the bill introduced in the last ses

It was thought up to last week
that the site for the proposed lo

settled. However, due to the fact
that the land had not, at that
time been procured, the exact
site was not disclosed to the gen

for a .high school. They were as-

been asked as to the effect this
school would have on the taxpay

retaining or liquidating the gram
