AND HOW TO FIGHT THEM. John Hall BY J. SEYMOUR LLOYD, Of the Middle Temple, Barrister-at-Law. WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY A. E. SOUTHALL, Secretary, The National Union of Conservative and Constitutional class, 7-3-31 ALA ها" The chief aim of this book is to deal in a practical way with the problems which constantly present themselves for solution to those who take an active part in political work. 66 It is far from my intention to claim the position of a legal text-book for so modest a volume, but everyone who participates in electoral contests, whether as candidate, or election agent, or voluntary worker, must needs have the law ever before him. With a view to minimize the tediousness of hunting up sections or schedules," I have compiled an appendix in which the election sections of the Corrupt and Illegal Practices Prevention Acts and other legislation immediately bearing upon the subject of Parliamentary elections will be found grouped under appropriate headings in alphabetical order. I have not considered it desirable to insert many specimen forms. The Conservative Central Office supplies an excellent series of everything that is necessary, at a price at which the printing alone could not possibly be done locally. Moreover, the accuracy and efficiency of the forms so supplied have been thoroughly tested in practice. The central organisations of other political parties perform a similar service for their adherents. My thanks are due to friends on both sides in politics, and to various written authorities consulted, but they are especially due to Mr. A. E. Southall, who, with characteristic kindness, has shown an interest which has been fruitful in suggestions during the preparation of these pages, although for the opinions expressed I am, of course, alone responsible. 4, Brick Court, Temple, E.C.
