Absentee Voters Must Register

.1

9w 4"'

Al

Deadlines are rapidly approaching
in nearly all states for the initial
registration of voters, a necessary re-
quirement before absentee voters are
eligible to apply for absentee ballots.
Voting residents of Michigan must
register before Oct. 15 personally, or
through the mail by obtaining an
affidavit blank from their respective
county clerks. Absent voters are re-
quired to register in the same man-
ner as regular voters, except in the
few states that provide for registra-
tion by mail.
The three general steps involved,
in absentee voting are registration,
application for the ballot and voting
the ballot, and each has different
requirements in the various commun-
ities and states of the nation.
Application for the ballot is usual-
ly accomplished by filling out an
affidavit .form which has been ob-
M~i INi

J?

tained from the applicant's town, city
or county clerk. In Michigan the ap-
plicantion must be made to the city
or village clerk two to 30 days be-
fore the election. Other states ac-j
cept applications between the sec-
ond and fourth weeks preceding the,
election.
The Union's Absentee Ballot Serv-
ice operates from 3 to 5 p.m. daily in
the Union lobby to assist students de-
siring additional information.

Up on the fourth floor of castle-
like Hutchins Hall are the offices of
the American Judicature Society
where its life-long secretary, Herbert
Harley, directs the task of editing
the Society's Journal. Out of its
pages have come the foundation for
virtually every reform accomplished
and now under way in the admin-
istration of justice.
The American Judicature Society'
was founded in 1913 to promote the
efficient administration of justice,
its first work being the publication
of a series of bulletins surveying the
fundamental operations of judicial
administration. The Society takes
the entire range of judicial adminis-,
tration, civil and criminal, state and
federal, as its field, and endeavors
to present. information concerning
means for improvement of court
and bar organization, judicial selec-
tion and tenure,civil and criminal
procedure, and legal education and
admission to the bar.

Local Office Aids Legal Reform

Atwood have served as presidents ofI

the Society. The present president
of the Society is David A. Simmons
of Houston, Texas'
During its first twelve years the
Society was supported entirely by
Charles F. Ruggles, a layman, and
now has a membership of about 2,000
lawyers and judges. It works in close
conjunction with the American Bar
Association and with state and local
bar organizations, all of which its
Journal serves in the field of judicial
administration.
The next issue of the Journal will
appear on Oct. 14 and will feature an
article by Professor William Wirt
Blume of the Law School faculty on
the subject "Review For New Trial."
The article brings a historical ap-
proach to the question of errors in
procedure, emphasizing the impor-
tance of this problem today.
"The Need For Three-Judge Trial
Court" reviews the developments in
Michigan of a statute providing for
three-judge trials in cases of unu-
sual difficulty. The Journal hails

this as a step toward eliminating te-
dious and expensive jury trial in
cases of a particular and minor char-
acter, or when jury trial is waived,
in all cases.
Also included in the October issue
of the Journal are articles by Joseph
O'Meara, Jr., of the Cincinnati Bar.
John H. Wigmore, Gordon Bean, of
Washington, D. C., and Judge Char-
les Sumner Lobingier, containing val-
uable contributions to the field of
administrative justice. .

Faculty members are being polled
in an entirely new way for the Con-
gress All-Faculty Presidential Straw

dent of Congress, explained yester-

remainder will be distributed today.

used in Congress' All-Campus Poll,
which the independent group con-
ducted during registration week. Vot-
ing will begin as soon as the faculty
members receive their ballots and
will continue until 4 p.m. Wednesday,

These two gas stations
DOUBLED THEIR BUSINESS
with
An increase in net profit of 122 PER CENT-
achieved solely by improved lighting: That is
the startling record of Mr. John ,T. Rancu's
gas station at Woodward and Stimson Avenues,
Detroit. In this "before and after" test, made
to determine whether better lighting really pays
its way in dollars and dents, a careful record of
costs and sales was kept. The resultant figures are
actually conservative. * *' M.r. Wilson Morrison,
owner of a gas station at 10600 Harper Avenue,
enjoyed a similar experience. He added new re-
flector flood lamps, and increased lamp wattage
over the grease and wash racks. Three months
after the installation of improved lighting, his
gross sales had jumped 146 PER CENT. He says.
"Since installing modern floodlighting and reflec-
tor lamps at my gas station, I have better than
doubled my business. This increase was way be-
yond my expectations, but I can now appreciate
the value of good lighting as a means of increas-
ing business."
Would you like to get an idea of how YOUR gas
station will look when flood lighted? We will be
glad to demonstrate. No charge or obligation. The
equipment can be set up right on y'our premises.
Phone your Detroit Edison office.
