violated a section of the code which prohibits officers of municipality from entering into contracts of this magnitude without first submitting the matter to the qualified electors for ap- proval at the polls. Certain citizens who considered the expenditure unwar- ranted threatened to apply for an in- junction restraining the council from executing notes for the payment of the truck. and in order to avoid further complications members of that body de- cided to hold up the matter. It IS thought that a satisfactory adjudica- ton of the controversy can besreached. and that all obstacles which now stand in the way of the purchase of the truck will eventually be removed

INTEREST cENTERS ON ROAD BOND MEETING.

According to expressions heard in various parts of the county, since the announcement of the board of super visors that they would meet in Tomb stone on April sth to hear taxpayers on the question of a bond issue. it is believed that many will be in favor of the move.
 The matter is of especial importance at this time since the provision for special tax levy to raise the neces- sary work for the unemployed failed to pass the legislature. It follows that under the law raising money for road work. other than the regular 10 per cent annual road levy, the only alternative is for bond issue to pro- vide the money in quick time.
 This will be left up to the taxpayers according to the board. although un- der the law they have the option of fixing the amount of a bond issue and calling an election.
 However. they desire expression from the people of the county first and for that purpose called a repre- sentative meeting
 It is expected that representatives from all sections of the county will be present to attend the meeting. Ex- pressions are wanted as to just what amount should be embodied in the bond issue and exactly where it shall be expended.
 The present highway commission have placed all the money of the last $1.000,0O0 issue at work and expect to have the work now under way com pleted by the time their term of once expires, and according to Supervisor C. M. Roberts another commission will probably be appointed to carry on the work under the new bond is. sue, should it be authorized and carry

 PLANNED TO AID ROADS

WASHINGTON. D. C, March % The war finance corporation is consid ering floating large bond issue. prob- ably of s200. 1000 600. within a few weeks to provide funds for railroads and to meet any other demands on fhe corporation. The interest con templated is 3-4 per cent.
 The bonds would run for a year. or possibly year and half. according to tentative plans
 They would be sold privately 10 the banks and big business interests in order to minimize interference with the popular Victory Liberty loan cam paign.
 The bonds would be exempt from all taxes except estate, inheritance, excess profits, war profits and surtax- es, and interest on s5O00 owned by any single interest would be entirely tax exempt The corporation has au- thority to sell its bonds below par.
 May Issue Big Amount
 By law the war finance corporation may issue up to 5000. .O0O. 900 of bonds secured by collateral taken in conne-- ton with advances already made by the corporation. No bonds have been issued heretofore, but prospective large advances to railroads brings the corporation within exhaustion Of its half billion appropriation.
