BUYERS SHY AT
 ARIZONA BONDS


 PHOENIX. Aug. PA serious obstacle to the sale Of Maricopa ooun- tvs s4.00o.9e0 highway bond issue has arisen in the form Of objections on the part of attorneys for the bond buyers to accept the bonds by reason Of their expressed belief that the bond election, held May IT last, was not in accordance with the state consitiu' ton.
 At the election the taxpayers voted to accept the indebtedness of special road districts Numbers l and ?. yo- ting at the same time s4,O9o.G00 for highway construction Cousel for the bond buyers desires the board Of su- peryiso-s 10 set aside s11OG00 of the s4 900 .0C0 issue 10 retire bonds Of these special road districts. An opin- i7n rendered today by attorney gem ersl Wiley E. Jones holds that such action could nt. legally be taken by the supervisors. and that all ot the si .010.oO0 issue must be expended fo. the purposes for which it was voted. Another contention ot the bond buy CTS is that the bond issue B Illegal in tha, the constitutional limitation -f i per cent ct the assessed valuation .s exceeded.
 Tn placing the bond issue before 1 the people the supervisors agreed tha. the county should assume all the un- paid inieb:edness of Specia. road dis t-icts No. and ?. amounting 10 some Slle.0cO. Now the question arises as to whether it was intended that the Sll0.0O1 should be deducted rem ihe : s4.e000o0 or whether the county
 eoiid handle this indebtedness iI some other way.
 The attorney general inciines tf
 he belief that the election vas he'd
