Show '.. I, f t , ,t f. THURSDAY, JULY 60 YOU THERES FRIENDSHIP When you stay at ByJOlINCOItLKTT Statesman Political Editor g The days are not over for Idaho Democrats. They must decide whether their stale convention shall be as open in 1974 as it was in the presidential election year of 1972. There is a difference and already there are people in the party who want to close the convention procedure to allow control by those who have actively worked in the party over the years. Some even want to return to the convention system of endorsing candidate' fpr the primary ' election. , The openness of the Democratic Slate Convention at Sun Valley resulted from a mandate of the 1968 Democratic National Convention for e selection of delegates. This mandate does not apply to the year convention in 1974 when the election of a governor will be the major interest of the campaign. The liberal platform written and adopted at Sun Valley under the guiding hands of delegates new to the Democratic Party and attending their first convention, caused old party pros to shudder. It was not that these pros disagreed with the planks on abortion, sex education, readoption of the new criminal code, etc., it was just that they thought it was politically "to mention them at all. In a crunch, these Old Guard pros would have compromised the language in the planks in an effort to make them more politically acceptable. With a governor and other state officials running in 1974, some of the pros prefer a convention procedure capable of being controlled sufficiently to keep the party in the hands of those who have operated it over the years, and also assure the troversial writing of a non-co- n platform. The new people in the party will want to retain the open convention. Obviously, they will want to select delegates to the 1974 state convention in legislative district caucuses with everyone taking their chances on becoming delegates. At the Sun Valley convention, 425 delegates were selected in district caucuses for the sole purpose of selecting delegates to the Democratic National Convention. They also voted for officers and helped write the platform along with 450 other delegates who were chosen by the 35 legislative distriact central committees. rule-writin- Owner-Manage- FRIENDSHIP INNS-- &D ry IN POCATELLO.

Attends Couple Takes Politically WHERE EVER J nt If the latter system is used to select delegates to the 1974 convention, it will be a closed" one because the 858 precinct committeemen would decide who went to the convention. This contrasts with the 4.500 persons who took part in the April 17 Democratic district caucuses. There is no good reason why any Democrat should want to return to the convention system, created in 1963 and abandoned in 1970 by legislative action. There will be no need for limiting the number of primary candidates for governor and U.S. senator. Gov. Cecil D. Andrus and Sen. Frank Church should be unopposed for of of r pre-prima- The Republicans at their June convention called for a return of the endorsing state assembly, fearing, perhaps, that they will have a plethora of candidates for governor in 1974. But the tenure of their resolution urging return of such assembly was that their candidates should be subservient to the party instead of to the people. 16-1- 7 pre-prima- ry the the be Franklin Briefs The J.
