Voting Age Total
In November Put
| At o5 Million

Nearly 95,000,o00 Americans will
be OF voting age on election day

members of the armed forces over
seas plus l74,000 persons in Georgia
between l8 and 81. Georgia is the
only State where 13-year-olds can
vote.
The number of voteless Is not
known, the bureau said, but it in
cludes perhaps 100000 aliens and
61l,019 District residents. From the
Washington figure would have to
be deducted the number of persons
who will cast absentee ballots in the
States. also an unknown figure.
In the eight years since the 1910
census, the total number of Ameri-
cans of voting age has gone up TO-
ga, 900, or almost Is per cent, the
bureau estimated. Since the last

The figures show that Maryland is
expected to have 1,442,3 $3.50 of voting
age by November 2, while Virginia
will have 1905 800.

Ten Delegates Elected
By Write-In Elected
From China Assembly
BY the A,seeietad Prass

NANKING, Mar. 29.-The Nation
al Assembly conveyed on schedule
today-minus 10 ce-ejected inde-
pendents-to elect China's first con-
stitutional president.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek,
an unopposed cinch for the presi-
dency, told delegates the new setup
should put an end to the Com
munist rebels who are now in
dulging in a mad military ad-
venture"
Speaking at a farewell meeting
of the peoples political council
yesterday, Gen. Chang blamed the
civil war on his tolerance of the
Communists during the Japanese
invasion. He said he wouldn't re-
peat the mistake.
Hunger Strike Is Brief.
The assembly's inaugural session
was enlivened by a dispute over who
was entitled to seats. The 10 dele
gates removed by police were among
more than 100 independent write-in
candidates who demanded accredi-
tation. They insisted they were
elected in November, when they ran
without Kuomintang government
party sponsorship. Many write-ins
won out over minority party candi-
dates. They ignored Kuomintang
instructions to let the minorities win
an allotted number of seats.
The 10 were taken to a secluded
hostel under police detention. A
spokesman said they continued q
hunger strike; assembly officials sent
word the diehards had resumed
eating.
In an effort to settle the dispute,
Gen. Chang summoned the inde-
pendents to a second conference.
Before attending, more than 50
voted not to surrender their seats.
391 Short of Quorum.
Earlier. minority leaders agreed
to seat only their candidates who
did win. accepting Gen. Chang s
promise of future cooperation to
make up for their losses now.
Only 1859 delegates attended the
opening session-391 short of the
necessary two-thirds quorum. An
other 400 delegates were reported
en- route. Under the constitution,
the Assembly's only present duties
are election of president and vice
president for six-year terms.

didates are incumbent Sun Fo,
