The new military ballot law, Mr..
Garvey pointed out, provides that
Arizona men and women in the

by any relative or friend who is in
possession of sufficient information
about the applicant to fill out a
registration application blank.
From checks made thus far by
county recorders, Mr.. Garvey said,
I'VE know that a great many of the
service men and women who have
asked for absentee ballots are not
registered and therefore will not
be eligible to vote unless someone
registers for them. We are doing
everything possible to see that every
Arizona man and woman in the
armed forces who wishes to do so,
and is eligible, is given the oppor-
tunity to cast a ballot in the No
vember 7 general election. With
the assistance of relatives and
friends at home, we hope that most
of them will be able to exercise
their franchise. We are therefore
urging all relatives of service men

ty recorders of their home counties
to see if their service men are reg
istered, and, if not, register for
