LOOKING FOR LOOP-HOLE

CHICAGO, Feb. 13.-Some loophole
in the law requiring women to tell
their ages when registering as voters,
has been this week the special search
of gallant County Judge Thomas F.
Scully. "The age is required merely
as a matter of Identification" says
Judge Scully. "and is not essential. 1
will not under any circumstances go
outside the law, but l believe some
provision will be found by which we
can omit the age declaration. 1t
would greatly encourage registration,
and l will make a ruling soon on the
matter"
