Deal’ Mr. Vining:
You must know that I am very
Jknuch opposed to the Absentee bal-
Wot and have been for a long while.
It is most undesirable and as long
as we have it we will have a tre
mendous amount of fraudulent
voting. Those who are holding up
this are assuming a big respons
ibilty.
Much to their credit, fully ninety
per cent of our voters are against
this ballot but many are taking
no interest in the repeal. They
should see those of the County Ex
ecutive Committee who are holding
up repeal and also write Mr. Mc-
Dowell, of the House, to support
Senator Bacon, of the Senate.
Yours very truly,
B. L. Ballenger
Editor’s Note: . We are glad to
have this public statement from
Mr. Ballenger, a member or the
k iounty Democratic Executive com.
I/Aittee. We hope the other members
of the committee, Dr. Green, Mrs.
Camp, Mr. McFarland, Mr. Led
better, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Laugh
ter and Mr. Camp can also see
their way to help abolish the absen
tee ballot law.
