ELECTION JUDGES
IN GREAT DEMAND
City Recorder Issues Call for Volunteers
to Fill Vacancies in Twenty Nine
Districts.

The first call for volunteers for
Judges of election has been issued by
Noble Warrum, city recorder. Ten days
ago the city recorder appointed l74
election Judges to serve in the fifty
eight election districts of the city. The
law requires the judges Of election to
serve twelve hours on election day. dur
ing the time the polls are open and as
long thereafter as it takes to count the
votes. The patriotism Of a large num-
ber of those appointed was not suffi-
cient for them to sacrifice this much of
their time, and they have declined their
appointment,
The lists from which the Judges were
chosen were furnished by the Republi-
can. Progressive, Democratic and So
cialist parties. These lists are now ex-
hausted and the city recorder wishes to
receive applications today at his office
for vacancies in a number of election
boards. He prefers those who have had
experience as Judges and who are ac-
curate in tabulating and compiling
totals, There are vacancies which the
recorder hopes to fill from volunteer
applicants in districts /, 8, o, 10, IL, IA.
