by this Act shall be William J. Wilson from the First District, A. B.
Duke from the Second District and Charles H. Birckhead from the Third
District, who shall serve until the first Monday in April, 1931, after which
time their successors shall be appointed by the County Commissioners of
Calvert County for a term of four years and until their successors shall
be appointed and qualified. Each of said Commissioners shall receive a
salary of two hundred dollars ($200.00) per year, payable quarterly, the
said salaries to be paid by the County Commissioners of Calvert County.
In case of any vacancy occurring in said Commission, the County Com-
missioners shall appoint some one from the same Election District to
fill out the unexpired term of said Commissioners, so that there shall
always be one Commissioner from each Election District. The County
Commissioners of said county shall levy the road taxes in said county as
provided by law, but the road taxes thus levied and collected shall be
expended in the Election District in which collected.

The Road Commissioner for each district shall have full power and
authority to determine the public roads; in his district to be repaired and

the public roads in the several Election Districts shall only be made upon
the approval of the Commissioner of the District in which such material
was furnished or work done.

*The title of ch. 162, 1929, purports to repeal ch. 574, 1924, but there is no
reference to this in the Act itself. Ch. 162, 1929, being later Act and repugnant
to ch. 574, 1924, the latter is not codified.
