VOTING BOARD
DRAFTING WILL
BE UNCHANGED
LemauX Advises Robson Man
ager Equal Representation
Is Not Possible.

Republican City Chairman Irving W.
Lemaux today mailed a letter to Jo-
Seph G. Hayes. campaign manager for
Edward J. Robson, candidate for the
Republican nomination for mayor, in
which he replied to the suggestion of
the Robson committeeman, sent to him
several days ago, that in selecting the
Republican members of election boards
he give each of the four Republican
mayoralty candidates equal representa-
tiOn.
At the same time II was announced
that in view of the death Of Mr. Lemaux's s
father George Lemaux, last Friday. and
his natural desire TO remain In seclusion
for q time, that the task OF selecting the
Republican inspectors. sheriffs, clerks
and judges on the election boards has
been turned over to Ernest L. Kingston,
Republican city vice chairman.
CANDIDATES TOO
NUMEROUS FOR CHANGE.
In his letter TO Mr.. Hayes, Mr.. Lemaux
stated that because there are so many
candidates for all city offices 1t is i'm
possible for him to attempt to give equal
representation on the boards. and that
for this reason the usual procedure Of
naming the officials on the recommenda-
tions of precinct committeeman would be
followed, it is understood. Mr.. Hayes
has not yet received a copy of the letter.
Mr. Kingston stated that it is his under
standing that he is to name the officials
as usual upon the recommendation of
precinct committeeman.
Mr. Lemaux also promised in the letter
to Mr.. Hayes that the Republican cleo
tion officials all will be honest men of
cfapdincY in ha ~
TO LEMAUX FOR
FINAL APPROVAL.
After the list is made up by Mr. Kings
ton it will be submitted to Mr.. Lemaux
for final approval, the vice chairman said.
1t must be filed with the city board of
election commissioners not later than
Thursday, the law requiring that it be
in the commissioners hands not later
than five days before the primary.
The request of the Robinson camp for
equal representation came as the result
of threats of the Howe organization that
unless precinct committeeman lined up
bshind Mr.. Thomas C. Howe, former
president of Butler College and News
Jewett candidate for mayor, their
boards would be taken away from
them" In other words, their recommen-
dations would be disregarded by the city
chairman.
Thomas D. Meeker. Democratic city
chairman, is filling the list of Demo-
cratic appointees on election boards, Mr..
Meeker said that he expects to complete
his appointments in plenty of time to
file them Thursday
Il am trying to find good honest men.

mary" said Mr.. Meeker.
