Poll Tax Date

Virginians who desire to vote
for President this year have only
two weeks left in which to pay
their poll taxes.
They may register any time
prior to 80 days in advance of
the November 6 general election,
Those desiring to vote in the
July 10 congressional primaries
must pay their poll taxes on the
same deadline-May sand have
until June 9 to register.
The poll tax is $1.50 a year.
In Virginia a voter need not de-
clare his party affiliation at the
time he registers.
Organizations like the League
of Women Voters have been try
ing to stir up voter interest and
in Arlington and other nearby
communities have begun a public
information drive to warn of the
poll tax deadline.
The poll tax must be paid an
nually. Once registered. however,
the voter stays on the books I'M
less he dies or moves.
Registrations in nearby Vir-
ginia are at record levels, a Star
survey shows.
Arlington County had $4,000
voters registered as Of April Is.
This included more than 5000
names added since last Novem-
Der.
In the last presidential cleo
ton, November 1852, Arlington
had 45.848 names on its voting
lists. But three months later
5000 names we're purged from
the books. !. These were people
who had died or moved away.
Since then a continuing purge
has been in effect.
Fairfax County had 39.512.
registered voters as Of last
Thursday. This represents a
substantial increase over the
November, 1852 registrations
which totalled 29,764. Here
again. the 1852 registration was
inflated by about 5000 as indi-
Gated by a purge of the books in
February. 1858.
Alexandria officials estimate
approximately $4,000 city resi-
dents are registered for this
years voting. This is about a
1000 increase over the 1852
registration figures.
Falls Church has 1925 regis
tered voters but no figures were
available on the 1852 registra-
ton.
