All Qualified Voters May Ballot On Re vision Of Constitution Fverv oualified voter, whether registered under the designation of any political party or not, is privi.

leged to vote at the primaries, September 17, for or against a Convention to revise Pennsylvania's Constitution. This was made plain by officials of the State Elections Bureau, at Harrisburg, in detailing methods to be followed in balloting on the outstanding issue of the primary election, in the various sections of the State. The act calling for a referendum of the people to decide whether or not a constitutional convention is called, provided that in places where paper ballots are used, a separate ballot must be provided for the ref erendum question. In places where voting machines are in use, the question may be placed either on the machine or on separate paper ballots. In either case, the question, as it will appear on both the ballot and the machines, will read: "Shall a constitutional convention De called in accordance with, and subject to, the limitations contained jn act number 212 of the one thous- and nine hundred thirty-five session of the Legislature, to prepare a new or revised Constitution of this Commonwealth?" In order for the voter to approve calling of the convention it is necessary for him to mark an in the black space at the upper right hand corner beside the word "Yes" or to press the lever marked "Yes" on the voting machine.

Another lever will register his negative vote. Or on the ballot the voter should express his opposition by an on back of the word A'No." In cases where the voter is not registered under a party with candidates in the primary election, he will be given only the ballot carrying the Constitutional Revision question, or in places where voting machines are to be used, all sections of the machine except that containing the referendum question, must be locked off. Members of the Elizabethville Borough Council at their regular meeting Monday night again postponed action on the street lighting contract, proffered for a period of ten years by the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company. The borough body at its August meet, ing had postponed action to September 9th. A contract with this same company for street illumination, expired last month, after a term of ten years.

A number of citizens of the com- munity were again present to urge the borough body to defer action, and await the outcome of negotia tions for a joint municipal set-up for distribution of electric current, pro posed for this section of the county. Asked by a representative of the Reliance Hose Company, Council ap propriated the sum of $25 to the local Firemen's Relief Association. This is to be applied for payment of an insurance premium providing compensation for local firemen who may be injured in line of active fire duty. The Relief Association also receives monies accruing from levies on 'foreign' insurance companies, writing fire insurance on local property. In addition the Hose Company has approved a sum in excess of the borough appropriation, for the same purpose.

Police officer Jacob Wertz was authorized to make a count of all telephone and electric line poles, erected along public thoroughfares, as a basis for the annual pole tax levy by the borough. Receipt of tax monies resulted in a motion to reduce the borough's outstanding debt by $500 from its present $7500 total. Bills amounting to $241.83 were accepted and ordered paid and adjournment followed. In attendance were: L. L.

Sturte-vant, president )o Harry Tschopp, George Jemple, W. E. Matter, S. C. Shutt and Amos Walters.
