PROTEST TOO LATE
TO stop BUILDING,
&. .SAYSSChO0L BOARD

board of Center township contend that
permission for the issuance of bonds
for the new school house has already
been granted and that a remonstrance
will not affect the sale of bonds to be

ments made Friday.
In May, 1919, the state board gave
it's permission for Center township tc
issue 100000 worth of school bonds,
it is said. These were never issued
because of conditions existing which
made the building of a school house
at that time inexpedient- Since that
time the statute governing the issu-
ance of bonds has been changed, Civ
ing the power of granting permission
TO the state board of tax commits sion
ers.
The question to be decided, town
ship officials state, is whether the
permission granted in 1919 is still &C
tive, or whether this was counter
manded by the change of statute.
Members of the board state that
they have met at intervals to fix dates
of future meetings, but had delay ed
bringing the point to an issue until
building conditions had resumed a
form of normally. This they contend
! Is now here, and the need for the
school Is such as to warrant them pro

board of tax commissioners, Friday
