Byrd Scored for Vote
Against British Loan
By Primary Opponent
BY the kssoeioied Press

CHARLOTTE COURT HOUSE,
Va, July 5.-Senator Byrd was
sharply criticized for his opposition
to the loan to Britain by his Demo-
cratic primary opponent, Martin A
Hutchinson, at a July American
Legion rally here which also heard
the Senator praised as a political
and economic friend of the rural
Virginian.
Mr.. Hutchinson said that the
American farmer and particularly
the tobacco farmer OF Southside
Virginia has a real economic stake
in the recovery of our best GUS
TONER" and II think they know
what would happen to prices tomor-
row if bankruptcy in Great Britain
forced the British tobacco farmers
off the market"
MY opponent calls himself a
friend of the farmer" Mr. Hutchin-
son said, yet he voted against the
British loan, just as he has, in the
past, voted against the Farm Sc
curity Administration, the Commod-
ity Credit Corp; against crop in
surance and farm subsidies, and
against paying the sons of farmers
and other Americans-the mag
niflcent base pay of $50 a month if
they happened to be serving in our
armed forces
Speaking also at the program in
what was Mr.. Hutchinson's first
campaign appearance before the
voters was State Senator Charles
T. Moses of Appomattox, who point
ed to Senator Byrd's record in public
life and said that roads legislation
enacted while Mr.. Byrd was in the
State government has resulted in
great tax savings to the rural popu-
lation.

Alexandria Council
Asks Election 10 Fill
Unexpired Term

A special election to fill the un-
expired council term of the late
John A. Logan is in prospect in
Alexandria after Judge William P.
Woolls of the Alexandria Corpora
ton Court received a certificate from
the council yesterday announcing
that vacancy exists for the re-
mainder of Mr.. Logans unexpired
term, ending August 81.
Samuel Luckett, who was elected
to the council last month to replace
Mr.. Logan, who died May 9, will not
take office until September l.
The council acted to certify the
vacancy after Councilman John W.
Tulloch pointed out that, with eight
men remaining in the group. instead
of nine, motions are frequently lost
by tie votes.
Election Would Cost 81 900.
Declaring that it is mandatory for
him to issue a writ of election to
fill the vacancy for only a one
month term unless the Council re-
scinds its action, Judge Woolls as
serted that special election would
cost the city approximately $1,000,
since it would not be fair" to Re-
publicans and other party members
in the city to have a special election
on the day of the Democratic pri-
mary August 6.
Citing the Virginia law concern
ing the time for setting an election
Judge Woolls said a minimum OF
20 days for holding the election
! is required after issuance of the writ
Mr.. Tulloch said he did not pro-
pose that the Council take steps tc
fill the vacancy Immediately after
Mr.. Logan's death on May 9. be-
cause during the first month after
ward the Council appeared to be
functioning smoothly without tie
votes.
Zoning Pleas Lost by Ties.
I'm recent weeks a number of
very important rezoning applica
tions have been lost by four -to-four
votes, and I feel that regardless
of whether it is a $50 matter or a
100000 project of the apartment
type that we have recently been
called upon to decide, all such re-
zonings are important to the indi-
viduals concerned.
The city can lose revenue if we
hold up developments like subdi-
visions and shopping centers. In
the long run, if it costs the city
$500 or 5000 to hold an election
and the man elected makes the
difference in votes to put through
progressive measures, it is worth
it to the city," Mr.. Tulloch said.
He added that there were no OBJ
jections raised by the council men,
bers when he proposed that the
vacancy be certified at the meeting
Tuesday night, and that if the
councilman to be elected serves for
only one or two meetings, it is i'm
portant that the people have his
representation. The Council meets
on the second and fourth Tuesday
of each month.

Primary Registration
Closes Tomorrow
For Virginians
BY the Assoeio.ed Press

RICHMOND, Va. July 15.-One
more day remains for Virginians to
register and qualify to vote in the
August primaries.
The deadline for closing the reg
istration books 30 days before a pri-
mary was fixed by an act of the 1916
General Assembly, making the pri-
mary registration requirements con-
form with that previously in exist
ence for general elections.
The new act, which took effect
June 10, requires that local regis
trars sit 80 days before the day on
which each regular primary and
general election is held. So far as
the August primary is concerned,
this means voters may register up to
midnight tomorrow.
A check with the secretary of the
Commonwealth confirmed that vet
erans discharged in time to reach
their homes and register prior to
the deadline should do so in order
to take part in the primary.
Veterans discharged after the
deadline may vote by showing their
discharge papers to the election Of
flcials on primary day. Veterans
who return to their old home pre-
cincts and who had registered there
prior to their military service need
not reregister in order to vote Au-
gust 6.
Veterans discharged since jan
uary l, 1945, do not have to pay poll
tax in order to vote this year, but
those discharged prior to January
l, 1945, must have paid their 1945
poll taxes.
Evening star., 1946-07-05

In yesterdays Star it was mad
vertently stated that Saturday is
the deadline for registering in the
November general election. After
the primary the books will be opened
again for registration.
