe by virtue of tho
i fact equai suffrage is in th e consti
, - tution of the United States. This
amendment was never ratified by
North Carolina
Under the new Constitution, as pro
posed by the constitutional commis
sion, the absentee ballot’ would be
lilted to persons "physically dis
abled or absent from home in the ser
vices of the State or the United
State?'' as provided by the general us
l sembly "under properly restrictive re
gulations. ’
AH most anyone away from home
on balloting day now can vote ab
sentee.
As for suffrage, the present con
stitution says: "Who may vote. Every
male person ....etc."
The proposed new section starts
off:
1 ‘‘Who-may vote. Ex'ery person ....
etc.”
, The absentee ballot proposal i.s tho
major alteration in this article, but
* many obsolete sections ha\*e,becn eli
minated.
The constitution commission's *1 rr-ft
has only six section-; m Article Vi

those whose names have been men
tioned as passible candidates and one
who would have an excellent chance
of winning the nomination. But his
friends here regard the formation of
this Reynolds organization with the
avowed intent to "put over" the can
didacies of Warlick for governor ami
John Bright Hill for lieutenant gov
ernor as decidedly detrimental to the
candidacies of both. For the prevail
ing opinion here is that the Demo
crats of North Carolina are tired of
being dictated to by political “ma
chines". either actual or theoretical,
and that they will revolt against any
Reynolds "machine” just as they re
volted against the purported Simmons
and Morrison “machines."
“The line of thought followed by
those undertaking to set up this Rey
’nolds organization seems to be that
on the basis of the large vote Rey
nolds received both in the primary
and the rlection, together with th~
Federal patrpnage he wjll be able to
distribute as senator, that a strong
organization can be built up in North
Carolina.” one commentator with
fcyw espeiience 4n Democratic po
litics in the State said today. But
toast history of movements of this
kind indicates that the movement
may not work out so well. If it had
iint bgea uwoufita yut iatft ihe 9£ca j
and the organization could have been
formed without any attendant pub
licity, it would have stood a much
better chance to succeed. The chances
now are that the movement is more
likely td embari aAs Reynolds, War-*
lick and Hill than help them."
The fact that many of those who
participated In the meeting in Char
lotte are admtitedly seekers of Fed
eral patronage and depending upon
Reynolds to help them get Federal
appointments, does not help the sit
uation, It is agreed ftere. Twb para
graphs in the story about the meet
ing Saturday morning strongly In
dicate that patronage was also dis 1 -
cussed at the meeting. One of these
paragraphs says:
"The meeting, it was said, was call
ed by R. Frank Holland Mecklenburg
manager for Mr. Reynolds and gen
erally understood to be the man in
line for appointment as the next
Charlotte postmaster."
The other paragraph is as follows:
"Various plans and political odds
ends were discussed, it was said.
Much was said of patronage but little
was done about it. In the group, how
ever. were many leading contenders
for some of the choicer cuts of po
litical pie.”

the opinion that the movement was
sarted by pie-seekers in an effort to
get further into the good graces of

Hill and other Reynolds

thfirn at all. But whether it will work

Doughton, Murphy ;
To Be Leaders In
1933 State House
BT J. C. DABKEItTRL.
Raleigh, Dec. s.—Former Lieute
nant Governor R. A. Doughton. of
Sparta, Alleghany county, and Wal
ter Murphy c* Salisbury. Rowan
county, both former speakers of the
House, are expected to become the
most influential leaders in the House
during the 1933 session, according to
many of the old timers here who have
been speculating on the forthcoming
legislative session.
It is generally conceded that there
is not an abler parliamentarian in
North Carolina than Murphy or a man
more familiar with the State's pro
blems. it is mlso pointed out that Mur
phy possesses a rare faculty for say
ing a great deal in a few words and
for compelling attention when he
speaks. Those who have observed him
in past sessions of the General As
sembly frankly regard him as the
most able friend or most dangerous
antagonist that can be had on any
I legislation. He frequently sits and lis-
PAGE THREE
tens to hours of debate without say
ing a word, then gels up and in a
few words reviews the entire con
troversy and announces his position
on the question. Usually a majority
votes with him. Many agree that
whenever Murphy declares war upon
any particular bill it is almost aa
good as defeated.
Doughton has not been in the Gen
eral Assembly for a number of years
and belongs to the older school of
politics In the State. However, he haa
been in close touch with the State
for years, first as com
missioner of revenue and lated a a
chairman of the State Highway Com
mission. so that he is entirely familiar
with the operation of the State gov
ernment and its needs. He is regard
ed as constructive in his tendencies,
although rather conservative, and as
a powerful protagonist in debate. Be
cause of his many years in the north
western part of the State, Doughton Is
familiar with the needs and problems
of the farmers, while as the result of
his experience as commissioner of re
venue he is also familiar with the
condition of business and industry In
the State. As a result, it is expected
that he will be able to legislate fairly
for all concerned and to become a
real leader in the House.
