Some people have made a mistake
in calling Amendment No. y the l2-
mill amendment 1t is not a l2.mill
amendment any more than it is a one
mill amendment or a 3-mill amend
ment or an S-mill amendment, simply
because it provides that the people
may vote any number of mills from
one to twelve. In other words it
makes the number of mills optional
with twelve as the limit.
