sity Of giving ones exact ago have
any effect in keeping women from
the polls at the general election in
November?
This question 10 being discussed
both by the republican and the demo-
cratic womcn's committees.
Mrs. Frank nodson, Of Des Moines
head Of the woman's republican or
gantzs.tion, informed party workers
recently that the women would have
to give their exact age when they go
before registration boards next fall
Il can not conceive Of any woman
who has the good of her country at
heart deliberately losing her right to
vote for president and vice presi-
dent because Of q desire to withhold
her exact age" said Mrs. Fred S.
Petit, head Of the county woman's
republican COMMITTEES.
It used to be observed by county
superintendent that some OF the
schoolma'ams had habit OF living
to be 81 years old, and then ceasing
to have their years multiply, SO far
as records revealed in the registra-
ton at normal institutes.
Keep BALLOTS Separate.
Mrs. Petit said that the women
will be registered just like the men
but that on election day they will be
given separate ballot. one that con-
tains only the names Of the presi-
Dental electors Of the various par
ties. It Is expected that these bal
lots also viii be deposited In a
separate ballot box.

In Kansas objection was made by
. woman to giving her exact ags
when voting, and test case was
prepared. When appealed to the at
torney general he ruled that q
woman was not bound to give he,
exact aSe, but must swear that she

In Iowa this point has not beer
