quicker will those noble organs be de-

To prevent premature old age and

STATE ELECTION BOARD NAMES
REPUBLICAN AS VICE CHAIRMAN
New Rule FOR Approval of Vouchers
Also Is Adopted.

Oklahoma City, June A meeting
Of the state election board here elected
II. b. Beeler, the republican member, to
be vice chairman, place that has not
heretofore existed The object is to
keep closer check upon the action of
the board, as this election was followed
by the adoption Of resolutions providing
that all official actions of the board
must be by concurrence of two mem.
bers.
| One resolution provides that official
acts Of the board shall be evidenced by
certificate or attestation of the chair
man or vice chairman and the secretary
Of the board
| 1t Is also provided that secretaries
Of the county election board shall be
commissioned in vacation of the state
board only by concurrence of two mem.
bers of the board. In the past it has
been the practice of the secretary Of the
board 10 issue commissions for county
board secretaries.
Another action by the board at this
meeting was TO resolve that appropria
tions for support Of the state election
board shall be paid out only on vouchers
approved by the chairman or vice
chairman and secretary Of the state
board.
The last legislature passed a bill ere.
ating the several offices in the stase
election board, making them appointive
by the secretary of that board This
bill was vetoed by Governor Williams
The legislature made appropriations for
support of the board, however, and it is
thought that the resolutions adopted
today by the board and filed with the
state auditor will make the funds ap.
propriated for help in the office avail
able despite the provision Of the laws
that salaries may be paid only to Of
ficers created by law.
ArdmOre Man Is Member.
The secretary of the state election
board is the secretary Of the state SEN
ate, acting ex officio under a law Of
three years ago The other two men,
bers Of the board are executive ap-
pointees. The board as at this time
constituted is made up of Erret Dunlap
of Ardmore, chairman II. b. Beeler
Of Tulsa, vice chairman; Joe S. Morris
