By GOP Leader On County Registrations Visited, Kreischer
Last-Minute Smear Attempt by Gleason Brothers
Backfires As Commissioners Obtain True Facts
The Gleason brothers aren't
telling the truth in their state.
ments about errors in voter reg-
istration lists in Cambria County.
Such is a statement by County
Commissioners Thomas A Owens
and Pat Farrell, who have at
least 34 signed affidavits to back
them up, and who have turned
the whole matter over to the
district attorney for action
Charges were made
week by the Gleason boys
that a “so-called” house-to-house
investigation in the Ninth Ward,
Johnstown, showed that 218 per-
sons either had moved from the
listed addresses, had registered
twice, or had died The Glea-
son's frst Heutenant John D,
Hamara, certified by signed oath
that he had made the canvass
and found the facts as presenled
to the commissioners—and that
said names should be removed
from the list
However, the
did not take this
vestigation of their own, the re-
sults of which were announced
this week, and which make Mr.
Hamara liable for commonwealth
; of swearing to a false
staternent and perhaps other
oounts
The Gleasons are Atty. Andrew
J., untitled head of the GOP in
PATTON, PA.
