 The first definite steps toward the revising of the city's voting lists were taken yesterday afternoon when the registrars of the four voting dis tricts met in the city court room with Lester G. Sigourney and Jo- seph F. Duttcn. chairmen of the re- publican and democratic town conl- mittees. respectively.
 Following a general discussion. It was decided to have a form letter printed for mailing to voters whose present addresses are uncertain and also to those who have failed to eA- ercise their voting franchise during the past several years. In the event such letters are returned because of inability of the postal forces to make delivery. such names will be stricken from the voting list. h each instance a return card will be enclosed with the letter for the con- venience of the voter. Willard A. Hunt and R. G. Fitzpatrick. repub- lican and democratic registrars n the second voting district, were named . committee of two to draft copy Of the proposed letter and then confer with the chairmen of the town committees. The two reg istrars will also arrange for the sub sequent printing of the letters and !, the return post cards. which will then be turned over to the regis trars of the various voting districts. The greatest difficulty in the re- l vision of the list will be experienced 1 in the first voting district. it is be- l lieved, due to the fact that between | four and five hundred persons who from the city are included in the list This was brought out at the city election two years ago when a can didate for the council had several hundred campaign letters returned undelivered.
 To Crgc Increased Remuneration
 Both Mir Dutton and MT. sigour- ney expressed the opinion that, un- der the new method of handling the lists and with the large amount of work involved in inaugurating the ] new system. the remuneration of the | registrars should be increased. At 1 the present time. each of the eight registrars IS paid s1o0 a year. This covers services of such registrars al l the polls in addition to the compil- ! ing of the lists. Definite recommen- dations will be made at the mex; l meeting of the city council.
