THEY TOO SHOULD VOTE
christian Science Monitor

A group Of 20 Columbia University students was
removed the other day from the voting lists in New
York City because the state refused to recognize their
residence in school dormtories or other temporary
quarters establishing legal voting residence One Of
their number, law student and war veteran, cited
in their behalf but these were held irrelevant
No doubt the judge was correct in his interpreted
ton Of the prevailing law Nearly all states require
some such formula lone year in the state six months
in the country 80 days in the precinct order vote
But are such laws as this really fair when rigidly
applied to present-day circumstances in the United
States? They were enacted decades ago to prevent
fraudulent voting. Neighborhood acquaintance then
was perhaps the best test Of citizenship But birth
tficates have become much more common than they
WERE and have other kinds Of Identification.
Moreover American life is much more migratory
now than in its rather migrant past, mobile
labor force calls for good deal Of ransency the part
Of honest industrious people with interest in their
country Besides this there are the claims Of young
men and women away from their homes in the military
services or in quest Of education.
The provisions for absentee voting and registra-
ton, though made in form by many Of the states
are in general shamefuly inadequate These should be
greatly improved and legislatures should review the
residence qualifications that meet you at the polls

Truman Expects
To Replace WSB
Members Soon

WASHINGTON, (R)-President
Truman said Thursday he expects
to replace the resigned industry
members Of the Wage StaDiliza-
ton Board fWSB) before the end
of the week.
All seven members represent
ing industry quit last week in
protest against the Presidents
action in overruling the board in
the coal mine wage case.
Truman told news conference
that economic controls should be
extended beyond April 30.
He said he not only expected to
announce industry members for
the wage board, but that he ex-
pected to have a replacement for
Roger Putnam when Putnam
steps out as economic, stabiliza-
ton administrator. He verified re
ports that former Price Admins
traitor Michael v. Disable was I'M
der consideration for Putnam's
post.
Truman's announced intention
to get the wage control program
functioning again has run into
opposition from elements of or
gained labor, as we'll as business
organizations.
The us. Chamber of Commerce
has openly urged all businessmen
to refuse posts on the WSB and
both the chamber and National
Assn. Of Manufacturers NAM
demanded that Truman kill off
both wage and price controls.
Other government curbs, mean
while, were being relaxed.

MAIDS NIGHT OUT

"Born Yesterday" at the San Car
los Theatre.
Holiday with laughter. that's our
Judy, the beautiful and supposedly
dumb blonde who suddenly discov-
ers that she has more than the
birdbrain attributed to her. Judy
Holiday is superb in the leading
feminine role of the comedy.
Husky, crude, Broderick Craw-
ford, who first hit stardom in "Of
Mice and Men," steals many of the
scenes, but this is really Judy's
picture, just as it is her story.
She's the associate of Crawford, a
guy who came up the hard way
and stays hardboiled when he be-
gins to dabble in rackets and poll
tics. Once a junkman, always a
junkman, is his unconscious atti-
tude. But Judy surprises him. and
everyone else by branching out in
to appreciation of the finer things
in life. These include william Hol-
den.
Holden is hired to improve Judy's
social demeanor and enlighten her
on some of the cultural aspects Of
existence. He not only does his job
thoroughly. but as a newspaper
man, makes news by exposing the
rackets in which the junkman and
a Senator are involved. What's
more, he wins the blonde!

amusement; it also rings with

tons.
Seven other women and two 9TH

Jelke's powder-blue Cadillac con-
vertible, parked outside the apart

ing the guns but he had no per-
mits for them.

his mother was Mrs. Ralph Teal,
