Supervising architect Curtis has tor
hidden the use of the window frames
supplied for the new library build.
ing. ia Il
These window frames were made u,
by California planning mill and are
of pine instead of red wood, as called
for in the specifications for the cou-
struction OF the building.
The rejection of this material is the
first action of the kind taken since
work began on the new structure.
Curtis was appointed by the board Of
capitol commissioners to watch the
construction OF the new building. AMI
is insisting t4at material provided for
shall be used. The lessons OF the
San Francisco fire have made it plain
, that nothing is better than red wood
fer frame work in buildings, and as
this was provided for, red wood must
be used.
