The Police Committee will require
to ascertain what repairs and fur

prepare salary and payroll there

regard to the Milk Inspectors COM
pensation. He Is now getting SIS
a month and transportation paid by
the Board OF Health, but the health
officials advise your. Committee that
II will be more economical to pay
him 500 and let him find his own
transportation. Another matter for
this Committee to ascertain is
whether the Board OF Health, which
has appropriations for pay of the
transferred officers until the end OF
June, will not use them for that
purpose In any cases where the ac'
tual services are assumed by the
Board Of Supervisors before that
date, of which there seems to be nc
necessity, except In the case of the
building and plumbing inspector.
