Ramsey to Address Convention on Resubmission Question
The May convention in Houston will not consider resubmitting the statewide prohibition amendment.

The caucus at Ramsey headquarters approved a ticket for convention officers led by J. M. Allerdice, O. S. Lattimore, and Pace. A Richards resolution on illiteracy votes drew focus, with a five member committee revising to extend ballot rights to voters over 60 who cannot read.
