TIL AFTER PRIMARY

PHOENIX July 15.-county Rec
order Vernon Vaughn has announced
that he will not permit voters who
have registered as affiliated with one
party to change their party afiilia-
tons This action was taken follow
ing the receipt by the recorder of an
opinion from County Attorney Laney
20 the effect that a registrant may not

he first requested the attorney gen
e-al for an opinion on the matter.
This request was made verbally
through Miss Jacobs. deputy record

rectly upon the subject is a case de-
cided by the supreme court OF Neva-
da in 1914 in which Il is decided that
registered elector cannot require
registry agent TO change the rec
orded designation OF political affilia-
ton.

zona TWO wears ago that the regis
trant could not change his party af
filiation.

es in registration for the past three
weeks. having had the opinion of the
county attorney for that length of
time. Prior to this opinion. he stat
ed. there were three of four republi-
cans who changed their registration.
