Erwin Rules On
Right ToHold
IEngineer's Job

TALLAHASSEE, Jan. l3.-tP.
Attorney General Richard Err
vim has ruled that the St. Lucie
county school board ehaiEznap
may be employed also as county
/, engineer.
, However, without a special
law, he may not be employed
as a county manager.
The ST. Lucie County Circuit
Court clerk had inquired of Erwin
whether the board chairman
could be hired for the county
commission as county manager
and engineer.
The attorney general said he
could find no provisions under
general Florida law for authority
to employ a county manager. TIE
position of county engineer is
legal and the school official may
apply for it.

Valse nodded. A sort of plan
had been forming in his mind for
1.-THE last hour. That it was both
vague and desperate did not make
much difference.

water supply lost 1O3,000,000 gallons of
water inascouple of days, and that was so
great quantity that 1--WE, the people" had

Today gives a tendency to fine

right path there is the making
of a studcrt of philosophy. with a
tendency to mysticism. There is
danger, however, that certain

what it says-aiding the INDECENT.
