(c) The entire proceeds from the sale of any bonds
issued under the provisions of this section, after payment
of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
preparation, sale and delivery of the bonds, shall be used
solely for the payment of the cost of the voting machines
for the purchase of which such bonds are issued. Any
balance remaining after the purchase of said voting ma-
chines shall be used to pay the interest on or to redeem
any of said bonds.

(d) In order to pay the principal of and interest on said
bonds when and as the same become due and payable, the
Board of County Commissioners of each county issuing the
same are hereby authorized and directed to levy in each

upon the taxable basis of said county a tax sufficient in
rate and amount (a) if said bonds are issued in series
maturing at stated periods and a portion of the principal
is made payable annually, to pay the interest and the por-

bonds are not issued in series, but are payable or redeem-

Commissioners may pay said interest out of the proceeds
of the sale of said bonds.
