MAYOR WILL ASK
 CITY ATTORNEY
Mrs.Hincks Wants to Know If Women May Vote On
 School Bonds

Mayor. clifford B. Wilson has de- eided to ask City Attorney William H. Comley for an opinion whether the women voters of Bridgeport may cast their ballots on the prop osition to bond the city for $125. GOO to com p1ete the new high school and $200.- 900 for new grammar school buildings and sites. The special election for the vote on a number of bonding measures. totalling about $1.3oO,000s will be held May 2.
 The mayor has taken this action because of a. letter written him by Mrs. William T. HIncks. The letter follows
 .sThe women electors of the city are election. Two years ago under the administration of Honorable Edward q F. Buckingham and doubtless follow ing the advice of City. Attorney Thos. M Cullinan, women electors voted on the matter of bonding for the High school.
 s.As one of the questions of the coming election is further bonding to complete the same high school an q also bonding to increase our gram mar school system, it would seem only logical that women electors would fdesire to vote upon these ques tiouS now
 which the women electors approve. that fhe voting ma chimes are not to be used It is, however, ain easy matter to have separate ballots and ballot boxes provided for women
 If the baI1oting is done as pro- posed In our schoolh ouses, would if not be grim humor to exclude from the election that part of the eIectrr ate which holds as its only public franchise the vote on school offic- CTS, education and schools?s,
