NATIONAL MENACE
Miss Ludin6ton Jumps Hard on
Stay-at-Home Voters
BY GEORGE II. MANNING

Washington, D. c., Sept. 1.-THE
voter who does not vote is real
menace to democracy. says Miss
Katherine Ludinston of Old Lyme.
Conn, who as first vice-president of
the National League OF Women Not-
in the United States.
Perhaps if We would focus our
attention less on some vaguely dan
gerous vote and more on the indif-
ferent voter, we might come to
grips with one of the actual dangers
TO the working Of democracy" Miss
Ludington declared.
The fact that voters must have
some comprehension of public ques-
'ions and must take part in settling
them is the vitalizing challenge of
democracy-but it is also its dan
ger" Miss Ludington continued.
I'VE have set up here in the
United States a remarkahl expert

The best brains of the past and the
present have been expended in max

factor in the situation. We are re-
alizing the part that must be play
ed by the electorate from whom all
power derives and by whom, in the
last analysis, all questions are set
tied.
NO system OF self government
can work If we neglect the selves
who work if. And Yet, Curously
enough, in educating the inhabitants
of this country, the last considera-
ton seems to have been that these
inhabitants are voters. Whatever
else they may be, after 81 they are
voters if they are naturalized citi-
2ens or if they We're born in this
country and are not in prison. 1t

You puzzle and ponder how to

You are uncertain what he or she
may turn out to be. Has it ever oc-
CURED TO YOU that whatever else
they may be they are dead sure to
be voters?"
