THE COMMUNITY
BUILDING PLAN
is DEFEATED
CONTINUED from page one. J

The total vote cast on that proposal
was 1.347.
Members of the Association OF
Commerce, American Legion. luncheon
clubs and other civic and community
organizations which were sponsoring
the community building project were
deeply disappointed today at the re-
suit Of the election. Their disap-
pointmcnt is doubly keen, inasmuch
as, although the actual vote was al
most two to one in favor on the pro-
posal, the measure was defeated by
the lack of only Is more votes to
make the two-thirds majority provid-
ed for by law. Officers OF the Assocl-
alton of Commerce had no statement
to make today, and were non-commit-
tai as to whether the project would be
pressed further. No definite steps
will be taken in the matter until the
next regular meeting of the board.

Estimate That
$4,000 Has Been
Raised for Legion

A meeting was held last evening at
the American Legion hall to discuss
and report progress for a new post
home. Many We're present, but not
as large number as was expected.
This was due, perhaps. to the fact
that a large number of people are
out of town at present, but those who
showed up brought their optimism
with them. Commander John Choate
opened the meeting. expressing his
confidence in the ultimate success of
the drive. and encouraging every one
10 continued activity. DIR. j. Fred
Hill, directing chairman of the drive,
spoke briefly in his usual clear and
sandid manner, calling attention to
the fact that there was more to come
and he knew where it was coming
from. Solicitors of the many teams
took down names of citizens whom
they would call on during the week,
and 1t is expected that the next re-
port will be given out next Monday.
Because all cards had not been
turned in tonight it was impossible to
tabulate an exact report to date. but
1t was estimated that about $4,000
mad been raised up to last night.
