Coun ty Judge Grant Murphy said Sat urday. Under a 1947 legislative act, each county is authorized to make available $23,000 to qualified vet eran organizations for a meeting place. To date, only two requests for the money have been tendered the Marion county court. The latest request came from Aurora American Legion post 110 1 and Veterans of Foreign Wars post j 9745. Their joint appeal wa for only $10,000. Together with $4,000 j which they already have, their expressed purpose is to build a $14,000 veterans meeting hall at Aurora. Their request states that a lot 55 by 115 feet already has i been purchased. A request for the full $25,000 also is on file with the county ! court from a Salem Veterans Me morial association, sponsored by the Disabled American Veterans and Spanish-American War Vet ' erans of Salem. i j The DAV recently broke ground for a new $71,000 building after, an extensive fund-raiing cam- ; paign. ! I Judge Murphy said that he is i contemplating two alternatives cf dealing with the problem submit it to the people at the November election or divide the authorized sum among applicants as the court see' lit. The county budget committee, meeting in May, directed the court to submit the matter of appropri ating the money to a vote this coming fall. Before World War 11 about 40 per cent of all U.
