New York state obtained the vote strictly New York military units in France last winter, sending a com- mission to France for that purpose. It is pointed out, however, that the troops were then all in (raining camps and not actually engaged a the front,and also that the process of replacement of casualties had not set in. The situation now is wholly changed and the time is not far distant when | every active division in France will be composed of men from widely scat- tered states. The localization of the divisions as they leave this side vir- tually is swept aside by the replace- ment policy. In this situation, should an attempt to poll the soldier vote be made at a national election, 48 state commissions it every unit of the army in France and determine the eli- gibility of the men in each unit claiming residence in each state to vote. According to War department officials, it would be a hepeless under- taking, and since the federal govern ment cannot itself participate in yecording of the vote which must, un der the laws of each s be taken by state officials, there is no remedy. Aside from the physical difficulties, considerable disorganization must fol- low any attempt at taking the votes in France, particularly as the men are changing from divislon to division every day as the casualties in action and from natural causes make such changes necessary.

Hartford, March 21.—Right on top of the action of the Connecticut leg- islature in providing for the votes of soldiers and sailors who are in war service, came last night the announce- ment from Washington of the atti- tude of the war department against the taking of such votes in France. Legislative leaders were conspicuous by their scarcity by the time the news was received and they could not be asked what they proposed to do next, it anything, but Governor Marcus H. Holcomb was found and he was inclined to be philosophical over the situation, feeling that if Uncle Sam said there could be no vote in France, Uncle Sam, otherwise the war department, settled the thing and that there was nothing to do but to bow to the decision. When informed of the action of the war department, Governor Hol- comb said that the Connecticut legis- lature had devised what, in its opin- ion, was the best way for taking the vote. He added that the vote could not be taken, of course, if the war department was against it. Only One “BROMO QUININE" To get the genuine, call for full name LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tab- lets.
