have a chance to register their opin-]
ion on the winning plan, and on what j

papers carrying the ballot, the press
alone will see to it that a ballot into
almost every home in the country.
These papers represent differing po- .

j true judgment and feeling of the Am

The ballot suggested to papers and
organizations by the award contains
! space for the name and address of the

I thewiiiiiiiig plan in substance?” with
a box for a yes or no vote, and a ques
tion as to whether the signer is a vo

contains the name of the organiza

lation of returns may be made in
cases where it is wanted. The award

ment of the returns from a particu
lar organization or newsna^er unless
it is specifically requested to do so.
