thOrlzlng members to certify
monthly the amount paid by
them for cleark hire, and direct
ing the same to be paid out OF

paid or agreed to pay for clerk hire
necessarily employed by him in the
discharge of his official and repre-
sentative duties during the previous

shall be paid by the Clerk out of the
