Alabama has in round numbers 1, 100000 persons twenty.one years of age and over. Of this number of voting age there are no doubt 100000 who could become qualified voters. As a matter of fact the greatest number who have ever voted in state election was 241, ,070 which was in the presiden- tial election of 1920. We have this situation, then, in our state, that less than one-fourth of the adult population is ruling the other three-fourths. This rule of the minority is a great menace 10 our democratic form of government and unless it is remedied at once our republican institutions are in danger.
 The League of Women Voters has manifested itself as great force to en- courage women to take an active part in politics probably the greatest single organized force. The National League in accordance with it's goal of 75 per cent vote in the November election is urging ali the states to make a get-Out- the-vote campaign.
 Get Out. The-Vote Campaign in Sep.
 tember.
 A meeting of presidents and heads of all statewide organizations of every character is being called in September by the Alabama League of Women Voters to launch the Get-Out-the-Vote Campaign by means of which 1t is hoped to increase the number of quali- fled voters who go to the polls at the November election. This is part of q lnation-wide effort to stir up interest in voting, induced by the figures of the 1920 presidential election which show that only 49 per cent of all the qualified voters in the United States exercised their privilege.
 The Alabama Leag1e is calling all other groups into consultation, as all are vitally interested in the welfare of the state, to see what can be done to remedy this distressing situation. The meeting will be in the form of a luncheon, about the middle of Septem. Der, in Birmingham. A list of every organization in the state is now being prepared and letters of invitation to the presidents will be sent out next week. Delightful AmericanizatiOn Program
