Jus 8. 1943 CITY, STATF MEASURES QN UNE BALLOT Built In 1913 Electors of Klamath Falls will vote on three city and two state measures, and county residents will vote on the two state meas-j tires at the special election June 22. Preparations for the elec tion are now under way at the office of County Clerk C. F. DeLap. Voting places will be set up as usual in the 76 county pre cincts, including 32 in Klamath Falls. Election boards will remain unchanged if the members of the boards are on hand to serve, DeLap said. If not, those who appear will be responsible for filling vacancies. It is ImDossible for the coun ty court to fill places on elec tion boards prior to election as the law provides election boards shall be appointed at the Jan uary term of the counry court, he stated, and it was not known last January that a special elec tion would be held in June. New boards will be appointed next January for a term oi two years, he said. The Day of individuals serv ing on election boards has been increased, DeLap said, with each nerson now receiving $4 per day instead of $3 as has been the case in the past. The attorney general of the state nas ruiea that eieht hours constitute a day. therefore election boards that serve 12 hours are entitled to a dav-and-a-halrs pay. City measures to be placed on the ballot are: 1. A proposed 11 mill levy for three years to raise $36,000 for the city-county jail. 2. A charter amendment to make possible appointments to nil vacancies in elective ouices, until the next city election. 3. A proposed one-mill levy for two years to raise 519,000 for city sewer purposes. The two state measures to be voted upon would enact a cig arette tax to raise $2,000,000 a year for schools, and levy a five- mill, two-year property tax to raise $6,000,000 for new state institution buildings and $4,000, 000 for higher education build ings. The property tax, how ever, would not be assessed since it would be cancelled by surplus income tax revenues. us oicture oi tne ola rort Klamath high school was taken about 1931.
