Mr. Burch spoke at the meeting here last night without alluding to the direct primary method .of nomi« nating state candidates. It was his sponsorship of this issue, also a Democratic plank, which got Mr, Burch into trouble with party leadership. Party observers had been watche ing last night's meeting with ine | terest as the first purely organizae |tional affair at which the indes

Fact that he remained non-come mittal on the controversial direct primary issue led to belief he was waiting for the mutdied political waters to clear before making his next bid for independent party leadership. Republicans generally agree that Mr. Burch, although ostensibly running for re-election as auditor, actually is campaigning to lead the G.
