MUST FILE EXPENSE ACCOUNT
BY JULY 20.

This year candidates for county,
city and legislative offices will have
to file their expense accounts both
before and after the date of the pri-
mary election, under the provisions
of the new law.
1t is provided that all such candi-
dates for a party nomination must
file sworn statements of their expen-
ditures fifteen days before and thirty
days after the date of the primary,
making it imperative that the filing
of the first statement be attended to
before July 20.

the first chance for a tryout. Ac-
cording to it's terms, any successful
candidate failing to file loses his
nomination, the candidate receiving
the next highest vote and complying
with the provisions being declared
the nominee. The same applies to
the case of a candidate exceeding
the amount of money he can spend,
that is allotted at maximum to his
Office.

Chapters in Central Kentucky in the
work of making hospital supplies for
one base hospital unit is now a Ger
tainty. Bourbon, Madison, Scott,

pected to be obtained as soon as the
proper representations are made to
these Chapters.
