be held here today. The polling place will be located in the old grammar school brick building at the corner of Second avenue and Center street and the polls will be open from eight o'clock this morning until six this eve ming.
 At it's meeting held yesterday noon at the luncheon hour, the board of di- rectors of the Mesa Commercial club passed resolution unanimously fla voring the issue and urging the quali- fled electors to cast a favorable vote at the polls today.
 The Mesa Americanization commit tee at it's meeting held Thursday nlgnu took the same action, casting a unan- imouS vote for the resolution to sup port the bonds, giving as it's reason the fact that the proposed new build ing will help the work of Americaniza- ton.
 Generally the bond issue is favor ably regarded, and while interest ran quite high yesterday in view of the election today, those who have followed the situation closely are confident that the issue will be voted by large ma jority.
 c. C. Urges Memorial
 Repairs on the Apache trail between here and the Roosevelt dam were again taken up at the luncheon business ses- sion of the Commercial club directors yesterday and further action on the work urged. The suggestion of the president that the highway be paved at some future date and be regarded as a permanent Roosevelt memorial was favorably accepted and the direc- tors, while realizing that the possi- bility for such action is yet remote, have endorsed a program that will tend to that end. The matter is to be taken up with other commercial bodies in the state, interested in the highway and the Roosevelt dam.
 Americanization Underway
 Attended by representative commit tees from practically every organiza- tion in the city, the Mesa Americaniza- ton committee was formed at a meet ing held at the Franklin school Thurs day evening. Mrs. J. NJ. Greer was elected chairman of the organization, Miss Merriam as vice chairman, and Miss Dinsmore as secretary and treas urer. The committee endorsed the bond issue election to be held today and outlined in its future work the AmericaniZation of the Spanish speak ing people in the district so far as pos sible. It also passed favorably on a move to arrange a night school for the spanish people above school age who must acquire a certain amount of edu- cation to secure their naturalization papers.
