With F. c. c.

Twenty Jehovah's Witnesses deliv-
cred a truckload of petitions to the
Federal Communications Commission
Office today requesting that a debate

Society.

truck and carried upstairs to the
commissions office, where they were
stacked in a corridor. The Jehovah's
Witnesses said couple Of million"
persons had signed the petitions,
which said, in part:
1.-THE Roman Catholic press pro-
tests the broadcasting Of Judge
Rutherford's speeches by radio for
the reason, as claimed, that he mis-
represents the teachings of the Roman
Catholic Church concerning the SAL
vation Of the human race"
Permission for q radio debate on
the question was asked 'in the general
interest, convenience and necessity of
the people"
The petitions were received by John
B. Reynolds. acting chairman Of the
commission. 1t was said in the COM
mission office that 1t has no authority
to compel radio stations to accept
such a program.
The Jehovah's Witnesses later took
their sound truck to parking lot
ut Thirteenth street and Constitution

SOMERSET BALLOT
CALLED ILLEGAL
Election Supervisor Cues.
tons Validity Because of
Reprinting.
BY the Associated Press.

6J tne hssoCiateQ EIebSs
CRISFIELD, Md, November 1.-THE
validity Of the Somerset County ballots
was In question today, on Q point
raised by James E. Byrd, Democratic
and minority member of the County
Board Of Election Supervisors.
Byrd said that, in his opinion, any
candidate could have the entire county
vote thrown out because the ballots
for use in the voting Tuesday are
purely illegal"
Two sets Of ballots were printed for
use in the county. The first lot was
reported to have the congressional
candidates on the top Of the ballot.
Then the board met and voted to print
second lot with the presidential
candidates at the top.
Byrd Is the owner OF the printing
plant which produced the ballots.
Ballot Not Published.
In Q formal statement Byrd said:
"The law requires that q facsimile OF
the ballot be published In the news
papers. When the revised ballot was
published and the FIRST was not, that
invalidated the first ballot. The re-
printed ballot Is. in my opinion. illegal.
because the election board did not
formally notify the printer Of its
form and order 10 days before the
election a. the law requires.
Denies Books Missing.
The election ofiicial said the board
was going ahead with the reprinted
ballot and that it would be used
Tuesday.
Byrd entered q vigorous denial that
any Of the registration books were
missing.
A report had been current that the
books for the East Princess Anne and
Lawson districts were absent from the
court house files.
