HOW HELP MAY
BE GIVEN VOTER
AT POLLS TOLD
Voter May Ask Member of
Family Or Election
Official for Aid
While the Australian Ballot Law
specifically declares that "no markers
shall be named or permitted in pri
mary elections," there are three meth
ods by which those desiring assist
ance in marking their ballots may re
ceive it, Attorney General Dennis G.
Brummitt points out in a letter to
Judge J. Crawford Biggs, chairman of
the State Board of Elections. At
torney General Brummit also calls at
tention to that section of the law
(Section 140) expressing prohibiting
any loitering 6r electioneering in the
vicinity of the polling places, suggest
ing that the registrars and judges of
election should keep this section in
mind and strictly enforce. The sec
tion is as follows:
"No person shall, while the polls
are open at -polling places, loiter about
or do any electioneering within such
polling places or within 50 feet there
of."
The three methods by which voters
may obtain assistance in marking their
ballots are set forth by Mr. Brummitt
as follows:
J * 1. A voter may ask and secure aid
from any election official at his voting
precinct—that is, from either the reg
istrar or from one of the judges of
election.
2. Or the voter may select any mem
ber of his or her family, who shall have
the right to go into the voting booth
with the voter and assist in the prep- J
aration of the ballot.
3. Or the voter may obtain the as
sistance of any other person requested
by the voter and approved by a ma
jority of the election officials. 
"It is quite clear that markers are!
not to be appointed in a primary and
that no person should, on his own re- [
quest, be permitted to assist a voter, |
Mr. Brummitt points out. "Assistance
should be permitted only when the re
quest is made directly and in person by
the voter desiring assistance."

♦ ——
: Another demonstration forest total
i ling 1,564 acres o£ land containiug
. nearly three million board feet of
: timber at this time has been donated
j to the State College forestry depart
> mcnt.
This tratt was accepted by the Ex
i ecutive Committee of the board of
• trustees at a meeting held with Gov
. ernor O. Max Gardner last week. The
gift was tendered by A. D. McLean, of
! Washington,-Beaufort County, and the
) land lies in Hyde County along th*
Futigo Kiver about 13 miles from Bel
haven. Highway VI intersects the
land and tlje inland waterway runs
along one boundary. The donation
cwas not an outright gift but was so
Arranged that the forestry depart
. ment may make a nominal payment
per acre ffttm proceeds derived from
I I the timber. L)r. Julius V. Hofmann,
• director of the forestry department,
'says the payments can be met easily
Pa'nd that his department is fortunate
lin having a student laboratory and
forest in the coastal
section of the State.
"This area is typical of thousands
of acres of pine land in North
I lina and adjacent states," Dr. Hof
mann says. "We have made a cruise
of the whole forest with our senior
.students, assisted by Professor Ralph
Hayes of the department, when we I
classified the timber as to species and

size. The area contains only a few
swamps of small acreage and the pine
type -previals orer -most of the forest
which indicates that it is fairly well
drained. It is well stocked with both
t>ine and hardwoods but needs fire
protection. Even with the present
lack of care, the forest is growing a
volume of about 5 percent increase in
timber each year."
College officials say that the acqui
sition of this flew forest area will give
the opportunity to demonstrate good
principles of successful handling and
management in eastern North Caro
lina. Similar work is now t>dng done
on a tract of 1100 acres in Durham
County donated three years ago by
George Watts Hill.

To the Democratic
Voters of Martin
County , "
• V "
In announcing my candidacy for the office of Reg
ister of Deeds, I realize that I am not known to many
of you. I expect every Martin County citizen to make
his or her choice as to who they shall have to serve
them.
9 f
For those of you who do not know me, and it is
very doubtful that I shall have the opportunity of
seeing you, I wish to inform you that I am not Mr.
Luther Hardison, of Griffin's Township and now of
Jamesville, as some have thought.
I am not a professional man, nor is one required—
or at least we haven't been requiring one. I atri not
ashamed that I am a member of the Church of Christ
and the Democratic Party. I have supported the
church and state and the public interests generally
until overcome by physical disabilities, coupled with
disastrous results of "favoritism in law," whch has
wrough profitless toil to most of us who live or stay
on the farms. With this condition, our public bur
dens have been hard to carry on, with those of a more
private nature, and since the other candidate, Mr.
* Getsinger—the efficient servant that he is—has en
joyed the benefits and our confiidence that you and I
have extended him for a number of years, it seems
not out of place for me to ask for a place where the
physical burden is not so great and where the bene
fits, although twice reduced as it must of necessity
be, will more nearly meet living requirements.
L Our governmental cost, from the United States and
its departments down to the towns, including in
structional and debt service ought to have been ad
justed before now more nearly in proportion to the
ability of the taxpayers to pay, with due regard for
qualifications.
I am asking for your support in the forthcoming
primary. No new job is to be created, for it seems
we have a surplus of public jobs as well as products
of the farm. I have so little to spend in traveling
over the county to let you observe me that I must
rely on those (if any) who appreciate the opportunity
of votting for a new candidate (who realizes condi
tions as they exist with most of you and that one in
office has an advantage) to lend me such assistance
as they ipay feel inclined to give.
I hope all of you will consider this choice that you
are gomg to make, in view of the fact that I have
not been benefited with public offices, and if a dis
tribution of benefits of the public ia ever justified it
is now, and exercise your privilege for the greatest
good to the greateg number. ~
A •
I believe I can perform the services that are re
quested and required with but very little difficulty.
Respectfully,
L. J. Hardison
