Is More Machines
For Record Votinq

The Arlington County Board
yesterday authorized purchase of
Is new voting machines after be-
ing told that record 10000 per-
sons may show up at the polls
this November.
The board acted after Bankhead
T. Davies. secretary of the county
Electoral Board, said he expects
$4,000 or more to vote in the gen.
eral election. About 10000 persons
are eligible to vote in Arlington.
The County Board authorized
4.70O to buy the new machines.
The county at present has 70 vot-
ing machines in use.
Even with 95 machines in
operation we could allow each
person only two minutes in the
voting booth if 10000 people
turn out" Mr.. Davies told the
board.
lS
Mr.. Davies said the ballot will
be complicated this year with
seven referenda questions to be
voted on in addition to the presi-
dental. senatorial, congressional
and county board elections.
Unless the voter has decided
exactly how he stands on each
of the referenda questions and the
various election contests, he will
not be able to complete his vote
In two minutes" Mr.. Davies said.
The electoral board plans to
do all in its power" to help
people make up their minds. he
told the board. A special judge
will be provided who will patrol
waiting lines of voters and urge
them to decide before entering
the booth.
Five of the referenda questions
involve the local government. The
other two are technical changes
IN the State Constitution which
are placed on the ballot by action
of the Virginia General Assembly.
City Status an Issue.
Of the local questions the cleo
torate will be asked to- decide
whether Arlington should incor-
porate to city status and, if so,
whether school board members
should be elected by the people or
the city council, and whether the
city council should have five or
seven members.
Voters also will be asked to de-
eide whether the county manager
should be appointed for a stipu-
lated term of one year or for an
indefinite term. Finally, the ques-
tlon of whether county depart
mentS heads should be appointed
by the county board or the county
manager will be asked.
