County Officials Weigh Ads Funding For Land Sale
Cheyenne commissioners John Sloan and H L Farrington adjourned without a decision on using county funds to advertise state land sales. Citizens with leases threaten petitions and injunctions to block the appropriation. A 1910 statute authorizes up to 3000 dollars annually for county promotional uses, excluding private interests. The board has already allocated 800 dollars to county fair expenses and an industrial drive aims to fund ads in numerous national and regional publications totaling about 2.87 million in circulation. Mayor R N LaFontaine offers help.
