SHORTAGE
HITS CITY BALLOTS
Supply Sufficient for Five Tickets
Must be Stretched to Ac-
commodate Seven.

Ballots for the November election to be
used in this city will differ IN size from
those used in other elections owing 10 the
shortage Of white paper
When the official printer was commis
stoned last June TO prepare To print the
ballots this fail he was given TO understand
that there would be FIVE tickets placed in
the field He accordingly bought sufficient
paper To print all the ballots needed for
five parties, but on the final day for fling
candidates names and parties on Tuesday
the Department of Elections received
tickets from seven different political
parties.
According to the printer, II Is impossible
TO procure paper for the ballots at this
late date owing To the condition Of the
paper market lie and the election
officials having charge Of the printing of
the ballots are consequently facing this
situation; either 10 change the size of
the ballots in order that there will be
sufficient paper % print the entire seven
tickets or else fail TO print two tickets,
which cannot be considered.
1t is very likely that in making mp the
forms for the ballots the printer Will have
the names Of candidates set in smaller
type so that space can be saved.
