anyhow--ln the ordinary routine of the
Department. He himself was going al

the Department in fuel. the particular
matter under discussion when Senator
Mccormick introduced his resolution
and would be worth many times any

afternoon with the Denbys and the
Barnetts on board. and under orders
to take on additional members at San

would add nothing to the cost of OPP
Grafton. as they were paying their own
subsistence.
