That any person, with one preceding year's residence in this Com- monwealth and with degree from a qualified chiropractic school re- ceived at least one year prior to the date when this law takes effect, may, within ninety days after such date, be certified by the board at its discretion without examination.


That otherwise no person, except a member of the board of regis- tration, shall practice chiropractic unless, being over twenty-one years of age, of good moral character and graduated from a reputable chiro- practic school after personally attending courses of at least twenty- two hundred sixty-minute daylight hours given to persons qualified to graduate from a public high school, he shall qualify by examina- tion, pay a fee of twenty-five dollars and be registered and certified ; except that any person licensed in another State maintaining stand- ards equal to those of this Commonwealth may be registered without examination.

That the board may, after hearing, revoke a certificate for cause.


That the board shall make an annual report and shall keep public records of its proceedings and of the names of persons examined or

Penalties are provided for practicing chiropractic without holding a certificate or for using the words "Chiropractic Practitioner", the letters "D.C.", or any title or letters indicating engagement in such practice, or for buying, selling or fraudently obtaining any diploma or record of registration.


It is further provided that the present law relating to the registra- tion of physicians and surgeons and providing penalties for the un- authorized practice of medicine shall not be held to discriminate against registered chiropractors; but no chiropractor, unless regis- tered as a physician or surgeon, may practice obstetrics, or adminis- ter drugs, or perform surgical operations by use of instruments, or hold himself out as and for other than chiropractor, which was dis- approved in the House of Representatives by a vote of 50 in the af- firmative and 151 in the negative and in the Senate by a vote of 13 in the affirmative and 21 in the negative, be approved ?


Question No. 2 LAW PROPOSED BY INITIATIVE PETITION

It provides that the State conventions of the political parties, in each state election year, shall be held before and not after the state primaries, as now, namely, not later than June 15. In order to elect delegates to such party conventions, party primaries are established to be held on the last Tuesday in April. Among other things, these state conventions may endorse candidates for offices to be filled by all the voters and to be voted upon at the state primaries. Such endorse- ment places a candidate in nomination, at such state primaries, with- out the necessity of filing nomination papers. The name of the en- dorsed candidate is to be placed first on the ballot and against his name is to be placed the words "Endorsed by (the name of the politi- cal party) convention" in addition to the eight-word statement now authorized by law. Candidates endorsed by a party convention may


109


accept said endorsement within ten days, and having so accepted may not withdraw.


It also provides for the election of the district members of state committees and members of ward and town committees at the pro- posed party primaries in April, as well as delegates to the State party conventions, instead of at the state primaries in September, as now.


It also provides for the election of delegates to national conven- tions (to nominate candidates for President) at the proposed party primaries instead of at the primaries, now specially held for that pur- pose, and which existing law requires to be held on the last Tuesday in April (the same day proposed for the proposed party primaries).


It also provides for certain other new provisions of law and certain changes in existing laws, relating to holding state conventions and party primaries, the number and election of delegates to state con- ventions, the number of members at large of a state committee, and other matters, which in more detail chiefly are as follows :


State conventions are to be composed solely of delegates elected at the party primaries, and the number is to be one from each ward and town. and one additional for every fifteen hundred votes or major fraction thereof above the first fifteen hundred votes cast at the preceding state election in such ward or town for the political party candidate for Governor, instead of a number now fixed by the state committee of each party (not less than one from each ward or town) and certain members designated by existing law.


The time, for notice to the State Secretary by aldermen or select- men of their determination to hold primaries by wards, precincts or groups of precincts, to be March 1, instead of August 1, as now.


The names of candidates for election for delegates to a state con- vention and for district members of a state committee to be arranged individually by alphabet instead of in groups arranged by lot, as now.


Vacancies in the office of delegate to a state or national conven- tion not to be filled except in case of a tie vote, and then by delegates from the same district, within ten days, and if no other delegate or if not so filled, then by a state committee, rather than solely by the remaining members of the delegation; and statement of filling of such vacancy to be filed with the State Secretary.


Seating of delegates at state conventions to be in groups by sena- torial districts, and order of business at said conventions defined.


Voting on candidates, by a convention, to be by roll call, if more than one candidate for the office, or by groups of delegates unless any member of such group objects.


The number of members at large of a state committee of a political party to be fixed by the state convention or a party instead of by the state committee, as now.


The existing provisions as to preparation and filing of nomination papers, objections to nominations, preparation, number, substance, ar- rangement and form of ballots, hours during which polls shall be open, opening of ballot boxes, canvass and return of votes, return and


110


certification of votes, now applicable to state primaries to be appli- cable to the proposed party primaries.


The power of a state committee to fix the number of district delegates to a national convention to be continued, but the date, of giving notice to the State Secretary, of such fixation to be March 1 instead of on or before the third Wednesday in March, as now.


The power of city and town committees to fix the number of mem- bers of ward and town committees to be continued, but the date, of giving notice to the State Secretary, of such fixation to be March 1 instead of August 1, as now, which was approved in the Senate by a vote of 21 in the affirmative and 17 in the negative and was disap- proved in the House of Representatives by a vote of 62 in the affirma- tive and 138 in the negative, be approved ?
