OBSOLETE x
The second measure on the
ballot levies a tax for the purpose
of building and equipping state
armories. Tt is the smallest of the
three tax bills, levying a little
less than half a mill on the real
property o f the state for the next
ten years.
One cannot but wonder on the
value of armories as a place to
train men for combat since the
atomic bomb has been discovered.
In armories mfen kept equipment
and learned some close order
drill and the manual of arms.
AU of that IB obsolete if what we
are told about atomic power is
true.
Certainly national defense is
necessary—almost as certainly
an armory is not the place to
achieve it.
