Intelligence Required to Use Kansas Ballot
Choices
Voter Must Be Able to Read If He Is to Indicate
"Ballots in the form used in Kansas are in reality a moderate intelligence test of the vote," said Prof. F. Gustavsson, who is the political science at the University of Kansas, in a radio talk this morning. "In Kansas and the dozen other states, you must have two date rams on the ballot; the voter must be able to read in order to locate the offices and the particular men whose party name he desires to vote for."
"The Kerns ballo is arranged in the party block system first adopted in Massachusetts in 1893. Under this plan, all candidates for a given office are arranged in a single group or block nation (and a small party emblem in New York) and a square within which to make the mark designating choice
No Intelligence Necessary
"In most of the other states the names are arranged in the so-called list, with the names for each party, and the names of the various candidates for a given office."
"The Indians type of bailout but not always, has in connection with the party name, a distinctive emblem of the Democratic Party. The voter is the ability to recognize between the wing-spread edge of the Republican party or the Tampa Bay area."

Patterson, who can vote to vote a ballot of this form "Property. Perhaps it may shock our pride, but think of it! Voting by pictures, when the vote selects his representatives.
"As a matter of fact, politicians everywhere fought the introduction of the bill that would finally adopted the plan, party emblems were omitted. Apparently this was fatal to democracy. Tammany Hall had voters with a stencil cut from oilied paper, with holes cut where it was desirable. Marks. Even this did work, for it appeared that many of the voters put their votes on too many too many ballots. Hence, New York was finally persuaded to put the picture back oppose each party designation."
Professor Guild pointed out that in Kansas the voter is required to put a cross mark with a light of the right of the candidate voted for. In some states, any pencil or even ink may be used. The voter is provided to make the "X" mark.
