ror as a means of enabling a voter to vote in the event, that his name is left off the registration rolls by an error of the registration officials is not a matter that this committee can finally determine. “From the evidence, apparently both of these devices have been used in previous elections. The concern of the committee is not with form, but rather with substance; that is, the right of every, duly registered voter to cast his ballot and have it counted. “Statements were made by some

of the witnesses that the situation

is not a novel one in this area, which would not be surprising in view of the confusion in the law and the partisan method of administration.

“In conclusion, your subcommittee |

believes that it was highly improper for the attorney-general to send out on Nov. 8 to county election boards a telegram not merely interpreting the registration law, but ordering these boards to disregard instructions of ‘the state board of election commissioners and accompanying that order with a threat of investigation by a special state senate committee. “He had no legal authority to take such action and admitted it himself ip testifying that he considered the

: \ Indianapolis Is

Now Getting Ready for

Its Next Big Job

| I T’S A LOT more comfortable to be | on the giving end of a Red Cross Dollar . : ; than on the reeeiving end.

&

» Here in Indianapolis we’ll all have a “‘chance next month to do the giving. That's our community’s next big job. Hundreds of volunteer workers are organising and getting ready to handle it. They’ll be seeing us.

> We who give, stay at home in comfort and security. Those who are on the receiving end of our Red Cross dollars are our fighting men and women on our battle fronts. They endure indescribable discomforts and risk suffering and death day after day.

» Few of us can possibly have any fully comprehensive idea of what the American Red Cross is doing for the sons, husbands, daughters, wives and families of our fighting forces in this war: Here are a few of the dosens of interesting facts based on Red Cross activities during the 12 months ending February 28th of this year. During this period ‘ the American Red Cross:

— Served in 782 Army and Navy Hospitals and 1,117 Army and Navy Camps and Stations.

= Produced 64,580,000 surgical dressings every month.

«Arranged 1,047,896 loans and grants for service men and women.

—Handled 10,800,000 Packages for prisoners.

—Trained and recruited nurses for the Army and Navy. ~Collected 6,000,000 pints of blood—which alleviated the suffering and saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of our wounded

» These are a few of the things that happen on the receiving end of the dollars you give

to the Red Cross next month.

» Nearly 7,000 men and women are in the American personnel of Red Cross service overseas: Approximately 5,000,000 Americans give all or part of their time as Red Cross volunteers here at home:

» America will be asked to give $200,000,000 for the year’s Red Cross work. Of this, Indianapolis and Marion County will supply

$1,145,500—which is $75,000 more than was

collected here last year.
