Urged to Vote “Yes” on Each of the Two Ballots— Cost of Building to Each Taxpayer Would Be Very Small | The question of the erection of a 60,000 community building in marck rests with the voters of the city tod ind will be definite’ cided before darkness fal!s tonight. The polls for the special bond elec- tion opened at 9 a. m. today and will close at 7 o'cl yk this evening. Since the ballots being used are very sim ple, cach question requiring on “yes” or answer, it is not ¢ | pected that the counting of votes will! require more than a couple of hours; and the results should be known by 9 o'clock. Voting was very light at the various | precincts throughout the.city during | the forenoon, but it is predicted that ‘the heaviest voting will take place this afternoon and just before the polls close. Representatives of Bis- ote: service organizations are en- deavoring to get out a large vote that the’ final result will be fair representative of the citizens’ wishes. The community building project sponsored by the Association of Cor merce and is backed by the Rotary Lions and Kiwanis clubs, the Wom- en’s Community Council, the Ame: ican Legion and Legion Auxilia Company A, ‘the local automobile ; dealers and the state corn show asso-| ciation, besides many other smaller clubs and organizations here. The Vote at 3 O'clock At 3 o'clock this afternoon a total! of 534 votes had been cast in the city, divided as follow: First ward, 1st precinct... First ward, 2nd precinct. |... “Second ward, Ist precinct Second ward, 2nd precinet.. Third ward, let precinct. ... Third ward, 2 | | Sixth ward, Ist precin Sixth ward, 2nd precinct Building Is Needed That « building such as that pro-’ posed is badly needed here has been particularly demonstrated during the past winter, when suitable quarters were*hard to find for the corn show, tho automobile show, and large con- ventions which would come adequate space was available Proposed structure would also house Company A, and provide meeting plaves for the various ci tions. There are two questions being vot- ere if e ie organiza- ed opto jay, one on each ballot. One provides for the increasing of the city’s limit of indebtedness and the other provides for the issuance of $60,000 in bonds to finance the pro- posed building. Voters are cautioned that they myst vote “yas” on botl ballots if they wish to approve the plan, The project must have a two- thirds m jority of all votes cast to Cost Would Be Small It has been pointed out ‘by those sponsoring the plan that the cost to each individual taxpayer will be in- significant compared with the value of such a building to Bismarck. Spreading the cost over a 20-ye period, as the bond issue will do, a Property owner's taxes would be in- creased gnly an average of $1.32 a year per $1,000 of assessed valuation. This is on the present assessed val uation of the city and does not take into consideration the fact that the assessed valuation of Bismarck will no aon it be increased materially by added improvements during the next few years, Such increase would low- hearry,, }er considerably the cost to cach tax- ¢| Payer.
