REFERENDUM PETITION
WILL Be RESENTED TO
MAYOR TUESDAY yMORNIN 6

The referendum petition. which has
been circulated for some time in the
city. to have an election called for
the purpose Of submitting amendments
to the charter Of Ardmore will be pre-
sented TO the mayor, Tuesday morn
ing The mayor will then take the
matter up with the city attorney if
the latter holds the petition TO be i'm
full conformity with all legal forms
and requirements, election viii be
held This statement is authorized
by information conveyed by Mayor
Freeman to II. B. Fell commander
Of the George II. Anderson Post, Am
erican Legioa, and Judge Eddleman.
According to law, an election must
be called within 25 days from the
date Of filing Of the petition, with the
mayor. II was intended TO file the
referendum petition Friday night, but
/ IN view OF the fact that the general
primary election is close at hand,
and inasmuch as the legality Of the
petition will be safeguarded by hav-
! ing the proposition voted upon at that
time. it was decided to wait until
Tuesday, TO file the document, thus
doing away with the expense of a
special election which would cost the
taxpayers Of the city at least 81 600
It Is said.
If the city attorney approves at
least the legal status Of the petition,
the matter will be voted upon at
the regular primary election August
Srd.
1t is also thought that the vote
will be more general on that date as
many people would probably fail to
vote at a spe cial election, and on
the other hand will be at the polls
early August Bird to cast ballot for
their favorites. In this manner the
vote on the petition will come nearer
expressing the unanimous sentiment
Of the people of Ardmore.
