Eckert, McKillop, who was elected. Judge Costello administered the oath of office to the new. Warden and also the oath of allegiance to twelve members who had not as yet declar- ed their fealty to King George VL Rev, D.,J. Lane offered prayer.

He said that in the past five years the county debt had been reduced from $200,000 to $58,000 and if the policy of paying -as -you -go were persisted in it would be wiped out very shortly. He realized that something would have to be done a- bout road improvement. .. .
