Publishers To Get Current Price
Arguments on state questions to bo
voted on at the election November 2

which fixes a rate of pilnting declared
to be Inadequate in view of piesent
printing costs according to -the opin-
ion of C. W. King assistant attorney
general ( given to Joe S. Morris secre-
tary of state.
King advised that the statutory lim-
itation be disregarded and that tho
printers be paid a reasonable rate for
publishing the arguments. Bills for
such claims against the printing fund
ot the secretary of state's x office ac-
cording to the opinion.
Morris said he expected to see at
once that all publishers to whom cop-
ies of the arguments had been sont
should be informed of the ruling of tho
attorney general and urged to print
the arguments without further delay.
The printing will be paid for he said
at the late provided by statute for
general printing contracts coming un-
der control oi the state board of pub-
lic affairs which is a considerably
higher rate than that provided in 1917
for printing state questions.
