Judge Crawford stated that the zase would be decided wholly on the mat- ter of whether or not the county com- missioners had made proper disposi- tion of the money in establishing the building fund. If the money had been legally transferred from the various funds into the building fund the in- junction will not be upheld but if on the other hand the plaintiff can show that the commissioners acted unlaw- fully in making the transfer of the funds it will be a different thing. * MANY GIVEN EXEMPTION BY HORTON COUNTY BOARD Public Prosecutor Connolly Has Seen No Need for Action on His Part The Morton county exemption board advises that the large majority of those who claimed exemption at the physical examination last week have heen allowed exemption py the county board.
