A League ow Women Voters
QUESTIONABLE designed to gather
information on voter registration
In Falls Church was banned from
the city's public schools by
School Board action last night.
Board members unanimously
rejected the leagues request that
school children be allowed to
take the questionnaires home to
their parents.
The vote was based on fear
that some city residents might
interpret the QUESTIONABLE as
Ia political document. Board
members said they did not want
Ito be accused of allowing political
activity In the schools.
The QUESTIONABLE includes a
notification to city residents
that October 8 Is the deadline
for registering to vote In the
general election November 8. It
contains q statement Of the laws
governing registration Of voters
and eligibility Of voters.
The questions asked in the
circular include the age Of those
filing 1t out. length of residence
In Falls Church and the State,
whether the person has paid
State poll taxes and whether
the person plans Ito maintain
voting residency in another
area.
The missionaries would not
be signed, but the league had
asked that the children be re-
quested to return them to the
school for collection by league
officials.

intendent, reported 1.073 STU

along Mexico's central and
northeast Gulf Coast continued.
In isolated Tampico, focal

damage, the captain Of that
important gulf port said the
