for the use of Indiana limestone. at
the request OF ckhaf ne parties. Con-

view to having Oklahoma stone used
In explanation OF the final decision in
favor Of the Indiana product, Mr.. Fer

treasury department
Washington, Oct. q. Honor
able Scott Ferris. House of Represen-
tatives, Washington.
Dear Sir-Referring to the new fed
eral building at Chickasha, Okla, this
department on August 20 wrote you
that the question of using bromide
oolitic stone for facing would be taken
up with the contractors. Accordingly
a propusal was requested and it Is
found that to use this material would
entail an additional expense 10 the
government of approximately $1,000
1t is not understood why this material
which Is local one, should cost Sc
much more than the limestone requir
ed by the contract. However, as the
department does not feel justified il
going to such additional expense, th'
proposal has been rejected and th'
contractor directed to furnish lime
stone as contemplated by his origina
bid. Yours very truly,
BRYAN r. NEWTON,
Assistant Secretary.
