Community
To.
Voting Plea

Serious efforts have been made
to have all eligible voters in the
community register in time to
participate in the Primaries to be
held in September. AS result of
urging from various sources, a
number of women were deputized
as registrars and worked under
the auspices of the League of
Women Voters of which Mrs.
Thomas Lawther is this years
chairman.
Mrs. William LeBoff was Sc
lected as one of the deputies and
spent four sessions at Congrega-
ton Anshei Israel and the re-
mainder of the week before dead
line at a downtown corner. AS a
result a number of persons who
might not otherwise, did register.
After this experience it is Mrs.
LeBoff's impression that many
persons are not aware of the i'm
portance of the primary-that ac-
tually it is voting at the primary
which really selects the candi-
date. The regular election is
mainly that of voting for one or
another party candidate whereas
in the primary any number of
candidates appear for one office.
Registration will again be open
from Sept. 8 through 27 only, to
vote in the national election in
November.
All eligible voters are urged to
vote at the primaries, Sept. 7. 1t
is an important election.

Bill Seeks $500 Increase
In Police and Firemen' S Paw

Representative Beall, Republican
of Maryland, has introduced in the
House a bill to authorize salary
increase of $500 a year for police
and firemen here.
The measure, which was referred
to the District Committee, would
make the raises effective January
l this year. The increase would
affect the Metropolitan Police,
White House Police and Park Police
as well as f1remen.
The pay raise would be added to
the present salary schedule but
would not eliminate the 1945 pro-
vision, giving extra pay in place Of
overtime. The extra pay would be
based on present salaries, but not on
the increased income.
