"The highest privilege given to

the growing carclessncss with re-
spcct to the exercise of the right of

"This bill provides no way Of de-
tcrmining and makes no provision for
any person or persons authorized to
determine whether or not physical
disability may or may not exist in
any particular case, and deem it
highly probable that such law might
lead to extravagant abuse. which, by
reason Of lack of control over the
question of determining physical dis
ability, would be practically devoid of

right Of certain persons to vote in
