The first definite steps toward the revising of tha cit voting lists w taken yesterday afternoon when the registrars of the four voting dis- tricts met in the city court rooin with Lester G. Sigourney and Jo- seph F. Dutten, chairmen of the re- publican and democratic town coui- mittees, respectively. Following a general discussion, it was decided to have a form letter printed for mailing to voters whos» present addresses are uncertain and also to those who have failed to ex- ercise their voting franchiee during the past several years. In the event such lefters are returned because of inability of the postal forces to malke delivery, such names will be stricken from the voting list. 1a cach instance a return card will be enclosed with the letter for the con- venience of the voter. Willard A. Hunt and R. G. Fitzpatrick, repub- lican and democratic registrars ‘n the second voting district, were named a committee of two to draft a copy of the proposed letter and then confcr with the chairmen of the town committees. The two reg- istrars will also arrange for the sub- sequent printing of the letters and the return post cards. which will then be turned over to the regis- trars of the various voting districts. The greatest difficulty /in the re- vision of the list will be experienced in the first voting district, it is be- lieved, due to the fact that between four and five hundred persons who either are deceased or have moved from the city are included in the list. This was brought out at the city election two years ago when a can- didate for the council had several hundred campaign letters returned undelivered. To Urge Increased Remuneration Both Mr. Dutton -and Mr. Bigour- ncy expressed the opinion that, un. der the new method of handling the lists and with the large amount of work involved in inaugurating the new systeni, the remuneration of the registrars should be increased. At i the present time, each of the eight registrars 18 paid $100 a year. This the polls in addition to the compil- ling of the lists.
