Dual control,

stations, and other matters affecting the convenient use

of the works when completed, he will take care to confer

with the Colonial Goverhment to inform himself, and the

Consulting Engineer of its views and to fellow its ins-

➡tructions. Should the instructions of the Government in

any matter not appear to him to be consistent with sound

engineering, he will ask that the matter be referred to

the Consulting Engineer. He will also ascertain the views

of the Colonial Government on such questions as the price

to be paid for native labour (so that for instance the

local labour market may not be disorganised by the payment

of unduly high wages), and on any matters by which politic-

-al relations with the natives may conceivably be affected.

11. From the above it may appear as though the Resident

Engineer is in the difficult position of serving two

masters. This has not in practice been found inconvenient

so long as the Resident Engineer has possessed the necess

-sary qualification to enable him to enjoy the confidence

both of the Consulting Engineer and the Government, and has

net been exposed in interference by Government Officers

in matters properly within the province of the Consulting

Engineer. If these conditions cannot be secured there is

risk of failure to achieve a satisfactory result, and some

other system had better be adopted. This may, if cir-

-cumstances are favourable, be the contract system, in

which case interference by the Government with the

contracter's agent will bring about its own penalty in

heavy extra cost. Or the Resident Engineer may be placed

under the control of the Government alone, the Consulting

Engineer being either dispensed with altogether, or re-

-lieved from responsibility for the success of the work as

a whole, his functions being limited to giving advice and

assistance on such specific points as may from time te

time be submitted to him.
