At prej sent there was no unified system, and the employment of an engineer wouui save expense. TJhe initiation of tha Highways Board rendered the appointj ment of an engineer the more imperative. The salary, based on what other county councils paid, would be saved in the resulting economies and efficiency. ' Tin motion was carried.
