! Remember, if we do not vote that
bond issue Tuesday and take advantage
of the liberal offer of Uncle Sam and
the State of Idaho, we will lose the
road for all times to come and what IS
more we will have to send our money
to Boise to assist in paying the interest
on the bond. From a purely selfish
viewpoint you should vote for the bonds
Remember, road or no road we pay our
share of the interest at Boise. The state
money is going to be spent on good roads
in Idaho, we have the opportunity to
take advantage of it and if we do not
we are certainly practicing poor bust
ness judgment. Vote the bonds and get
the federal and state aid.
