If this procedure had been followed the question on the ballot would have indicated a debt Increase of $55,000 Under the wording of the ballot, the voters approved a debt increase of only $27,147.38 Another major error contributing to the downfall of the Board's plans is found In the manner in which the election for approval the bond issue was advertised The law provides that ad- vertisements shall be made at least once a wek for not legs t thirty days preceding the date of the election. Buch advertisements had been placed In the local papers for the weeks beginning April 11, 18, 25 and May 2, but had not appeared during the week of May 8.
