polls of any state in the Union Here 746 percent of the eligible voters cst their ballots at the 1948 election it was revealed Colorado Tn second place was three per cent lower That is truly something to be proud of It shows a civic interest that is typical of the state with the finest schools the highest percentage of home owners and the most churches But lest we be content to rest upon our laurels perhaps we should take note of the fact that Sweden’s last election brought out 82 per cent of the voters and France and Italy both went over 80 per cent The more people we can get out to vote
