MORE ALIENS THAN
THERE ARE BLANKS

Alien registrations under the new
poll tax section of the California po-
litical code have so far exceeder first
estimates that some of the registrars
have not enough blanks to accommodate
scores who wish to register.
In CaleXico the deputy registrar yes
terday and today was forced to turn
away approximately 200 who wished
to be registered. Deputy Registrar
Dick Cohan ran out of blanks at the
district attorneys office shortly after
noon today, and similar condition
exists at Brawley where hundreds OF
Japanese and MeXicans and large
number of other nationalities have
already been registered.
In providing registration blanks
County Clerk M. S. Cook estimated
that 1000 would cover the entire coun-
ty but it now appears that this mum.
ber will fall several hundred short of
the required number. Some of the
'gistrars in the outlying school pre-
cincts have not yet q registered any
aliens according to the reports received
by the county clerk, and he expects
that the blanks returned by these de-
puties will cover the deficiency in the
