URGES CHANGE IN VOTE LAWS Co-operation in bringing about amend merits to the present law providing fur the registration of voters was asked in a letter written today by Adolph G. Emhardt, chairman of the Marion county democratic committee, to Harry C. Hendrickson, chairman of the republican county oominltee. Mr. Emhardt asks the assistance of Mr. Hendrickson in bringing before the proposed special session of the legislature an amendment to the provision of the law for the registration af absentees. He points out that under the law as It stood at the last registration, the names of many voters were placed on the books through fraud. At that time It was necessary for vof ers to sign an affidavit setting out their qualifications and have it attested by a notary. Under an amendmjyit of 1919. Mr. Emhardt explains, the registration blank of an absentee may be attested by any two qualified voters. According to Mr. Emhardt, many reg istrations were forged two years ago, and in some cases the handwriting of the signer and the bandwriting of the notary was the same. He points out that under the amended law It will be still easier to forge the signature of a voter or bring atout the registration of the names of voters who never actually existed. Mr Emhardt suggests that Woodburn Masson and Charles Remster, attorneys representing the democratic committee, meet with attorneys representing the re publican committee to draft amendments to the law.
