Members of the Knox County Mem.
orial Building Commission met at the
office of President H. C. Devin in Mt.
Vernon Tuesday morning at 1O:00
O'Clock. All the members of the board
were present.
After giving some time for the dis
cussion and disposition of strictly rou.
tine business the board received a
committee from the American Legion
council of Knox county. The men,
bers of this committee presented to
the commission request for the erec-
tion Of memorial buildings in Dan
| Vile, Martinsburg and Fredericktown
in addition to one at Mt. Vernon. The
members of the commission took no
action other than to acknowledge the
receipt of the request.
While not generally known to the
public it has been learned that the
proposal to ask for memorial build.
ings at Danville, Martinsburg and
Fredericktown has been brewing for
some time past. Representatives of
the American Legion posts at these
places constitute majority of the
county council and by combining their
forces were able to present their de-
sires as the formal and official ac-
tion OF the Knox county council of
the American Legion.
Some doubt already has been ex.
pressed as to the legality of such an
action, II 1t should be undertaken.
The proposal upon which an affirma-
tive majority was cast by the voters
of Knox county was for the issue of
bonds for the erection Of "a memorial
building" within the county 1t is urg.
ed that It clearly would be beyond
the province of the commission to
erect more than one building.
The members of the commission af.
ter an adjournment at the noon hour
for lunch resumed their session in the
afternoon.

discussion the members agfeed that
the thing most advisable to do is to
seek an authoritative Interpretation Of
the law.
A resolution was adopted, accord
ingly, asking Prosecuting Attorney
Paul M. Ashbaugh to present the ques-
tioa to Attorney General Price for
formal opinion. A committee was APP
| pointed to go with Prosecutor Ash
baugh to Columbus when the question
Is formally laid before the Attorney
General. The members Of this COM
nittee are President H. G. Devin,
Secretary II ". Ackerman of Fredsr7
icktown and Clement Plubaush Of
Danvilfe. N 3. .,t
It is purpose of the committee
and of the commission to arrange, II
possible, for an early presentation of
the question raised to Attorney Gen
eral Price. e
Until this question Is definitely de-
cided the commission may do prac
tically nothing.
The commission also took action
formally requesting the eeunty COM
missioners to fix the am0snt Of the
bond each member must give. Until
this is done and bond given the com,
mission may not legally spend an.
money. This action is repetition Of
action taken earlier by the commits
sion. III
The appointment of committee al
so was authorized the members of
which are to go before the county
commissioners and ascertain their at
titude respecting giving the ground
east of the court house and south Of
the county Jail as a site for the MEM
orial building. This action does not
commit the commission definitely to
this site but simply makes it possible
to know whether this site can be
considered with the consent Of the
commissioners.
The members OF the committee to
interview the commissioners. are
President H. G. Devin and M. G. KIN
ney of Mt. Vernon.
The members of the commission
Informally discussed prospective
sites and prices, but took no action
respecting any.
President Devin has received nu-
merous letters from architects Offer
ing their services. Letters from 10
or IL requesting an opportunity to-
come before the commission and ex-
plain their propositions were placed
before the commission by President
Devin. The commission took no ac-
tien because Of their determination to
wait upon the settlement Of the legal
points raised.
President Devin gave it as his opip-
ion to The Banner that the question
raised by the request from Freder-
icktown, Danville. and; Centerburg Is
important and serious. Those pre-
senting the petitions did 1t earnestly
and seriously. On the. other hand is
involved the questions of expediency
and legality. 1t was urged that an
effort be made to avoid factional
feeling and division of sentiment.
Whatever action the members OF the
commission take they must be gov.
erned by the opinion of the attorney
general and not by personal inclina-
tions.
