necessary to open registration on
May 1 of this year for the purpose
of registering those who failed to
register in 1924 and those who have
since become of age. 1t will be
necessary to transfer only those
who have in the meantime moved
to Navajo county from somewhere
else. It is not necessary to trans
fer from one precinct to another
in the county, fer the issue is mat
ter which concerns the entire state
with no special concern to one
county over another.
County recorders shall not be
permitted to designate any registra-
ton officers to handle the work, so
it will be necessary for all who
wish to participate in the election,
if not already registered, to appear
before the county recorder or some

cinct of his or her residence, and
subscribe to the blanks WHICH this
