WILL PROD THE
VOTERS TO POLLS
NEXT NOVEMBER
Manufacturers and Business Will
Urge Careless Citizens to Exer
cise Privilege.
Half of the qualified voters of Ne
braska and other slates who went
(ranting or otherwise disported them- j
selves on election day in 1922 are to
be prodded next November into be
lated recognitions of their civic
rights and obligations by the manu
facturers of those states.
An elaborate campaign to get out
the vote, with manufacturers and
business men beating the bushes for;
stragglers, was outlined here by the
National Manufacturers' association.!
More than 100 thousand members,
several thousand of whom are in the
Corn h usker state, have been request-1
ed to start immediately to interest:
the voters in the issues of the cam-,
paign.
According to representatives of
the association, the effort will be
nonpartisan and in the "broad spirit
of urging every Nebraskan enjoying;
the franchise to go to the polls and
vote."
John B. Kdgerton, president of the
association, declared that "if the peo
ple all would vote there need be no'
fear of radicalism or bolshevism, aSj
the overwhelming number of con
servative Americans would overhal-j
ance a radical move, no matter how '
intelligently directed."
National organizations of all kinds
will be urged to throw themselves
into the campaign with the view of
bringing about an election that will
"be truly representative of the will
of the people."
Chamber of Commerce, Rotary'
and Kiwanis clubs, merchants' and
manufacturers' groups, as well as re-i
ligious and fraternal organizations.'
are expected to take the lead in this,
plan to induce the stay-at-homes, to
vote for president.
It is learned that this campaign
was mapped out at a conference held
here several months ago. which had
before it an analysis of election re
turn? for 1920 and 1922, indicating'
that each year the American voters i
are giving less and less attention to
the selection of office holders.
Mr. Edgerton is advising the mem
bers of the Manufacturers' associa
tion that if they do their part they
need have no fear of the result whenj
i ne iiaiioii goes io me TDung
