Moultrie, April 16-ZComplete but
official returns tonight from the six
teen precincts of Colquitt county show

that less than 1 per cent of the regis
trants voted against them. The Moul
trie district showed a vote of 92U votes
for bonds and three against.
The election waa called six weeks
and soon after the campaign began
county-wide organization was formed,
district chairman was^ named for ei
of the sixteen districts jand this ebairmi
in turn appointed committee members
assist him. In the election today auti
mobiles were sent from Moultrie to all
of the districts to bemused in carrying
