'Choose Better Candidate'
"In Kansas and on the national scene, Republicans must select a better qualified candidate to win back losses suffered in the 1956 elections." Jim Pratt, state chairman of the Republican Party, said Thursday.
"In Kansas the Republican Party must nominate a man who has not taken sides in the partie's differences." Mr. Pratt continued. "I firmly believe that such a man would win back the governorship for the Republicans in 1958."
He also discussed a plan for reorganization of the Republican Party in Kansas, saying that it would begin with county organization and work up.
In speaking of Gov. George Docking's proposed budget," he said, "The Republican legislators will go along with anything that is for the good of the people in Kansas, as long as the Governor's program is sound."
Mr. Pratt praised the KU Young Republicans and said that the future of the party in Kansas, as soon as 1958, would rest in the cooperation received from such groups of young people.
He is calling a meeting of Republican officials in March to discuss such a plan. He emphasized his stand by saying, "We are going to have to go to the grass roots of each county and better organize the county committees."
Mr. Pratt said that no one has announced intentions of running for Governor in 1958, but that some names had been suggested. He mentioned those of Clyde Reed Jr., a member of the Board of Regents, and Clifford Hope, former representative to Congress from the Fifth District.
Mr. Pratt is also chairman of the committee on second class cities and vice chairman of the committee on fees and salaries. "Because of my position in the party I try to stay out of party differences, but still serve actively in my positions on committees," he said.
