keeping pace with the growth and
development of the city. A report
sent yesterday by Lynn H. Fox. sec
retary of the association to the ma
tional committee at New York,

throught the same period last year.

ing increased and at present about
100 persons are taking the "Y"

not been quite so large as during

a longer period of time.
Under the direction of Physical

has reached the highest point in its
popularity and is daily used by
dozens of persons. Business men

ELECTION COST
WAS ABOUT $500
TO CITY ALONE
Campaign Expenditures of
Two Committees Proba-
bly, Added $4,000 to this
Figure.

The treasury of the city of AL
buquerque will probably have
about $500 less cash on hand when
the costs of the recall election are
paid. That will be the expense to
the city only. 1t being likely that
each campaign committee spent in
the neighborhood of $4,000. Many
people took a vacation on election
day, which would make the total
expense still greater.
: The city had to pay about $50 for
the meals of judges. An additional
$50 goes to the judges of election.
Polling places cost $40. The prep
aration of the registration lists
between s125 and $3.50.
1t required an outlay Of $50 to
get election equipment out to the
voting places, return it. and then
arrange for cleaning the polling
places. Extra policemen cost SIS.
The printing of the election no.
tees cost $23.S4 while the regis
tration notices added another $8
in printing expense. The bill for
printing the ballots has not been
received, but it will probably be
about 800.
