GOING DEEP AFTER FACTS
Assistant City Engineers Must

The Council committee which is IN

City Enginees's Department will hold
another session tonight, at which the
examination OF assistant engineers VIII

clear yesterday that the committee
would not hesitate to recommend
drastic action.
Mr. Boiling has charge OF the biggest
department in the city government
The work has grown almost beyond MS

Urged by City Engineer.
In view OF certain criticisms. Mr..
Bollings requested an inquiry. which
was granted. The City Engineer is not
on trial except as to charges affecting
the abilities of his staff Of assistants.
The line OF questioning has developed
the fact that the. committee is deter
mined to devise some plan by which
the department can go on with Its
work more effectively and with more
satisfaction to itself, the Council and
the public.
It is not likely that any sensations
will develop in this investigation UNI
less 1t should happen TO surround a
personal difficulty fight between
members of the Office force. Questions
were asked at the last meeting which
gave the public to understand that the
committee at least has been advised
that certain assistant engineers have
engaged in outside work when their
entire time Is supposed to belong tc

dence thus far to support the charge

whether or not the committee shall
