place in said town, and also at the regular meeting place
of the District Heights Commission, a notice of such
registration, which said notice shall state the place where
such registration shall be conducted.

(H) All citizens of the United States who have attained
the age of twenty-one (21) years, and who have been
bona fide residents of said town for at least one (1) year
prior to their registration, shall be eligible to register,
and after registering shall be eligible to vote at all town
elections so long as they remain bona fide residents of said
town.

(I) Said Board of Election Supervisors shall determine
the qualifications and right of each applicant to register
by asking such applicant the following questions, which
shall be answered under oath by such applicant: (1) Are
you a citizen of the United States? (2) Have you attained
the age of twenty-one years? (3) Have you been a bona
fide resident of the Town of District Heights for at least
one year? (4) In what ward do you reside? Should the
answers of such applicant be in the affirmative to the first
three questions, it shall be the duty of the Board to allow
such applicant to register. But should such applicant re-
fuse to answer all such questions, or should the answer of
such applicant be in the negative to any of the first three
questions, then such applicant shall not be allowed to
register. Should any applicant answer any such questions
falsely, he shall be guilty of the crime of perjury, and sub-
ject to the penalties provided by the law of the State of
Maryland. Any applicant who feels that he has been
aggrieved by any ruling of said Board as to his eligibility
to register may appeal to the Circuit Court for Prince
George's County, which court shall determine such appeal.

(J) It shall be the duty of said Board of Election Super-
visors to make a record of all applicants who present them-
selves to register, and a record of all persons who have
registered, and a record of the reasons why such applicant
has not been allowed to register, which said records shall
be signed by each member of said Board and sworn to be-
fore the Chairman Commissioner or the Secretary Com-
missioner, or before a Justice of the Peace or other officer
or person (including a Notary Public) having authority
to administer oaths in Prince George's County. Such
records, when not being actually used by said Board, shall
be turned over to said District Heights Commission to be
kept among the town records. Such records shall be open
to public inspection.
