ESTIMATE BODY
MEETS TUESDAY
Consider Atty Gen. McCran's
Opinion on Bonded Debt
Limit Question

A meeting of the Board of School
Estimate has been called by Mayor
Wilson for Tuesday afternoon at 5
o'clock in his city hall office. This
session is being called for the pur-
pose of acting upon the opinion re-
Gently secured from the attorney
general by City Comptroller o. j.
Morgenson upon the question of
school bonds affecting the city's debt
limit. The comptroller was in
structed by the school estimate
board at its last meeting to secure
this opinion.
The opinion, however, is so COM
plicated that two different meanings
have been taken from it by the
comptroller and Superintendent of
Schools S. E. Shull. The comptrol-
ler asserts that the opinion shows it
makes it impossible to issue school
bonds at this time as they will act
against the city's debt limit and
make the total debt exceed the
seven per cent allowed by law. The
school superintendent, however,
contends that the opinion shows
that school bonds can be issued in
this case without violating the bond
act.
It is likely that legal advice will
be needed to settle this question
when the school estimate members
get together to consider this propo-
sition Tuesday afternoon.
