Floyd Mm Beard Cells Bond Election Im. 31 M ?lm lb Tsx Increase To Repay In order to provide revenue for in gent building and remodeling nesds in the Millard County School District, the Board of Education has celled a bond election for Tuesday. January 31, 193G. The' lo..il nut'ee of the election appears elsewhere in this paper. The proposition pro-position to be voted on does not increase school taxes hut. rather i places the present building levy on a short term bond basis. The bonds will raise approximately $600,000.00 and will be payable over a six-year period. The major considerations which influenced the Board in the decision for a bond issue are as follows: 1. First, there are urgent and pressing building and remodeling needs in the district which should be met now. 2. Piecemeal construction on a year to year basis is costly and inefficient. in-efficient. The Board has been advised ad-vised by its architects and by contractors con-tractors and construction firms that substantial savings can be effected when building and remodeling re-modeling contracts are let in larger units. It is anticipated that this factor of lower construction cost will more than offset the in creased interest of the bond. 3. The intere.it involved in the proposed bond issue will be at a very favorable rate. It will vary with each bond depending upon its date of maturity. The average rate will be about 2U. 4. The Board of Education was advised to proceed with the bond issue by an advisory committee made up of representative citizens from throughout the county. This citizens' committee after hearing the pertinent facts and discussing the issues involved made an unanimous un-animous recommendation to the Board that they proceed with a short term (six years) bond issue to meet the building and remodel-!ng remodel-!ng needs of the district. 5. After careful and . thorough study of the problem, the individual indivi-dual men bers of the Board of Education and the Superintendent were agreed that the bond issue provided the moost economical an:l satisfactory solution to the building build-ing needs of the district. In order to acquaint the people of the district with the facts involved in-volved in the proposed bond issue and to answer questions which msy arise, a scries of meetings Is being scheduled throughout the district. Meetings scheduled to date are listed below. The date for the meetings in other localities will be announced as arrangements are made. The details of the building and remodeling projects to be covered by the proposed bond issue will be outlined in an article in the next Issue of this paper and will be discussed in the various meetings meet-ings to be held through the district. dis-trict. o : i - j LLhcp.

Polio Grant To fJ-U of $86,207 Aids Research The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis Thursday granted grant-ed the University of Utah $86,027 to continue a search for chemical compounds which might prove effective ef-fective against polio. Announcement of the grant was made by Dr. A. Ray Olpin, U president, and Basil O'Connor, President Pre-sident of the rational foundation. Directing the project will be Dr. Louis P. Gebharrtt, head of the department n" bacteriology at the U, with Dr. William J. Burke, head of the department of chemistry, aiding in chemical studies. One phase of the program will be an extended chemical analysis of crudf gallic acid particularly in its commercial state, which has been found effective, against paralytic para-lytic polio in experiments on animals. ani-mals. The acid is used widely by photographers. "Something done to gallic acid during the commercializing process apparently sets up a compound that we must isolate, analyze and then test," the U scientists agreed. They said that many nerve cells affected by the disease recover and they hope that some substance can be found that will give enough extra support to the recovery processes pro-cesses to save additional cells, thus preventing or reducing paralysis.
