November general election. The staff of 20 workers in the voters’ registration office at the Court House began compiling revised voters registration files for November, Their task is to check signatures on all precinct poll books against the precinct registration ecards to make sure that all persons who voted in the primary were given credit for their vote on the cards. This is necessary because of the law which provides that registration of a voter must be cancelled if he fails to vote in two successive elections. After this check, the registration staff then must transfer the information from the precinct cards to the master file. This means that more than 106,000 separate cards must be handled twice. The registration office also must prepare to receive approximately 15,000 new registrations before the Nov. 4 general election. Besides, it is estimated that 50,000 registration transfers will be made. A total of 275844 persons were registered to vote before the primary and 285,880 were on the books as qualified voters before the 1938 general election. Registration is always highest just before a general election, officials said, although the actual vote may be less than half the number of those registered.
