NORWO0D FAy0RS
 BOND AMENDMENT
FOUCHTITTWO YEARS AGO
FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS OBJECTIONABLE FEA-
 TURES ARE REMOVED.

Little Rock, Aug. 2O.-Former At torney General Hal L. Norwood has addressed letter to Chas. E. Taylor, mayor of Little Rock and chairman of the executive committee of the Great CT Arkansas Association, in which he endorses the municipal bond amend ment. Two years ago, while attorney general, MT. Norwood vigorously fought the amendment. He states that the new proposed amendment is properly safeguarded, and will prove highly beneficial to the people. Mr. Norwood states that if the bill was adopted by such a majority as it vas two years ago, with the objections it then contained now removed, the amendment should be practically unanimously adopted
 Mr. Norwood cites the constitu- tions of all other southern states, showing that they permit bond issues, and referring to the matter of per hitting every voter to cast ballot on bond issues. as specified in the propos- ed amendment, he states that this is just, for to limit the voting to the owners of the property effected would restrict the ballot to few. Mr. Nor wood states that the man who owns no property today may be the owner of much property in 15 years, while the man who today owns large tracts of real estate, may own nothing at the end of that time. The bonds, when issued, will be distributed over long, CT term of years than this, and will permit all sorts of changes of condi- tions among the property owners so that no one man, or set of men, will have to bear the burden all the time.
 The writer of this letter to Mayor Taylor is not the only man of promi- hence in Arkansas who opposed the measure two years ago, who is strong for it now All favored bond issues by cities, but all wanted them prop erly safeguarded. The framers of the amendment now being submitted call ed into consultation several of the most prominent attorneys of Arkan- sas and with their assistance prepar- ed what is considered an ideal bill
 Mr Norwood says that the farmers ought to be even more strong for it than the town folks, for it is the first time the farmers have had a chance to show their appreciation for the good things the town folks have done for them in the years past.
