SEEK BALLOT O. K.

Voters Rouse Postal Officials From
Beds to Attest Elec.

Pennsylvania and Virginia voters
think nothing of routing the postmaster
and assistant postmaster of the Wash
ington city post Office out Of their beds
in the wee small hours to sign their
ballots.
A voter from one of the states called
Postmaster Mooney at am. today to
ask about when he would be ready TO
attest his ballot. as elections are now
going on Tor county officials.
1t was before midnight, however, when
another voter routed William II. Hay
cock. assistant city postmaster out of
his bed. and demanded instant service
on his ballot.
The officials would make no state
ments officially about the matter. but
II Is understood that unofficially they
had a few things to say today about
voters who would call at such hours.
Several months ago Postma ter
Mooney wrote to the attorney general
of the state Of Virginia, stating that
the law of the state requiring absent
voters to get the attesting signature
of a postmaster worked hardship upon
postal officials. He suggested that the
law be amended to permit Of notary
public signature.
