A resolution urging Governor Albert C. Ritchie to act in the interest of the Jewish voters of Baltimore by changing the coming registration dates has been adopted by the Albert C. Ritchie Civic Club, the only Jewish civic club in the city. It has been forwarded to the Governor by Joel J. Hochman, president of the organization.
Governor Ritchie is considering the calling of a special session of the Legislature to provide for the registration of the Jewish voters by a change or addition to the present registration dates, September 23 and 24 and October 7 and 8, which fall on Rosh Hashonah and Succoth.
