alt is my Judgment that plant

regret that we do not have adequate
data on the optimum times for

Pick Committee
To Seek Record
Vote in County

An effort to bring out record
vote in Imperial county during the
pending presidential election is be
ing formulated with c. W. Remelc
named as chairman of a committee
in this district to head the plan. 1t
will be neither Republican or
Democratic organization, the plan
being to get all voters to the polls
on election day, regardless of their
political creed.
The movement is being sponsored
by the Southern California Develop
mcnt association and is known as
{, Better Citizenship Campaign.
The association will donate cup to
the community turning in the highest
voting percentage.
VI. ID. Witter, state assemblvman,
is the head of the committees for the
county of Imperial. Other commit
tees will be appointed for the var
ious valley communities and these
will submit their final reports to
Chairman Wittcr.
In explaining the reason for the
campaign ii is pointed out that in
1924 California was 32nd in the
union in voting percentage. In 1926,
following a similar campaign, it
jumped up to 2lst in voting per-
centage. This year il is hoped that
it will be brought among the lead
ing states as Il result of the cam
paign.
II Is hoped to arouse enthusiasm
in the election through contact with
high schools, service clubs, fraternal
organizations and through news
papers.
Every available means of bring
ing the voter to the polls will be
taken in consideration and the
committees will endeavor to keep
careful check in order to make sure
that each man aud woman is given
opportunity to vote.
