Tho president also has carried out his scheme of dividing up tho work of canul building amang the commissioners, so that nominally net- ( log ns a body on stated occasions, . each Individual member would operate In a special field. Tho head of the commission Is a trained railway man, chosen for his administrative abilities in tho financial and purchasing field; tho now governor of the zone is a lawyer, who also has had to do with , etato affairs; tho engineer comnils- , slonor already Is known for his abll- itlos in tho execution of the practical work of canal cutting. Tho other j members of the commission are placed j to comply with tho law as to tho num ber of tho commission, but are men of high ability as hydraulic engineers.
