tion of any newspaper or financial journal or for any other reason, it is

ficient publication of notice.

liance with the Constitution and laws of the State of Michigan, particular-
ly Act No. 62, Public Acts of Michigan, 1963, as amended (herein called

Project (except to the extent paid out of money attributable to Bond
proceeds) financed through the issuance of the Bonds and which has been
