(b). The certificate to be filed by a candidate seeking
to be elected as a delegate to a convention shall, moreover,

tions of the City of Baltimore, when requested by any can-
didate in said primary election, said request to be accom-
panied by a sum of money necessary to cover the cost of
printing.
