Of q clause TO be annexed 70 the penang

two decisions OF the courts recently made.
wherein II was held that the only penalty
that could be imposed for q non-ccmpatan -

scribed by the statutes. and that II related
only to the work done BY q plumber not IN
accordance with the regulaeton. ana. u
fact had nothing 20 do with the question
whether the plumber was licensed or not
The other case was the decision Of Judge
Miller in which he held thai the only pen
atty authorized by the plumbtng regulations
was for failure on the psrt Of the psumcef
to comply with the orcer OF the Commis-
sioners, and that since the act q Congress
provided Q spesiie penalty. u excudsd me
idea that the Cotamissioners couh prov1ds
