MILLAGE LEVY FOR STATE
BUILDING FUND MAY NOT

TO DECIDE QUESTION SOON

Meeting to Be Held in Cedar Rapids,
Sept. 7 and S-1uiIdings Erected by
Fund Are Now About Completed
Other News.

Cedar Rapids, Aug 2S.-Shall the
millage tax of Iowa be abandoned?
The question will be answered at a
special meeting of the state board of
education, which will be held at Cedar
Rapids Sept. Z and s.
The millage tax was levied by the
Legislature ten years ago for the pur-
pose Of creating fund to be used in
the erection of new buildings and other
improvements at the state university,
the State Agricultural College and the
state Teachers College. The fund is
created by levying a fifth of a mill for
Iowa and Ames and tenth of a mil!
for Cedar Falls.
The buildings which are needed for
the completion of these three institu-
lions are nearly all completed, but
there still remains much work to be
done.
The board is now considering the adj
visibility of asking the next legislature
to continue the millage tax for period
Of Ave years The fund thus created in
the extra five years will. in the opinion
OF many board members, be sufficient
to make the three Iowa institutions the
most complete in the middle west.
