ply : Koenig Candidates

List Of Nominators of Every
Shade of Political Belief
Reads Like a who's Who

Surrogate John r. Cohalan was
placed in nomination to succeed him
self yesterday by petition containing
Lille names. The nominating petit
tion, which is said to be the largest
ever fled with the Board Of Elections,
was filed by Professor Leslie J. Tomp-
kins, head of the law department Of
New York University.
Nearly as many names again were
not filed, because the staff at Cohalan
headquarters was unable to check up
the number turned in at the last mo-
ment. 1t is estimated that 10000 men
and women of every shade of political
belief signed the petitions of Cohalan,
who was forced to run Independently
after Charles F. Murphy and Samuel
S. Koenig entered into a deal to re-
move him from the bench.
Is Largest Petition Filed
Professor Tompkins, after filing the
petition, said:
This is the largest number of sig
natures ever attached to an independ-
ent candidates nominating petition, 80
far as ! could learn. The actual num-
Der filed, which exceeds 1900, nearly
trebles the combined number of names
attached to the Murphy-koenIg candi-
dates for Surrogate. When it is remem-
bered that the Gohalan signatures were
all gathered by volunteer workers, and
not through the agency of two boss
ridden political machines, the signifi-
canoe of the vast number of signers is
manifest.
"The law calls for only 1900 names.
This number we obtained within forty
eight hours after Cohalan announced
he would accept the challenge Of the
bosses and run Independently, as the
Non Partisan Lawyers Committee, the
Citizens Union and numerous other
civic organizations urged him to do"

The first day Of registration yester-
day for the coming elections was un-
usually light. The figures from all
the boroughs showed a falling off
generally of from two to five hundred
in the various assembly districts, as
compared with the fiFt day last year.
In, some of the Manhattan districts,
the comparative loss from last year
was more than six hundred votes, fof
the first day. This was true in some
of the strong Republican districts on
the upper West Side. One or two dis
tricts, however, showed slight gain
over last year In Brooklyn this
years figures were nearer those Of
last year. In Queens, the totals In all
six assembly districts were from two
to five hundred below the first day
figures last year. The eight assembly
districts in the Bronx made even
poorer showing than Queens, as COM
pared with first day registration in
1891. The two assembly districts Of
Richmond showed falling off of
1.078. Last year the Richmond total
was 1927 for the first day, while
yesterday it was only 2,749.
Bronx Total 1919
The Bronx total was 1919, as com
pared with 23,494 on the first day last

Westchester Public
To Air It's Views on
Government Change
Citizens Invited to Voice
Opinions ON Proposals to
Alter County Administra-
tion at Meeting Oct. 23

The citizens of Westchester County
are to be given an opportunity on Oc-
tobcr 23 to voice their opinions on the
Of the county. This was decided yes
terday at meeting of the Westches-
ter County Government Commission at
White Plains.
The public meeting will be held in
the auditorium Of the White Plains
High School and invitations to attend
will be forwarded to all the various
civic societies, including the. League
Of Women Voters, numerous clubs,
county and town officials and the
Board Of Supervisors. This will be the
first time the public will be given an
opportunity to tell what changes they
think should be made in the county
government. The session will be called
TO order at 10 a. m. and will last all
day.
Chairman Henry r. Barrett presided
over the meeting Of the commission yes
terday, at which twenty-one members
were present, including four women.
At the last meeting Chairman William
j. Walln, Of the. County Government
Plan Committee, submitted tentative
report, in which a cabinet form of gov
ernment was suggested, with county
executive as the head and board of
estimate. No steps were taken at that
time to adopt this suggestion.
Some of the members yesterday op-
posed calling public meeting until
the commission had voted on a new
charter, but Surrogate George A..
Slater, of Port Chester, member of
the body, emphatically demanded that
the citizens In general be permitted
to air their views. His motion was
adopted.
"The public is not coming here to
ask US questions" he said "Those
who attend the meeting will tell US
what they want. Then we can discuss
and approve plan, and after we have
acted we can have another public hear
ing. We are all cropping in the dark,
and we want the views of the citizens
to clarity the situation"
1t was reported that the officials
and citizens of some of the towns are
opposed to any radical change in the
present form of county government
A delegation of women was present
most of them members of the League
of Women Voters, of which Mrs. Cas-
par Whitney is chairman. They arc
watching closely every move in con-
nection with the activities of the com.
mission.

haitian districts, especially on the West
Side, there were seven or eight women
In line soon otter the polls opened to
one or two men. On the upper East
Side above Forty-second Street, com
prising principally the 18th, 14th and
18th Assembly districts, the showing
Was better for the naen.
In the Bronx the tables were turned,
and while the usual light registration
for the first day was reported. the
women were falling far behind the
men. Ths two candidates for Secretary
OF State--Jamca A. Hamilton, Commits
sioner of Corrections, on the Demo-
cratic ticket, and Samuel j. Josephs, on
the Republican ticket--were among the
frat to register.
There was an unexpected indifference
Of new citizens of foreign birth toward
taking the literacy test required under
the new election law, whereby they
must be able to read and write in order
to vote. Very few such persons ap-
peared to take the test. It was expect
ed that many new voters would appear
for the literscy test on the East Side,
but none was reported during the early
hours.
Many OF the new voters in this sec
tion had prepared to comply with the
uGW Ny sSnAihG thS eScS
at the public schools in the locality of
their registration places, and securing
the necessary certificates, which certify
that they have passed the test and are
eligible to vote. Practically none of
these, however, appeared Mt the regis
tration places in the district last night.
The gath Election District of the I'd
Assembly District, at 1893 Forsyth Street,
reported that three men had taken the
literacy test and passed successfully.
The 22d Election District of the 4th
Assembly District. in Public School 100,
Suffolk and Rivington streets, reported
that four men had taken the test, of
whom three were successful in passing.
1921 Total 162,20s
Last year the total registration for
the first day for the five boroughs was
162,20s. This included both men and
The final figures, however, for
the six days Of registration, climbed
to 1,262,340. Of this total 451,443 men
and women enrolled as Republicans,
and 663,s36 Democratic men and
women. The number of men enrolled
in the Republican column was 276,6s1,
as against 172,762 women, while the
enrolled Democrats were 446,415 men
and 2I7,421 women.
The figures for the first days reg
istration in 1921 by boroughs was:
62,820; Bronx, 23,494;
Brooklyn, 57,406; Queens, 14,481, and
1927.
