An Engineering Succession

One of the suggestions made to this paper in the
interests Of better management Of the city engi.
neers million dollar program for the coming year,
proposes that the present staff be retained and the
principle OF promotion be recognized. Il being az
sumed that wider experience in management may
be necessary to establish feeling OF confidence ON
the part of the public ii Is suggested that the plans
and Specifications ISSUED By the department be sub
mifted TO a reviewing board Of engineers made up
81 experienced engineers Of Honolulu
The routine Of this system of organization would
be for the supervisors TO initiate an improvement
plan 1T would go to the engineers Office for costs
and specifications. Then it would be passed upon
b. the board Of engineers and with recommended
ions referred back to the supervisors for final ac'
ton.
One OF the points made in favor of this proposal
Il that larger sities Of the mainland have inaugural
Cd this system and with signal success
Pay OF the board of engineers viii be the first
1Dcstion. And there possibly might come the rub
d The whole proposition.
The plan is given publicity for the purposes OF
seussion, as it may have helpful suggestion for
tie supervisors who carry the responsibility for
public work
The attitude Of the average citizen and taxpayer
Is that the men and the plan of their organization
hail be equal to the size of the task, free from
POLITICAL entanglements, and credit to a growing
city.
