We had both Santa Glaus -with, a white horse and three little brownies and Santa Claus' mother and the Sandman with a big black.dog to help us with the program.

16 Sor the purpose of voting on a proposition to increase the present levy for general road purposes from 35 cents to 70 'cents on.the one hundred dollars valuation. The election will be held in the village of the hours of voting from 8 o'clock a. m. to 5 o'clock p. The commissioners have retired all outstanding bonds against the district and therefore the levy of 45 cents on the one hundred dollars provided for this purpose will now cease to be levied.

The present levy of 35 cents together with the proposed increase of 35 cents will make a total of 70 cents 011 the one hundred dollars for general road purposes. This is 10 cents less than the 80 cents previously levied 'for the general fund and bond retirement fund. valuation of the district is approximately one million dollars. A levy of 70 cents on the one hundred dollars' will yield $7,000 and the present levy yields $3,500. This is an insufficient amount to purchase machinery and supplies, pay labor and maintain our present 52 miles of roads.

Owing to shortage of labor and material during the World War only the most urgent repairs could be and the consequent deterioration of, our roads has been very great. The reflooring of bridges and replacing culverts has been a heavy drain on our revenue. During 1947 and 1948 we found it necessary to purchase a grader, a Caterpillar and a maintainer and since there is.no ifund provided for such purpose they must be paid for from the general fund. The commissioners have carefully considered this proposition and our conclusion is that an increase in the levy is to be preferred to either a bond issue or dissolving the Since the levy of 45 cents for retiring the bonds is now abated, voting an increase of 35 cents for the general road fund will not raise anyone's taxes. On the contrary they will be 10 cents the one hundred dollars less after voting the 35 cents increase.

In consequence of the situation, now. existing we the voters to give this proposition careful consideration, attend the election and express your choice in regard thereto. J. Wilbert McCune Commissioners: Joe Darwent Russell Truesdell INCOME TAX L. THOMPSON Phone 3135W DR.
