Ml)SIN" N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) the State Department of Local Government Affairs. One of the questions asked what would happen if the county board refused to grant an extension of time to com­ plete the needed work. On July 28,1972, the Property Tax Appeal board of that state agency encouraged Mr. Lowe and his Board of Review to continue in business if they liked, "but you would not get paid". Less than a month later, his answer came from the Office of Financial Affairs of the same agency. Its legal counsel suggested that the Department of Local Government Affairs may at any time order the Board of Review to convene in ex­ traordinary session for needed work. "The compensation and other expenses ...shall be paid by the county...." according to counsel. All of which encourages us not to despair in our difficulties with understanding govern­ ment.
