 7        (70 ILCS 5/6) (from Ch. 15 1/2, par. 68.6)
 8        Sec. 6.  Powers of the  board,  first  meeting,  by-laws,
 9    etc.     The  Board  of  Commissioners  of an Authority shall
10    possess and exercise all of  its  legislative  and  executive
11    powers.   Within  thirty  days  after  the appointment of the
12    initial commissioners, the  board  shall  meet  and  elect  a
13    chairman.   It  shall then also select a secretary, treasurer
14    and such officers or  employees  as  it  deems  expedient  or
15    necessary  for  the  accomplishment of its corporate objects,
16    none of whom need be a member of the  board.   The  board  at
17    said   meeting  by  ordinance  shall  define  the  first  and
18    subsequent fiscal years of the Authority, and shall  adopt  a
19    corporate  seal  and by-laws, which shall determine the times
20    for the annual election of officers and of other regular  and
21    special  meetings  of  the board, and shall contain the rules
22    for the transaction of other business of  the  Authority  and
23    for amending such by-laws.
24        Each commissioner of any such Authority shall devote such
25    time  to  the duties of such office as the faithful discharge
26    thereof may  require,  and  shall  be  compensated  for  such
27    services  upon  such  basis  as the board of commissioners of
28    such  Authority  shall  provide  by   ordinance,   and   each
29    commissioner   shall   also  be  reimbursed  actual  expenses
30    incurred  in  the  performance  of  such   official   duties,
31    provided, however, in airport authorities having a population
