Local material men, and con-

OF all material supplied to the
contractor to the owner of the
property.
Unless this is done no lien
against the property will be valid.
Material men say 1t will cost sew
eral thousand dollars additional
in Tacoma for the material men
to conform with the new law. 1t
will protect property sowners bet
ter, however, and they will be In
a position to know what has gone
into their building and can then
demand that 1t be paid for before
they settle with the contractor.
