The Levy Court today decided that

County Engineer Charles Il. Grub
has put snow shovelers TO work. This
decision was reached after considera-
ton of the following communication
tfrom the county engineer:
IL beg TO report to your honorable
body that. in order TO meet the emer
gency situation caused by the unusual
snow storm. I'VE have employed ap-
lproximately $40 men. in Al gangs, TO
clear the main highways OF the coun-
| ty for travel.
| "The assignments of these forces to
date include $50 miles. which. when
cleared. will permit communication
between the centers Of population in
the county.
| you will recognize that $50 miles
Is but n small percentage OF the 1000
miles Of road in the county and that
to clear the full mileage would cost
approximately $4,000. AS an expen-
diture of anywhere near this amount
would cripple our organization in ac-
lcomplishing any work later in the sea-
son, / would suggest that you give
very careful consideration TO the
needs OF the various areas and deter
mine to what extent we should be
authorized TO proceed with this work
and at the same time give this ilfor-
nation TO the residents OF the county
in order that they may appreciate the
enormous task with which we are
confronted and be reasonable in their
expectations for immediate relief"
