New Balloting by Mail System
Will Name 'sl Committeemen
CHANGE TO GIVE
LARGER NUMBER
CHANCE TO VOTE
COUNTY PMA CHAIRMAN
SCOTT CITES ADVANTAGES
OF ELECTING COMMUNITY
COMMITTEEMEN UNDER
MAIL BALLOT SSTEM.
Preparations for balloting by mail
to elect next year’s Production and
Marketing Administration commun
ity committeemen are underway at
the Roosevelt County PMA office
following the state PMA commit
tee’s recent decision to conduct 1951
elections in this manner.
Chairman Walter Scott of the
Roosevelt county committee says
that he believes this method of
holding elections will have many
advantages, although it will mean
additional work for present PMA
committeemen and employees.
“In past years the turnout at
community election meetings hasn’t
always been as large as desirable,”
Scott explained, “sometimes it’s
weather, sometimes it’s harvesting,
or it may be time to move stock or
even go to a bull sale —there are
many things that prevent a man
from attending meetings in the
fall.”
“But with mail ballots —why
every eligible person in Roosevelt
county can participate in this year’s
election and do it without putting
himself out a bit. either. The ballot
will come to his mail box, complete
with instruction for marking it and
mailing or delivering it back to
the County PMA office. Voting
shouldn’t take a farmer more than
20 minutes - provided he’s been
giving some thought to which of
his neighbors he wants on next
year’s committee.”
But between now and the bal
loting lies considerable work, Scott
said. First the county committee,
with the help of the present com
munity committees, must name
nominating committees for each

community. When these committees
complete their list of nominees, bal
lots and instructions must be pre
pared a” 1 then - biggest job of
all - p oallot and allied material
must be mailed to every eligible
voter.
How many people does that
mean? A good question, Mr. Scott
says, but difficult to answer right
now. He points out that there are
768 farmers signed up for this
year’s Agricultural Conservation
program, about 500 producers are
eligible for wheat price support, 325
producers have crop, insurance con
tracts with the FCIC. Total those
figures, eliminate the duplications,
and you have a start on the list of
eligible voters. In addition, all those
persons - owner, operator tenant
and sharecropper - eligible to par
ticipate in any other support pro
gram offered by the Department of
Agriculture through PHA are elig
ible to vote. Also eligible are per
sons who participated in the AC
Program in 1947 1948 or 1949 and
are not taking part this year but
are carrying out at least one con
servation pratice listed in the 1950
Montana Handbook.
“Maybe that will give you some
idea of the job we have to do here
in preparing the mailing list for
this election,” Scott concluded. “Un
til we get it made up we won’t
know just how many people are
eligible to vote —but we hope every
one whom we mail a ballot will
complete it and get it back to us
promptly.”
