ATTORNEY GENERAL
SAYS UTLEY RIGHT

An opinion rendered by District
Attorney Utlcv, relative to school
bonds issued by the Holtville gram
mar school district, has been upheld
by Attorney General Webb, accord
NO to lctttr received at the dis
trict attorneys office this morn
ing.
Under the state law n school dis
trict can vote a bonded indebted
ness not greater than > per cent of
the taxable property within the dis
trict. This action was taken by the
uoltvillc school district some years
ago. Later the supervisors redue-
ed the valuation of property through
out the county so the district found
itself bonded to more than ) per
cent
Some of the bonds remained un-
sold and when they were offered
for sale recently, purchase was re-
fused on the ground that the bonds
were not legal. The district attor-
ncy was appealed 10 for decision
and he declared that the action of
the supervisors in reducing the prom
crtv valuation did not render the
bonds void.
This oninion wns submitted 10 At
tornev General Webb for confirma-
alton. and his letter received this
morning cites several ins'anees to
prove that the Holtvillr bonds are
LEGAL in every respect.
The opinion will bc welcomed by
tHypavers in the Holtville district.
