Bond Issue Is
Passed Bv
Narrow Margin
Final TabulatiOn DisclOs-
es 12,429 Votes For
Bonding, 1852 Are
Against.

At the special election held in
last Friday to decide the

and credit of the City to the end
that the obligation will be faithfully
discharged. The Bonds will be in
the denomination of $1,000 each.
The Mayor and City Council
have stated that the money raised
from the sale of the Bonds will be
used exclusively to ,rehabilitate the
sewage disposal plant in line with
recommendation of the State

processing.
It was learned today that the
Citizens Committee, who opposed
the Bond Issue, are planning to
meet in the near future to discuss
the manner in which they claim
the election was conducted.
