Straw Poll

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

There may have been a considerable inaccuracy in the Presidential poll conducted today by the CRIMSON, due to one simple feature of the ballot: the blank marked "Name". A student voting for Dewey in a straw poll will willingly sign his name to his ballot; one who would otherwise vote for Wallace may refuse to when the ballot is not secret. And he may have excellent reason.

I'm sure the CRIMSON dislikes the record of intimidation of Progressives which leads many Wallace supporters to conceal their opinions. I'm even surer that those who made up the poll recognize that such intimidation exists. If that is so, why didn't the CRIMSON, in the interest of accuracy, allow students to cast unsigned votes?
