PALLATF LIKELY HAKE PROTEST New Jdon Ballot Involved in Legal Complications Mtord, Aug. 831.—A legal ques- tig involving the use of ballots may ujet the coming municipal election igiNew London and apply also to lo- ‘elections in the towh of West (Mtford, the city of Bristol and the ?wu of Stratford. According to a statement by At- orney General Frank E. Healy yes- terday the law passed at the last ses- sion of the general assembly requires that ballots used at elections in every town of the state must contain desig- nations which will indicate the politi- cal partisanship of the candidates. This law superspdes the provisions in the special charters of New London, West Hartford, Bristol and Stratford, which enabled the people of these municipalities to make non-political nominations and to elect their local officials without regard to political affillations. In other words it brings 10 an abrupt end the attempt to elimi- nate partisan politics from local af- fairs and it forcés the towns to return to the old political system. The New Law, That part of the law of 1923 which refers to the. matter reads as follows: “All such ballots shall be printed on plain white paper of uniform col- or, quality and thickness for each bal- lot of the same class to be determined by sald secretary. In addition to the ofticlal indorsement which shall ap- pear on the back thereof, all ballots shall contain a list of the candidates of the several political parties which shall be printed in parallel columns. Each celumn shall be headed by the name of thesparty whose candidates are listed therein, and shall be ar- ranged in such order as the secretary, may direct, precedence being given t the secretary's endorsement, will take, The protest will not guarantee that the ballots shall be {mmune from the detect in invalidity.
