Columbia, April 14: Here’s what [ South Carolina’s new election law, ; passed Thursday by the legislature \ i means to the voters of the state: \ j L it gives them a secret ballot in general elections. 2. It requires that they meet the constitutional requirements for reg istration before being allowed to vote in any election, primary, general or! special. 3. It sets up statutes regulating' political parties. . | 4. It prohibits and provides pun ishment for fraud in the conduct of any election. In point of time, these are the things voters must do in order to participate in the 1950 -elections. First < f all. every voter must be registered, and that means he must show to a registration board that he lean write or that he owns and has paid taxes on property assessed at $300 or more. If he registered in 1948, 1949 or 1950, he doesn't have to register! again, unless he has changed resi dence. But he has to be registered not only to vote in the November general election but in the July primaries, and that is something new.) After this year, he will have to show his registration “certificate in order; ■ to vote, but that year he will only! have to be “identified to the satis faction of the managers of election’’, ' that he is properly registered. In order to expand registration machinery for this year, the law permits the appointment of addition al members of county registration boards. It also requires that regis-i tration books be taken into various i communities and that books be kept! open every day except Sunday be-| tween whenever the. governor signs j the law and June 10. Besides being required to regis-' ! ter, the votes now are bound by sta-! tutes in the conduct of their party, i affairs. (All South Carolina laws on: [party primaries and other party af-^ [fairs were repealed in 1944). The party member must meet the re quirements of his party, within the l limitations of the state law. So- far as the Democratic party 1 of South Carolina is concerned, there isn't much change in party proce-! I dure. Precinct, county and state i meetings will follow the same pat-! jtern under state law that they have followed - under party rules. Among I Local Lutherans To Help Raise $6,000,000 For Church Schools —♦— “Six million dollars in six days” for its 24 institutions of higher edu cation is the goal of the United Lu theran church in America next week, according to an announcement by the Rev. James C. Dickert, pastor of St. John’s Lutheran church nere. Final plans have been made by the local congregation for participation in the denomination’s April 23-30 “Christian Higher Education Year Appeal,” Mr. Dickert said. The goal of six-million dollars is for capital improvement of United Lutheran colleges and seminaries. St. John’s goal has been set at $1,000. A major portion of this amount will -be divided between Newberry bollege and the Lutheran Theological Southern seminary" in Columbia.

Store the few changes is a provision that ' precinct meetings in York and Dar lington counties be held at 8 p.m. i instead of at 3 p.m. A party may nominate its candi dates . for office either by primary or by convention, except that “no .conventions shall make nominations i for candidates for offices unless the decisions to use the convention me- | thod are reached by a three-fourths i vote of the total membership of such , convention. I Other persons may be considered. for office if they secure petitions with enough names signed thereto to meet the statutory requirements. The number varies with the type of office sought. The names of all candidates, whe ther nominated by primary, conven tion or petition, will appear on a sin gle ballot in the general election. That ballot will be prepared and distri buted by the secretary of state, at least with regard to state and con gressional offices. When the voter goes to the polls in November, he may vote a straight party tickei/a^plit ticket for can didates oFseveral parties, or he may write in the name of a candidate of his own choice. In counties desiring to do so, vot ing machines may be used in any or all elections for which suited. Finally, the qew elections law de fines, prohibits and provides pun ishment for just about all types of fraud or irregularity in voting and handling polling places. It specif ically bans intimidation, assault, use of liquor, impersonation of others, multiple voting, and various other devices used to influence unlawful ly or alter the free choice of voters.
