Wary: that he belicves Inspector Henness knows more about building und the mechanics of building than any other rian in New Britain. He praised the inspector's work highly and stated that he is practically the only man in New Britain who can sucecssfully - interpret the nmew zoming law. He sald that the responsibilitics in the department have increased many times over with the accompanyi &dded amount of work.
