is little excuse for nOn-working
women not to find few hours each
month which could be diverted to
Red Cross activity of one kind or
another as their own particular con-
tribution to the war effort.

date of the 1914 primary election

Judge Brau|t Says
Soldiers Letters
Oppose Charter

Letters sent servicemen by the
Montgomery County Citizens Com
mittee to Defeat the Charter asking
them to vote against the proposed
change in the county's government
are being answered with . majority
of the writer's promising to vote
against the charter, Judge Albert E.
Brault revealed today.
At the same time, the Montgomery
County Charter Committee an
nounced list of speakers who will
present charter advantages to
organizations and civic groups
throughout the county.
More than q score Of letters have
been received from servicemen serv-
ing in all parts Of the world, Judge
Brault said, and more than 90 per
cent say their writer's will vote to
defeat the charter.
Burns Me Up"
One private wrote from France.
where he Is fighting with the Army.
Judge Brault said, that the charter
campaign is the kind of thing that
burns me up while I am overseas.
I wonder sometimes what people
think we are fighting for"
Judge Brault said another Army
man who has been overseas for Is
months wrote the committee that
I'VE members of the great American
Expeditionary Forces are interested
in the happenings at home more
than anything else and We want our
communities to be just as we left
them"
Terse Notes Received.
Still another wrote the committee
that the IL 900 servicemen now away
from home have not had the op-
portunity to examine the charter
question and should not have to
decide at this time whether or not
to change the county government.
Under the circumstances, there Is
only one logical way for servicemen
to vote-against the charter"
While most servicemen have given
their reasons for voting against the
charter, Judge Brault said, others
have written terse notes that they
will oppose the change.
