Cannot Take Vote
on Boxing Bill at
Coming Election

Helena, Aug. 2a.-statements from
Miles City that the county clerk of
Custer county has submitted referendum
No. II, known as the boxing bill, for
approval or rejection by the voters at
a special county bond election called for
September 2, have been called to the
attention of Attorney General S. G.
Ford. He declares such procedure on
the part Of the clerk is legally impos-
sible.
The legislature, in passing the box
ing referendum, provided that it should
be submitted to the people at the next
general election, whether special or reg
ular," Mr.. Ford said. THE measure
cannot be voted upon at any election
which is not statewide in character.
County bond elections are undertaken
upon the initiative of the counties, and
even if all the separate counties held
them on the same day it would not con-
stitute a general election in the mean
ing of the statute"
