LOTS OP INTEREST SHOWN
IN SOLDIER VOTE LAW
RALEIGH ? Almost every day
some newspaper or State official
beyond the borders of North Caro
lina calls for information on this
State's soldier voting law. The Sec
retary of State Thursday had a
request from The New York Post
for a brief summary of N. C. pro
visions, together with whatever
;omment he cared to make. Sec
retary Eure responded with the
statement that this State has gone
a 3 far as any other, and farther
than Congress can possibly go in
providing opportunity for soldier
/ote. Under the Federal Constitu
tion Congress cannot prescribe
mles for primaries, and there is
grave doubt in minds of many good
lawyers whether it can set up or
change requirements for voting in
the general election. Whatever
happens in this soldier voting busi
ness, the number of requests for
Jata on our State law indicates a
/ery lively interest on part of news
papers throughout the country.
291 CORPORATIONS PASS
OUT OF THE PICTURE
RALEIGH ? The charters of 291
North Carolina corporations were

Eure said the policy of suspend
ing delinquent corporations had
b:en followed for 30 years and that
the suspensions last year were the
lowest in that period.
