Costa Ricans 10 Vote
For President Today
By the Associated Pres,

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, July
25.-The women's vote may be
the deciding factor in Costa
Rica's presidential election to-
morrow. Women will take part
in national balloting for the
first time in this Central Ameri-
can republic.
About 10000 women have
registered. Total registrations
approximate 800, 900, compared
with some 10000 in 1949.
The presidential candidates
are Jose Figueres and Fernando
Castro Cervantes. They repre-
sent generally the groups which
clashed five years ago in a brief
civil war from which Figueres
emerged victorious.
The winning candidate will
succeed President Otilio Ulate
for a 4-year term. Voters also
will choose a 45-member cham
her Of deputies. A quotient sys-
tenn guarantees representation
OF all political groups in the one
house congress.
FiguereS served as provisional
president for some months after
the civil war. Before turning
over the Office to his constitu-
tionally elected successor he put
many Of his social ideas into
effect and thus incurred the
enmity Of conservative and
wealthy elements.
Castro has the support of the
conservative element. He is
accused by the Figueristas Of
being a tool of the United Fruit
Co., which owns extensive banafa
properties in Costa Rica. Castro
denies any allegiance to the
company.
Sundays balloting will be done
between S am. and 6 pm. Count
ing will begin Immediately after
the polls close. The results are
expected to be known by mid
night unless the race is close.

He said it showed disrespect

We had to wash-the name of
