ELECTIONEERING BY TELEPHONE
IDEA TRIED IN ENGLAND Press Association —By Telegraph —Copyright LONDON, February 19. (Received February 20, at 11 a.m.) Major J. S. Courtault, M.P., initiated a new experiment by addressing his electorate by telephone. He spoke from his house, and his voice was amplified through loudspeakers in Chichester. It is expected that the idea will be developed in elections to save members of the House of Commons rushing over their constituencies and spending only a few minutes at each meeting.
