That is a main aim of the Ma

It is a campaign of reminding
not nagging-the individual citi-

his neighbor, his community, his
country and to the practical ideal
of workable representative democ-
racy to exercise his right to vote.
Not Picking Sides.
Political organizations, in their
effort to line up voters and get
votes, legitimately urge them to
vote for this or that candidate
and party.
The non-partisan drive-politi-

fostering government by the con-

ing to tell Americans how to vote.
1t just wants to make sure that
they vote as they think best.
The goal of at least So million
votes November 4 is not so close
or so sure that it can be taken
for granted. Nor can it be
achieved without constant moves
to maintain and intensity the al
ready obvious upsurge in popular
interest in the coming election.
Other articles in this get-out-

hurdles of past voting perform
ances that must be overcome
not merely to break records but
to assure a really representative
vote.
