Before submitting a report the joint committee in each case will consult, and if deemed necessary employ, expert civil and mechanical engineers to assist in the work, the authority for employment of experts having first been secured from the Department on a statement of cost.
While it is desired that all information pertinent to the general investigation ordered by Congress may be secured through one or more of these local reports, to be Signed by the joint committee, care should be taken to avoid any unnecessary repetition or duplication of general information. The members of the general committee will be advised at once of their selection and will hold themselves in readiness to take up the local reports when called upon by the office of the Second Assistant Postmaster General in the order designated by him.
It is desired that the work proceed with as little delay as possible and that the reports be filed in the Department at the earliest date practicable.
