S eating a man to fill this pooitic.m is of tremendous importance_ to each of us there- fore we turn out to vote, in un- precedented numbers. After the Pre:iont is elected all other elections fall into a category of lesser imp vtance, depending upon the a.r:cunc of local interest. - As a na ,n it is good that we attach this amount of si•gnifi canca.to an election which places the destiny of our country in the hands of one individual. As voters we sometimes forget tit -.'t the• importance we attached to -c his .election is quite often reflected in other elections that fellow. Recently we lost a School election, not because of an unfavo.'able vote but because it is required that 40 percent -'of the people voting in the last General election hust vote in a Special election. -This--Special election was lost but through the action of the School Board is being submitted to the voters again on May 23, 1961. . Presently Washington State is experiencing one of the most rapid pop a.ation increases of any Western State.

Your vote is required to make this a valid election. Voice of people Cont. quate schools. Industries at- tracted will increase our in- dustrial tax base. This in- crease will_ substantially help to support our schools and our build- .ing programs. Tukwila schools were consolidat ed with School District 406 more than thirty years ago. Since that time the people of our town have voted for and supported many school levies and bond issues. Schools have been built through_ out the district but this is your first opportunity to 'vote for one to be built here in your town. If we are to prosper we need industry, we need jobs, we need schools. This is your opportunl'. ity to help. We need several hundred more votes in the May 23 Election.
