b. Stacy-Judd, President.
1t is with much pleasure we an
nounce the launching of the Stacy
Judd Engineering and Construction
company with headquarters in this
city. AS will be seen in the large
advertisement in the advertising COL
umns professional associate members
and practical departmental heads are
among the best in their line Of work
to be found in the Northwest.
The object of this cooperative or
ganization, as defined in an inter-
view with Bobt. B. Stacy-Judd, the
president, is to render prospective
building owners all the benefits an
owner is entitled to. After the sys-
tenn was explained to US we were
easily able to see that the claims made
by the company of saving of large
sums Of money for the owner were
positive. This cooperative system
renders to the owner every conceiv-
able professional assistance of the
highest possible standing in all the
branches of the building arts, to-
gether with all necessary building
equipment required in the erecting
and completing of any class of build
ing structure for an inclusive fee. A
glance at the administrative chart de-
picted in. the advertisement will dis
close names known to the public and
professional classes among the high
est in the country. 1t will also be
seen that every branch of the build
ing profession is headed by special
'zing sexperts. Under the old system
of building the owner was forced to
pay specialist fees and various COM
missions which were necessary for him
to gain proper satisfaction. But un-
der this new system all such special
ist fees and commissions are abolish
ed by reason of such specialists hav-
ing pooled their resources. What Mr..
Stacy-Judd has originated is solu-
tion of cooperation without huge cap
italization. At the present time there
are many Of th largest engineering
and construction companies of the
United States and Canada practicing
this new system as adopted by the
Stacy-Judd Engineering and Con-
struction company only on a large
operative expense. Such operative
expense under this new company's
system is positively saved by the own
er. Full particulars will be gladly
explained on request at the office Of
the company, No. At Second avenue
