TWO CITIES MAY
BE UNITED BY AN
AUGUST ELECTION
BradentOwn and Manatee Seek
to Effect "a More Perfect Un-

Bradentown, July 19.-Citizens of
Manatee and Bradentown, at an cleo
ton to be held August Is, will decide
whether the two cities shall become
one or whether they will continue to
exist as two corporations. Cards
mailed TO citizens of both municipal
Ities showed a large majority in fav-
6r of adopting the name of Manatee
for the city if the consolidation is Of
fected and the act of the Legislature
authorizing the election provides this.
Under the law the proposal must
be ratified by majority of the voters
of each city. If one fails to ratily
there will be no consolidation
There remains only a month for
the campaign in favor of and against
the consolidation. Those opposing it
are basing their fight largely upon
the change in name while those fav-
0rable are pointing out the good to
be derived from the union. The new
city of Manatec would be the third
largest on the west coast.
The election will be the first locally
that women have had an opportunity
TO participate in and under provisions
of the special law they may vote with
out paying poll tax.

Charlotte county is having troubles
Of it's own. The board of county COM
missioners. appointed by Gov. Hardee
shortly after the recent legislature
carved Charlotte from DeSoto, has
he'd several meetings here, the coun-
ty seat, to discuss it's welfare but the
loard has been bolked at every turn
because of lack of funds.
The legislature authorized the COM
missioners to issue five year, six per
cent time warrants for the purpose of
meeting expenses necessary for the
county to begin to paddle its own
canoe. The amount of the warrants
to be issued, however, is limited to
one half of one per cent of the coun-
tvs total assessment. The county so
far has no tax books, and the commits
sicners are unable to determine what
amount of warrants they may issue
and, as a consequence. the treasury 10
empty. A rough estimate, based on the
tax rcll, when Charlotte was a part
OF DeSoso county, places. the amount
lat $500 which is barely enough to
ray for record and other books and
office furniture which the commits
sioners have purchased.

House OverideS
Presidents Veto
RESOLUTION ORDERING REDUC
TION OF ARMY BY 175,0OO
MEN is PASSED.

The house late Saturday overrode
President Wilson's veto of the resolu-
tion ordering a reduction of the army
by 175,000 men.
The vote to override the veto was
271 ayes and 16 noes.
The veto was sent to the house ear
her in the day. The president declar-
ed that with only It's 900 men, the or
ganization of the army determined on
by congress when it passed the army
reorganization bill, could not be car
ried out.
The president in his veto message
said that world conditions did not war
rant the reduction of the army.
Quoting the resolution as restricting
the enlisted strength of the army to
175,O0O the president says.
Wilson Cites Reasons.
"No provision is made in the resolu-
tion for the preservation of any pro-
portionate strength in the combatant
corps of the army and mere discon-
tinuance of enlistment would for a
long time, preserve the staff corps dis
proportionately enlisted and the COM
batant corps insufficiently manned to
maintain the instruction and training
which ought to be assured if an army of
S175,000 men is to be efficient in pro-
portion to its aggregate numbers.
"On the fourth day of July, 1920,
signed a bill passed by the present
congress, providing for the reorgani-
zation Of the army. Because of the
profoundly disturbed conditions of the
world and in order that full benefit
might accrue to the people of the
United States from the lessons of the
World war as to what, under modern
conditions, is required to be the nu-
cleus of an efficient army, the war de-
partment had recommended an army
of approximately 100000 men. The
congress, after prolonged considera-
tion, determined to authorize and did
authorize, the reorganization of the
army on the basis of an enlisted
strength of approximately 280,OOO
men, including in the organization
new arms like the air service and the
chemical warfare service, the use of
which were developments of the war
and provision for which is necessary
addition to the prewar strength of the
army.
Reduction Called Unjustified
'The act authorized for the first
time in our history a tactic organiza-
tion of the army, resting upon divi-
sions as tactical units and required the
training of the National Guard and
the organized reserve in territorial
areas of the United States in posi-
tion with the divisions of the regular
army. At that time, congress plainly
regarded the provision then made as
the minimum which would provide for
the added arms and new duties i'm
posed on the. army and for that eff
ciency which the peacetime army of
the United States should have as the
nucleus of mobilization in the event
of a national emergency
II regret that am not able to see in
the condition of the world at large or
in the needs of the United States any
such change as would justify restric-
tion upon that minimum which is pro-
posed by the house joint resolution"
