SPEAKER CLARK TAKES

Advocates Allowing Them. to Vote
When "On the Road-Would
Change Day.

Speaker Champ Clark believes that a
method should be devised whereby per-
sons who are away from home on cleo
ton day may be able to cast their bal
lots. Speaker Clark appears to be of the
opinion that the light vote cast in No
vember was due in part to the inability
Of voters to appear at their legal polling
places. The Speaker points out that Con-
gress has no power to fix the qualifica-
tions for suffrage, and he cOmmends the
proposed reform to the consideration of
the States. In an authorized statement
on the subject. Speaker Clark said:
