Times staff lorrespondpnt

LANSING. June 19-While IL
Of their brethren were detained at
Mason as defendants in asbribe-
taking conspiracy. Michigan's leg
islators assembled here today in
special session TO approve the
federal soldiers war ballot bill.
Since they already provided
state voting facilities for soldiers
earlier this year. the lawmakers
need only 10 approve an amend
ment enabling the serviceman 10
use a federal ballot if he has not
obtained a state ballot by Oct. l.
KELLY'S MESSAGE
In his special message, Gov
Kelly told the lawmakers.
"A sincere endeaVor was
made by this Legislature at the
January session this year to
assure voting privileges to
Michigan citizens in the armed
forces.
However, Congress adopted
soldier voting bill which
makes provision for use of
supplementary federal ballot
In instances where soldier has
applied for a state ballot but,
because OF the exigencies Of
war, has not received II by
Oct. ].
"The federal ballot provides a
vote only for president, vice
president and members Of Con-
gress. IL Is In no sense an ade-
quate substitute for the COM
plete state ballot but does af-
ford additional opportunity for
those absent In defense OF
democratic government to exer-
else one Of the fundamental
privileges Of democracy.
OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE
"On May 26 1 conferred In
Washington with representa-
tives Of the armed forces, and L
am convinced that a majority
of Michigan citizens in the
armed forces who desire to do
so will have an opportunity to
vote the state ballot.
But / was also informed
there were more than 10000
address changes daily In the
army alone, more than 10000
address changes In the navy
and proportionate number In
the other branches. This was
before the invasion.
1T II reasonable to expect
more frequent changes affect
ing larger numbers as the war
progresses. IL Is also impossible
to predict the status of the war
during the transmission of bal
lots and to what degree this
will hinder delivery.
Therefore, inasmuch as II
appears evident that despite
our best intentions and efforts,
some Michigan servicemen and
women will be prevented from
using the state ballot, I recon-
mended that our election proce-
dure be so amended as to make
provisions for use of the supple
mentary federal ballot In in
stances where a soldier has
made application for a state
ballot, but because Of exigen-
cies of war, has not received IL
