REGISTRATION OF WOMAN VOTE LIGHT Just Like the Men, Stormy Weather Interferes New York, Feb. 23.—For the first time in the history of New York City the polls yesterda and registered in order to vote under their newly acquired franchise. The voting is to be done on March in four congressional districts of the eity where special elections are being held to fill vacancies due to membe of congress having resigned. Two of these districts, the twenty-first and twenty-second, are in the upper part of Manhattan and the lower part of the Bronx, and two are in Brooklym» For the most part the women did not show any undue excitement or gratification over the fact that they are now on a voting equality with men. In each of the four districts the registration was extremely light, even the political leaders being sur- prised at the poor showing. They expect much better results today, however, when the polls will be open from 7 a. m- until 10 p. m. Yester- day the registry booths did not open until 5 p. m. and closed at 10 p. m. Moreover, the day was stormy and it was a holiday. { The women who did zo to the polls acted like old-timers in stating their qualifications for the franchise. They swered all questions put by the polling clerks promptly and without confusion, and in the majority of cases unhesitatingly told their correct age, or at least, did not tell the clerk haughtily to put it down as being “over 21.” In one election district in the Bronx nineteen women regis- tered, and only one refused to tell her | age. women went to Know Than Men. The Brooklyn wamen acted much as did their Manhattun sisters. It was very noticeable in many ca that the new voters had studied up on the subject, for they outclassed the | men in their familarity with the rule: In other cases the women were ac- companied to the registry places by their husbands or male relatives, and they did not have the = slightest trouble. ry few men voted because of the fact that thase who registered last vear are not required to register for this election. Only those are re- quired to register who since last elec- tion have moved from one clection district to another in the congress district, or who have come of age since the last election. In the twenty-first Congréssional district the registration totaled 1,381, and in the Twenty-second district the total was 975, Both Brooklyn dis- tricts made a better showing. Tha Seventh had a total of 1,239, and the sh a total of 1,570. In mar cases in both Manhattan and Brooklyn there were cases of not more than three and four women voting to an election district. In oné polling place in the Bronx, which has a large papu- lation, only seven women had regis- tered when the polls closed. Arnold L. Ayers, Chairman of the registration board, sald this held practically true throughout the Bronx. It was ex- plained by clerks in some of the poli- ing places that the fact that the regis- tration hours conflicted with those hours during whch wves prepare meals at home had something to do More very { with the poor showing. Weather Intorfered. Women citizens, who had their first chance to register last evening in four Congressional districts in the city, very generally followed the man- made custam of allowing this particu- lar business of state to wait for favor- able w her. The first observation which was made by most of the elec- tion officers about women voters was that they were very much like the They had full as hearty a re- spect for a snowstorm, and were | equally quick to realize that there Wwas no particular necessity for rush-! ing to a polling place on the first dav | of registration. Experienced election officers predicted that the new citizens would be much like the old-fashioned kind in that about 50 per cent. would wail till the last minute to register, while a healthy minority would forget ta register at all. There was evidently little of a mere- lv scientific curiosity in the new voter {to have the sensation of being a full fledged citizen cngaged in a transac- tion with one’s state. At any rate, the snowstorm apparently prevailed against the craving for political ex- DPerience.
