value that the budget will re
quire because of the difficulty
of knowing what the assessed
valuation of the county will be.
The new method of land ap
praisal will have a bearing on
this.
Daniels said that It Is requir
ed that the ballot on the budg
et election must show the per
centage to $1000 of property in
true cash value that the budget
will require. However, since it
is very doubtful that the coun
ty s valuation win be determin
ed by that time, the ballot may
necessarily overstate the figure,
This may give the voter a
wrong impression, he said.
The election will be at the
time of the regular school elec
