Record Number Ready
To Vote Tomorrow on
Alexandra Council

A record number of voters are
eligible to cast their ballots in the
Alexandria City Council referendum
tomorrow.
City Treasurer Roger G. Sullivan
said 14,878 citizens paid their poll
taxes in time to vote. He said there
were only 1910 eligible voters in
the 1946 City Council election.
The voters will decide whether to
continue to elect six. city councilmen
from wards and three at large, OF
whether to elect a seven man council
at large. Polls will be open from
6 am. toe pm.
City Registrar Fred Petit said
his Office was still busy with last
minute registrations. The deadline
for registration is pm. today.
Meanwhile, supporters of the two
plans concluded their campaigns.
Ward plan advocates claim that a
council elected by wards is more rep
resentative. At-large supporters as
sert their plan is more democratic
because every citizen gets chance
to vote for every councilman.
A number of prominent Alexan-
drians have announced their inten-
ton to run for council If the at large
plan is adopted.
Polling places will be as follows:
Ward 1-Armory Hall and City
Hall. Ward 2-Georpe Mason School,
Cameron Mills road; Ward 3-No.
