INJUNCTION HA[TS
SPECIAL ELECTION
IN PHILADELPHIA
Citizens of Quaker City Will Not
Be Permitted to Vote
Tomorrow
By Associated Press

Philadelphia, March S0.-The State
Supreme Court to-day issued an IN
junction against the city Of Philadel-
phia from holding the special election
tomorrow on the proposed loan of
$12,900,O00 and also declared invalid
the election last November authorlz-
ing a loan of $8,600,000. All city and
county officials having anything TO do
with the matter are enJoined from
holding the election and all officials
having to do with the disbursing of the
SS,600,000 loan authorized by the cleo
ton last November are enjoined. The
decree of the court was read from the
bench by Justice Mestrezat. Justice
Elkin dissented. Justice Mestrezat
will file written opinion later.
Taxpayer Causes Action
The action was brought by Fred
erick T. Mcguire, taxpayer. The
principal question was whether that
part of the city's debt assumed by
the Board of Education when 1t be-
came a separate body under the school
code can be legally deducted from
the municipal bonded Indebtedness. 1t
was held by the applicant for the in
junction that when the $500, 600 loan
was created the borrowing capacity of
the city was about $2,000,000, while at
present the borrowing capacity is only
s6,729,30S, or much less than the
amount of the proposed new loan.
Counsel for the petitioner asserted
that the debt of more than $6,0OO,OOO
contracted for school purposes and as
sumed by the Board of Education, still
was an obligation of the city. The city,
it was declared, would be liable in the
case of nonjudgment of the bonds at
maturity and therefore this indebted
ness must be included in the gross liza
bilities of the citw. 1t was further
argued that the proposed loan could
not be made, taking into consideration
the unnegotiated $S,600,000 loan,
which must be regarded in the present
debts of the city.
Michael ]. Ryan, the city solicitor,
opposed the injunction when the case
came up for argument last week, de-
claring both the authorized loan and
the proposed new loan to be within
the law.
