OFFICIALS SAYS MACON'S SCHOOL BONDSAREGOOD ?Continued From Page One title to which title attorney would not approve. The legal technicality on which the New York attorneys have declined to approve the 1945 bond election is the fact that the bond ordinance, call ing (or the Macon County elec > tlon, provided that the bonds should be Issued within three years. That was In conformity with a state law governing Is suance of bonds by counties and municipalities. Prior to the ex piration of the three-year pe riod, however, the North Caro lina general assembly extended the period during which muni cipal and county b ads voted during and immediate'" afte the war might be issued. The bond attorneys' argument Is that, since a th-ee-year limi tation was set forth in the bond ordinance itse'f, the legislature lacked the authority to extend the time in this particular case. Mr. McMullan, on the other hand, holds that "since this I election was authorized under Article 2" of Chanter 160 oi ihi General Statute-! ( lxln? a state |. wide three-year limitation* thr I provisions of that arttc'e would be Incorporated in t*" <? nance, whether they were set out therein or not": that, "thf Inclusion of the limitation in the ordinance was on'y a recit al of the statutory provision"; that the legislature, since It en acted the statute, "could ur> doubtedly amend this statute at any time", and did amend it: therefore, "may be Issued at the present time or any time before June 30th, 1951". In reply to Mr. Jones' Inquiry, the attorney general wrote as f All nW?* "It Is the opinion of this of fice that the bonds in question could be issued at the present time. Conceding that the Legis lature mav authorize the is suance of these bonds, and pre scribe the time within which (hey must be issued, it follows that the Legislature may also alter this time limitation. "The only objection would seem that the people voted on an ordinance which contained the three year limitation as one of its provisions. Since this elec tion was authorized under Ar ticle 28 of Chapter 160 of the General Statutes, the provisions of that Article would be Incor porated in the ordinance, whether they were set out therein or not. In other words, even if the three year ilmitatipn tiad not been in the ordinance, its effect would hare been the MUie, i. e., to limit the time to three years, and the inclusion of the limitation in the ordi nance was only a recital of the statutory provision which add ed nothing to it. "Since the Legislature could undoubtedly amend this statute at any time, the bonds may be issued at the present time or any time before June 30th 1951. Our Court has held that "The Legislature may ratify and con firm any act which it might lawfully have authorized in the first instance where the defect arises out of the neglect of some legal formality and the curative act interferes with no rested right." STARMOUNT COMPANY v. HAMILTON LAKES, 205 N. C. 514. See also KINS" ON v. TRUST COMPANY, 169 f C. 207. "As the Legislature may vali date Irregular bonds, as it did in the above cited cases, it would seem to follow that they may correct a defect before the bonds are Issued." For Your INVENTORY ?
