"( Sierra Madra" Road Levy OK Catches Court Unprepared Approval by the voters last Frl nay of a three-mill property tax for county roads must have come as a surprise even t. the county court and road department, spon sors of the ballot measure. They haven't figured out where the money It to be spent. County Judge U. E. Reeder said today that on July 1 he expected the county to embark on a road improvement program but the pro gram had not been outlined and he did not know where the tax levy money Is going to be applied first. He said that the promise made the voters was that main county roads would be oiled and that roads beadng school bus and mall route traffic were considered the main ones. If the county starts spending the money July 1, at the start of the next fiscal year. It will be spending money It does not have. In governmental circles that prac tice Is known as "deficiency spend ing." The money voted by taxpayers, about $117,000 a year for three years at present assessed valua tions of property, will not start coming in until next fall, October or November, when people start paying 1948-49 taxes. By starting to spend In July, much of the first year's allotment will be already used before any comes in at all. The county will simply issue warrants for the money, warrants that are good at face value but which the county will have to pick up when the tax I money does come In. That will i cost a little Interest on each one, say 4 per cent.

Write-In Votes Slow Up Work Of Ballot Counting Phsne ts;s I'JHHilil ENDS TODAY.,";;',. Traffic Is Big Problem Not the least of the city's troubles these days is traffic congestion since construction began on the north en trance highway. One of the worst spots, under consideration by city councilmen. is at the underpass a; Main and Spring. Heavy traffic has been re-routed off Esplanade, and has added to the load at the underpass where Main, E. Main and Spring Intersect. The city council two weeks ago referred the matter to the traffic safety council for study but no action has been taken. Previous attempts at regulating traffic by means of the traffic lights at the Intersection proved to be not too successful. Police Chief Orville Hamilton explained that the lights operate too slowly for traffic from both Main and E. Main to clear the Intersection. Some adjustment to the timing of the lights might help, he said, but that would call for the services of a lighting engineer. The lights were originally installed by the state highway department when the underpass was built. The traffic safety council Is expected to make some recommendation soon. Write-In votes are making slow work of the official tabulation of ballots cast in Friday's primary elections but by Tuesday morning the official counters had worked on only one tally sheet where the write ins might mean anything.

Shoup la due for a trial in municipal court June 15. The truck collided with a sedan driven by James Derrah, 24. of 1343 Crescent right at the Main street underpass. Both vehicles were ex tensively damaged but there were no injuries. Other city police arrests the past 24 hours included those of two In dians who were fined S2S each and given 10 day Jail sentences for pos session of intoxicants. The Indians. Johnny Kennedy, 28. of Death Val ley. Calif., and Jeff Hull. 32. Chtlo quin, had two quart bottles of beer in possession when arrested. Hull said he bought the beer at an East Main tavern. An automobile race out S. 6th late Monday night brought arrests to William C. Myers. 21, 2026 Apple gate, and Ivan R. Hagerty. 22. 2941 Montellus. on charges of speeding. The arresting officer reported that Hagertys car was leading that driven by Myers by a scant six feet. Myers was also charged with fol lowing another car too close and posted 110 bail. Hagerty was re- cogged. Marshall E. Anderson. 58. of 5738 S. 6th. paid a 5 fine for failure to yield the right of way to a pedes trian at S. 6th and Shasta way. Where there Is a candidate for each party to taxe most of the votes, the write-ins do not amount to much. But where one party had a vacancy on the ballot, the write-ins theoretically can nominate. For Instance, D. E. Van Vactor was unopposed on the GOP ticket for district attorney and naturally got that party's nomination. There was no democratic candidate on the ballot so the person who received the greatest number of write-in votes gets the nomination. When the official count is over, the person who got the most write ins on the democratic ballot will be sent a certificate of nomination. If he wishes to accept, his name will be put on the November general election ballot. It so happens that the count shows D. E. Van Vactor getting the most write-ins for district attorney on the democratic ballot so he mar end up with the nomination of both parties. Virtually every other attorney In the county has at least one write-in vote and Clarence A. Humble, pres ent district attorney, la running second to Van Vactor.
