Will Try To Decide Whether 5 Mill Tax Failed Or
 Passed
MUSCLE SHOALS BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD FlOreuca Ala Ian IA

The hearing of the recent election contest Is set for Wednesday, Janu- ary 16. The officers of the election made returns showing that the prop osition to levy five mill tax had been defeated by 14 votes. A recent count by the city commissioners showed that the election had carrie by nine votes.
 The contestants in the case allege that the ballot form used In the election was not drawn in accord ance with the law, claiming that. the constitutional amendment which pro- vides for such special elections states that a tax so imposed can be levied only for a limited time. The ballot used stated that the tax was perpetual. The second point con- tested, that of the right of the city commissioners to recheck and re- count the votes cast, has no legal authority other than law which gives the commission authority tc canvass" the vote.
