M0USSEAU ASKS
PUBLIC TO AID
IN REGISTRATION

+ Cooperation with deputy county
clerks who arc registering voters
was asked today by County Clerk
Calvin G. Mousscau, who reports
that some of the deputies are en-
counteripg considerable difficulty
in their work.
"Some people do not seem to real
i1c," Mousseau said, "that the depn-
ties are sent around to the residen-
tai and business districts, to accom-
modate citizens who do not have
time to 60 to the court house and
register. While registration is not
compulsory, the deputies are in
structed to explain that no citizen
can vote unless registered since jan
ulry l.
"Several deputies, working in the
residential district, have reported
failure by housewives to answer the
doorbell, and in few instances ::
summary slamming of the door has
been the only answer made to tbs
deputy's request for registration.
This is no. even common courtesy
and is certainly to be regretted.
"Rcgistration takes only short
time, and the deputies are as anx-
ious as those they solicit, to have it
done quickly. 1t is simply a matter
OF answering few questions. end
H., refusing to do this the citizen de-
Lives himself of the right to vote.
"This off, will certainly apprc-
ciatc it if the public will give tho
deputies all assistance possible"
