Italian Voting Proceclures
Described by Rome Visitor
By MARGARET SCHULER
Roma You must vote in
Italy if you are eligible. If
you don't you must explain
why you did not, and if you
haven't a good reason to give
the mayor, you receive a "did
not vote" remark. This is
entered for -five years on a
"good conduct" certificate
This would be like having to
list traffic violations on a car
license in the U.S.
As over 90 per cent of the
Italian voters are expected to
go to the polls today Sun
day, May 25, and. Monday,
Reception Honors
Medford Woman
Mrs. Clayton Walker, Med
ford, district deputy oracle of
the Royal Neighbors of Amer
ica, was honored at a recep
tion given by Mistletoe camp
May 28. Mrs. Walker will
leave June 22 for Los Ange
les to attend the supreme
camp convention.
The serving table was laid
with a lace cloth and centered
with an arrangement of pur
ple and white Canterbury
bells, these being the lodge
colors. ,
Members from Central
Point, Ashland and Jackson
ville attended, and each camp
presented Mrs. Walker gifts.
She spoke briefly. Mrs. Le-
nore Broili, Ashland, a past
ttate supervisor, also spoke.
Mrs. Carl Pearson, pro
gram chairman, presented
Mrs. Frank Ward of Central
Point who sang, the Jackson
ville camp presented a stunt
imitating the television pro
gram, "To Tell the Truth."
Mrs. Floyd Bewley played
piano selections.
. The serving committee was
Mrs. Thomas Mee, Mrs. Bew
ley, Mrs. Pearl Miller and
Miss Blanche Arnold.
Dartmoor, perhaps the best-
known of all British mow
lands, covers 200 square
miles.
Annual Banquet
Held Last Night
The annual mother-daugh
ter banquet of Zion Lutheran
church was held last evening
at First Methodist church.
Mrs. Bruce Braaten was toast-
mistress.
The invocation was given
by Mrs. Irven litreim. Mrs.
William Gates presented
awards to the oldest grand
mother present, Mrs. Carl
Fiehtner; youngest mother,
Mrs. Floyd Pawlowski, and to
the youngest daughter, Ellen
Nunley, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Walter Nunley.
Mrs. Bennett Austin pre
sented life membership
awards to Mrs. Augusta
Moore, who wss a member of
Zion Lutheran church's first
confirmation class, to Kirs.
Lillian Twite and Mrs. Wen
dell Mattson. Mrs. William
Gates accepted the award on
behalf of Mrs. Moore, who
was unable to attend.
Miss Verna Cingcede, Bible
instructor in the county pub
lie schools, presented an ob
ject lesson. '
A group of Methodist wom
en assisted with the banquet.
May 26, it must work. Returns
will not be in until Wednes
day, night, and because of the
complexities of the election
laws, the actual results will
not be known before June.
The entire process of vot
ing is quite different from
that in the states. There are
no primaries; the Senate and
Chamber seat elections are
separate. Minimum age for
voting is 21, but to vote for
senators, a person must be
25. Many candidates run for
both Senate and Chamber.
There is no limit to the num
ber of constituencies in which
a candidate may present him
self. Here are some of the laws
covering Italian voting:
Persons - or organizations
caught giving gifts in the week
before elections are subject to
jail terms up to five years,
and fines, up to $3,200.
A person, threatening his
relatives or family, to influ
ence voting, is subject to a
five year jail term.
Sale of alcohol is banned
on election day.
Persons voting under false
names are given sentences.
Election frauds, for influ
encing voting a certain way,
are punished by jail terms.
One law forbids anyone to
carry sticks into the polling
booths.
And to protect state prop
erty, voters not returning pen
cils given to mark their bal
lots are fined 3000 lira or $5.
Elaborate precautions are
taken to insure order inside
and out. Anyone disturbing
the polls is given five year
jail terms.
Religious ministers, public
officials or other persons in
public office trying to force
voters to support a certain
candidate gets up to three
years jail term.
Bsllots ' are compiled in
screened booths like the U.S.,
and handed sealed, to vote
tellers. Two representstives
of each party check on the
tellers' work.
Today is quiet in Rome.
The noise of campaigning is
over, the tons of leaflets hsve
been swept away, and not
knowing that thousands of
voters are deciding whether
Italy will be Christian Demo
cratic or . Communistic, one
would think it is an ordinary
Sunday. '

Men Make Better
Antique Collectors
New York (UPI) Men
make better antiques collec
tors because they don't bargain-hunt
as women do, says
one dealer.
"It takes a man longer to
make up his mind to buy a
particular object," said Mrs.
Mary Muller, one of 125 ex
hibitors in the New York An
tiques Fair. "But in the end
he will get 4 a really good
piece of antique pewter, sil
ver or furniture because he
will pay more. .
"The average woman an
tiques enthusiast has quanti
ty rather than quality as her
goal. She'll gather every pa
perweight or miniature glass
slnoper. she can find and put
them on display, whereas a
man will collect only tha baft
examples in hie field of in
