BALTIMORE, Dec. l R.-A
legislative council committee to-
day sharply criticized the State
Roads Commissions dependence
on advice by the j. e. Greiner
Co. in acquiring land for the
Baltimore Harbor Tunnel prof.
ect.
The report by the Budget and
Finance Committee followed
hearings on the tunnel project
which were held after legislative
demands for an investigation of
the rs per cent fees paid for
acquiring the land.
Urged by Greiner
The committee noted testi-
mony that the system followed
was recommended by the Grei-
ner Co., consulting engineers to
the roads commission. It said:
1--WE believe the State Roads
Commission either should have
handled this contract without
the services Of the Greiner Co.
or. il Greiner were employed.
should have treated the consult
ing engineer as a consultant and
an adviser only.
"In our opinion. the contract
should not have been entered
into. and we hope that 1t will be
the last Of its kind ever to be
used by the State Roads Com
mission Of Maryland"
It accused the SRC of "abdi-
eating" authority formerly held
by government and said extra
legal managers have assumed
governmental powers. with no
responsibility to taxpayers and
public +"
Unfortunate Trend
The committee called the con-
tract indicative of an unfortu-
nate trend in public finance"
and said the SRC had permitted
the firm to make policy excur-
sions into more fields which be-
long to the State Roads Com

Runaway Pipe
The pipeline that disappeared
was q part Of the Potomac River
linterceptor sewer, stretching
along Alexandria's waterfront to
collect sewage from numerous
pipes that have emptied directly
into the river for years.
Engineers crossed their fingers
and started putting the pipeline
down without supports. They
knew they were taking a chance
and kept a close check on the
pipeline for several weeks.
It started to sink. The lower
it went, the faster 1t sank. A
l85-foot length Of the huge pipe
still is down there somewhere.
Rather than dig it up, the en-
gineers decided 1t would be
cheaper to put down another
pipe-this time on a concrete
slab supported by pilings.

expensive pipeline of the entire

ceptor approached its northern
end. The city used to have a
