At a directors' meeting Janu
ary 18th a vote was taken in
regard to the appropriation of
$50,000 for advertising and de
veloping' tourist industry in this
state, all but one being against
it on the grounds that taxes
were becoming burdensome and
that as. this commuuily has not
gotten their part of taxes and
help from any source in the past,
in their opinion all appropriation
should be cut down instead of
increased until the time this end
of the county gets recognition.
