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.
