M’MULLAN ISSUES ELECTION OPINIONS RALEIGH, Nov. 5.—UP)—Attor ney General Harry McMullan rul ^d in a digest of opinions today that “independents” may register and vote in general elections, and ihat conviction of a federal of fense does not bar a person from voting in North Caronna. Four of the opinions related to •lection laws while others had to do with a variety of regulations auch as double-office holding, banks, schools and school laws. Referring to elections he gave these opinions: While a person who has been •onvicted or confessed his guilt in •pen court of a crime punishable by imprisonment in the state’s penitentiary may not vote in North Carolina unless his citizen ship has been restored, a person Who has been convicted of a fed eral offense in a federal court •nd sentenced to the federal pri son is not thereby deprived of his privilege to vote. While the statutes do not author ize the registration and voting of an independent in a primary elec tion, they do provide for the regis tration and voting of an independ ent in a general election. A voter cannot vote for the nom inee for president of one party and _ for the nominee for vice presi dent of another party. When the voter marks the presidential bal lot, he is either voting for the de mocratic presidential electors or for the republican presidential electors. The names of these elec tors are not printed on the ballot, but are represented by the candi dates for their party. A notary public who is also a candidate in the general election is disqualified to administer oaths to persons desiring to vote by means of absentee ballots. Other opinions: A bank is not required to keep deposits for every person who of fers money for this purpose but may decline to do business with those whom, for any reason, it does not wish to serve, and it may close an account at any time by tendering to the depositor the amount due and by declining to receive more. The positions of township con stable, fire chief, and chief of police are all offices within the meaning of the provision of the North Carolina constitution prohi biting double office holding. There fore, one person may hold only one such position at any one time, j To be entitled to enroll as a student in the public schools for ihe first year course, a child must be six years of age on or before October 1 of the year in which he desires to enroll and must enroll during the first month of the school £ year. 1 Before a county board of educa tion can sell a county schoolhouse, ^ school house site, or any other ‘ county school property at private ‘ sale, it must first sell the proper ty at public auction after notice, then, if the board finds that the 1 price offered is inadequate, it may re.iect the bid and sell at private sale if the price received at said private sale is greater than the amount offered at the public sale. 1 -V Adam And f alien Man 1 Lesson-Sermon Subject \ i “Adam and Fallen Man” was ths < subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Christian Science churches and j societies yesterday. _ ‘ The Golden Text was from Ro mans 6:14. “Sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not Under the law, but under grace.” r Among the citations which com- ] prised the Lesson-Sermon were ^ the following from the Bible: ‘‘And . God said, let us make man in our ' image, after our likeness . . . , So God created man in his own ; image, in the image of God creat- i ed he him; male and female creat ed he them. But there went up a mist from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground. And the Lord God formed man of the i dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Gen. 1: 26 to 27, Gen. 2: 6,7). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Ed dy : ‘But there went up a mist from 1 the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.’ The second Chapter of Genesis contains a state ment of this material view of God and the universe, a statement which is the exact opposite of scientific truth as before recorded. The substance, life, intelligence, truth, and love, which constitute Deity, are reflected by His crea- , tion. Man and woman as rnpvis. tent and eternal with God forever reflect, in glorified quality, the infinite Fa'ther - Mother God” (Pages 521, 516). -V FAVORS ROOSEVELT PARIS, Nov. 5. —(A5)— France’s leading conservative newspaper, “Figaro” said today it favored , the election of President Roosevelt and gave as its reason its fear that Isolation otherwise might creep back into American policy.
