The question is, supposing the uns official membara had the advantage in this respect oraz the offisisie, of what avail would this advantage be to them or to the public?

The powers of the Board are defined by law, and whether it ha an official or an unofficialmajority matters. very little, if anything at all, unless there powers are extended. Mr Ede quite right in saying that all communic ties should have ovory facility for maling their waste known and that the Sanitary Foard should endeavour to meet the wishes of this community as far su pre- sible. · Bat how far is it possible for the Board to do so? We need not question Mr Ede's opinion that every member of the Board has tried to look at every question coming before the Board from the point of view of the public good Indeed, we may freely give the Board the credit for having, always been notuated by good intentiones.
