CAN SEWARD AFFORD NOT TO
 PROVIDE A NEW SCHOOL?

There seems to be a prevalent idea to the effect that the pending cleo tion is to determine bond issue of some amount Such is not the ease As is stated in the notice of election the only purpose of this election IS to give the town council authority 10 petition congress for permission to bond the town for school by an election which will be held after that permission is given. In casting ia vorable vote at this first election, the citizen and taxpayer binds himself to absolutely nothing in the way of of additional expenditure or course of action It is merely an expression of an opinion as to whether or not they would like permission from congress to vote on definite sum of bonds at later date.
 Another idea that seems to be run ming rampant is that the amount or bonds to be asked for is S1OO,OOO. This is also far from the truth. The notice of election states that the amount of the bonds is mot to FIX CEED $1OO,O00." It is necessary to place some limit beyond which an issue could not be considered, and this figure was arbitrarily stated as that limit. Tn all probability the ac- tual bond issue requested would not exceed S60,OOO and likely be less than that figure. A definite figure can not be stated at this time as there are no definite plans or specifications upon which to base an accurate estimate. The recent new building at ketchl- kan was erected on bond issue of S15O,OOO. This school has an enrol ment of five times the number at present in the Seward school. This comparison would indicate a figure of approximately $5O,OOO issue by a large majority AS it seems to the consensus of opinion that Seward is a more progressive and rapidly devel- oping town than Cordova and esti- mate of s6O,O0O does not seem ex- horbitant.
 Taxpayers need not be unduly ex- cited about an increase in the taxes. I am told that the present levy is at the maximum limit and that the only other possibility of raising revenue for school purposes is the levylng of poll tax of not more than five dol lars per individual regardless of whether they are taxpayers or not. I am quite sure that the five dollars, if the levy would be that high, would be a cheap price to pay for the sat isfaction of knowing that Seward had a school which would reflect credit upon the town. On the basis of s6O,OOO of bonds for a twenty year issue, the annual payment OF the principle is $3,OOO; the annual inter. est at per cent, which have found by experience to be fair average. will be s3,0OO or total annual ex' penditure on bonds of about $6,000 The cost of printing bonds, selling

81. GOO TIREs. EyERY nAY

From a force of II men with a
daily output of about 40 carriage
tires to personnel of 10000 with
| a production of approximately 35,-
900 tires every "a hours, spells the
progress of the Firestone Tire &
Rubber Co., according to Vanfossen
& Price, well known Firestone Deal
| er of McConnelsville
I Messrs. vanfossen & Price who
have just received copy of the
book published by the company on
| its 25th anniversary, quoted facts
and figures to show Firestone's part
in the development of tires and its
position as one of the leading in
dustrial organizations of the world.
NO company has made a greater
impress ON motor transportation or
has made greater progress in the in
dustry during the last rs years than
Firestone,' Mr.. Vanfossen said.
"The anniversary publication
shows clearly the record of its
achievements. In 1900, when Mr..
Harvey S. Firestone organized the
company, it was capitalized at $780,
|000 There was no factory, only an
office, and the company hired an
other concern to make its first prod
uct.
To-day the capital of the COM
pany is s53,5S7,430 and there are
1899, 400 feet of floor space.
"The Firestone plants are the
largest in the world devoted ex-
clusively to the manufacture of tires.
Firestone is a veritable city within
Akron, Ohio, its headquarters.
Mammoth factories, residential dis
trict for employees, a clubhouse, a
library, a bank. an athletic field,
employees stores and restaurants are
some of it's activities.
''Its ramifications are worldwide.
Recently the company leased 1,000,-
900 acres of land in Liberia for the
growing of crude rubber.
"Firestone has made some of the
greatest contributions to the tire in
dustry and inaugurated the Ship by
Truck movement and the National
Good Roads Essay contest, both of
which have been of incalculable
value to motor transportation.
