CITY ID SET DATE OF . FNE-MILL ELECTION
Successful Passage of Five Mill Tax of Vital Im-
 pOrtance to City

All the city commissioners are waiting for now before placing the five-mill tax questions before the voters, is the return to work of Commissioner J. R. Hornady, who has been i'll with influenza for week or so
 As the city makes it's annual tax levy in May. basing the levy on funds the municipality will need for it's annual ex- penses, 1t is highly desirable that the five-mill tax matter be disposed of be- fore that time.
 Present plans are to call the five-mih tax election early in April If possible, for the election must be advertised, accord ing to law, for thirty days. before it can be held.
 The date of the election will be chosen at the next meeting of the board and other matters appertaining to the elee- ton will then be taken care of by the commissioners When this is done anu the election called the prescribed thirty days will end some time during the first week in April about when time the elec- ton will be held.
 
 more or less inconsequsntal the city Is lnow living on the three-mill tax Tor schools, the five-miii tax for general ex- [ Ienses, and some of the bonds outstand- ing are being cared for by the two-mlh tax going into the sinking fund. If the five-mill tax election carries the city can go forward with the list of mn provements and betternlents that ths public has been demanding for years But this election must be settled before the municipality makes it's annual tax levy 1 in May, toward the latter part of that month The successful passage of the i've | mill tax will mean more to the city than the $550, GOO annual revenue it secures. It | Literally will mean something like Stoo- coo annual new revenue, in this way when the new school buildings are erected | and occupied Birmingham will save m Trent and repairs on the preesnt schoot housing something more than $lVo'oVV each year. There are other departments l that will be so benefited that similar amount now being expended Will pc saved for other uses. In short by voting to get about half million revenue, the city will get quarters of million
