IMPORTANCE BOND ELECTION AT NOME
Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of
the special bond election to be held here Tuesday, July 16,
in connection with the PWA Loan and Grant.
During the past few weeks it has been noticeable that
little interest was developed in this respect and consequent
lv the registration was uncommonly low. The fact remains,
however, that the city must pass on the question of bonding
and the records of the election must be sent to the officials
in Washington, D. C.
Analyze for yourself, the result, should the authorities
receive a telegram of the vote on the election, and not
more than 100 qualified property owners had cast their bal
lots. The answer is simple—their imagination would be
stretched beyond all recognition, in order to believe that
Nome would! from that showing, pay back her loan from the
Federal Government.
There is the most important feature of the entire elec
tion. Nome must present a solid front to the authorities to
convince them that the taxable property here is amply suf
ficient to repay the loan—but it cannot do so if a full vote
is not cast.
There are many business men in Nome who ordinarily
are alive to their city’s opportunities—who failed to register
_this is one time when they fell down, and fell down with
a thump. They have overlooked, to a remarkable degree,
the importance of this election.
Qualified voters on the last assessment roll for purposes
of municipal taxation number approximately two hundred
odd property owners, for this election. Now, it should be
a simple matter for those two hundred or more to devote
about half an hour to casting their ballot for the bond issue
—especially, if they realize the jeopardy into which the sit
uation has fallen.
Get out the largest vote possible for the purposes here
inabove set forth, and for the purpose of discounting the ef
fect which a poor showing might have.
“Woman Accused”
Will Be Shown At
l)i earn On Sunday
“The Woman Accused” is the
story of Nancy Carroll, who, on the
eve of her marriage to Cary Grant,
is confronted by a former lover,who
demands that she return to him.
She refuses flatly. Furious and ex
cited, he phones a gangster friend,
with the announced intention of hav
ing Grant 'bumped off." But before
he can carry through his plan, Nancy
has killed him.
Hysterically, she flees with Grant
aboard a steamship making a week
end “cruise to nowhere.” Halliday,
a friend of the slain man, follows,
attempting to incriminate her. But
Grant, in a dramatic climax, clears
her of all guilt and carries her off
to safety.
This remarkable film comes to the
Dream Theatre, Sunday, July 14th,
with Nancy Carroll, Cary Grant and
John Halliday in leading roles.
