propriation of mill for new buildings
for the school and 1-25 mill for main
tenance. Funds from this source will not
', be available for another year, however,
and a special allowance of $15,000 was
' made to cover running expenses during

7 Superintendent Myers stated today that
a 10-acre tract inside the city limits
would be required for proposed new build-

HAN 5000
VOTERS SIGN FOR
WILLIAMS' RECAll
More than five thousand registered
voters have signed the petition de
manding the recall of Public Senr
ice Commissioner Fred A. Williams,
according to a statement made today
by Robert G. Duncan, chairman Of
the public service recall committee.
One volunteer solicitor brought in
378 names Wednesday evening with
a record of no refusals, he stated. I
, "Scores of citizens are asking for the
privilege of carrying a petition through
their communities, and the business
houses ;are asking us to send around the
petitions to them. It is apparent that
the whole people have laid aside partisan
prejudice and have united in an effort
to obtain relief from the telephone tax."
OBSTACLES ABE MET
"Every obstacle Is being thrown In oUr
way," continued Duncan, "the latest of
which is the announcement from the
county clerk to the effect that the law
allows him one day to check each 200
names on the petition, and that for all
names checked above that number each
day, aharge will be made. At the rate
allowed: by law. It will take 200 days to
check the names." .' ; - V - -
"The news that the telephone divi
dends have been Increased from t to 9
per cent is the biggest boost that the re
call movement could ask. The people
understand that the insiders of the wire
trust cleaned up- millions yesterday on
the fluctuations in the price of telephone
stock." ; - -i .
Mr. Duncan expressed : confidence In
the recall landslide and predicted that,
inasmuch as th.e recall committee la en
deavoring - to give the people who - pay
the bills representation, it would be
through the ballot in the voting booth
that this question of the telephone tax
would be finally settled. .
REHEARING URGED 1
Rehearing of the telephone rate case
was recommended by directors of the
Chamber of Commerce Wednesday, fol
lowing consideration of a committee re
port submitted by David T. Honeyman,
chairman.
"It is the opinion of the committee,"
said the report, "that the Chamber of
Commerce lend its influence and, if nec
essary, its financial support, in joining
for a petition for a .rehearing of the tel
ephone rate case." ,
The sense of the committee was that
every possible aid, both financial and
technical, should be given by the cham
ber to the petition for rehearing, that all
the facts be obtained, and that proper
counsel be retained to handle the legal
details. A. letter has been sent by the
Chamber of Commerce both to the public
service commission and to the city coun
cil, setting forth the views of the di
rectors.
