The Record .

No amount of campaign distortion by the opposition
from the voters mind the magnificent Eisenhower
Republican record of the past years brief
of that record.
He has brought this nation peace with honor abroad
unprecedented prosperity at home put end to Korean
slaughter prevented another in FormOan straits and
proved to the world at Geneva this couny dedication
lasting world peace based upon position of strength.
He has bostered the free world against Communism
has real hope for abundant future with his Atoms
for Peace plan he has restored honesty and integrity
eminent dignity to the Presidential office and reversed
20year trend toward Capitalization of power in Washington
He raised the vce-presdency position of vital i'm
portance; people working higher wages than
before; unemployment is at alme low This is the
most widely shared prosperity in nations history The
budget has been balanced He has the farmer firmly
the road recovery reduce the crushing price
depressing SURPRISES He has up the soil bank program
to cut SURPRISES and increase farm income.
His administration has created the Small Business Ad
mnstraton and special cabinet committee small business
which have made significant strides toward increasing small
business share in prosperity.
He has restored friendly relations between the White
House and the Congress- He is keeping in mind Abraham
Lncons philosophy that the legitimate object of govern
do for community of people whatever they need
have DONE but do at ALL we'll do for
themselves in their separate and individual capacities. In
all that the people individually do well for themselves
government ought not to interfere.
On the basis of this great record the American voter
will President Eisenhower to the White House. and
send with him strong working Republican majores in both
Houses of Congress- With that in mind the people Of Mary
land should also reeect John Marshall Butler the IT,
and Dewitt Hyde Congress- They have been
celent representatives for the state.

Official Figures
Of Registration
Are Made Known

Official figures on the registra-
ton of voters was released this
week by the Board of Supervisors
of Elections and shows little change
in the proportion of Republican and
Democrat voters.
In the twenty-seven voting pre-
cincts in the county there are 6,328
registered Republican voters, 3,646
registered Democrat voters, 46
registered with other affiliations,
for a total of 10,020 voters in the
entire county. The statistics also
showed 5,474 male voters compared
to 4,546 female voters
The total vote is 191 less than
was listed in April, prior to the
primary, but number of names
were eliminated this week from the
registration books because persons
had not exercised their right to
vote in the past five years.
All such registered voters who
were in this category, were sent
notices telling them of the inten-
tionS of the registration officers.
This was done at revision day. Per-
sons who had died we're also strick-
en- from the books at this time. AS
a result Republicans lost ga and
Democrats lost 103.
Percentage-Wise over SiXty-three
percent of the voters are Republi-
can, while little less than 81 per-
cent are Democrats, almost two
to one margin for the COP. This
ratio has held in spite of attempts
by Democratic precinct workers to
persuade people to change their
affiliation from Republican to
Democrat.
Gains in total numbers were
noted in eleven voting precincts
while one remained the same. There
were losses in fifteen.
Only in four precincts do DC"'o-
Gratis outnumber Republicans. These
are in %, Friendsville; So, Acct
dent; 8, Johnsons; and 1872, Vim
dex. Biggest difference in regis
tration is at Sang Run where the
Republicans have almost a five to
one majority 1t is four to one at
Jennings fatoring Republicans, al
most three to one at Bittinger and
II, Oakland; and over three to one
at Crellin.
The complete registration figures
by polling places is published in
this weeks issue.

Paper Ballot Use
Is Termed Legal

Attorney General c. Ferdinand
Sybert gave a hesitant opinion on
Monday that Garrett County voters
may legally use paper ballots in
stead of machines on Tuesday, No
vember 6.
Garrett will be the only one of
% Maryland counties which won't
comply with a 1855 law that made
use of machines mandatory by this
general election except lin the
event of emergency or other I'M
usual circumstances"
The Garrett County election SUI
pervisors and county commission
ers have been unable to agree thus
far on the type of machine to pur-
chase.
Governor McKeldin asked the
attorney general if continued use of
paper ballots would be legal. Sy-
bert replied it was mot wholly
without doubt and that he didn't
consider the Garrett situation an
emergency.
The right to franchise is SO i'm
portant," he continued, that I'VE
would hesitate to take the position
which would have the effect of dis
franchising voters of the entire
county of our state.
1T is perfectly apparent that pro-
lection must be accorded the right
of the citizen to express his choice
by ballot and that every reason
able effort should be made to SO
construe the statutes as to avoid
penalizing the voter"
Sybert recommended that the
1857 General Assembly consider an
amendment to the election law to
make sure the machines will be
available in the future.
