State Builders
Oppose RedGeld
On Price Control

Secretary Redfield'g proposal.tO co,.
troll the price of building material.
along with other commodities cam. ~
for vigorous criticism during tho ,,..
ing hours OF the twenty-third anime,
convention of the New York STATE A,
sociation of Builders at the Hotel Ten
Eyck Friday and yesterday. At ".
same time, Lewis T. Pitcher. s,.t,
architect, voiced the opinion that 81
though the state was prepared TO mr.
ceed Immediately with an ertsns;r.
construction programme, it would mn
be able fully to carry out its euti,s
programme because of the shortsvs 4,
building materials.
He revealed that his Office had 70.
Gently completed a survey of the ons,.
tlty OF building materials available 70.
construction work this year, and said
that not more than 80 per cent Of Tho
construction contemplated for the state
in public improvements could be car.
ried out this year. He added, however
that his Office was prepared to under
take very liberal building programme
and that it was already in process Of
development, with state money beinr
made available for the various uroi.
ects.
Voicing the opinion of the building
industry and building material man.
ufacturers of the country as being
vigorously opposed to any further ef
production or prices, Allen E. Beals,
secretary of the Dow Service Daily
Building Reports, said:
"All during the var building ma.
terials were the most negative Of all
commodities. The government bought
lavishly of stocks that had been bought
prior to the entrance of this country
into the war, and at prices that left
the manufacturer uttIe or no margin
of profit. Thew submitted to the fixed
prices patriotically. but with the hope,
a times born almost of despair, thatthe
day would come when peace would be
proclaimed and they would then have
an opportunity of recovering some Of
their losses.
That day has arrived. The build
ing season is right at hand, and prsc
tically all differences between the
prospective builder and the factor Of
cost ana actual operation at least
partially met, only to find that still
further governmental paternalism is
being recommended by the Department
of Commerce in the matter Of cable
to the President recommending the
advisability Of appointing commit
te,, with advisory powers only, to
assist in reducing prices on commodl-
ties"

Millions Asked for Improvements in Queens Borough

e5 per cent of the assessments levied

The cost Of sewers to be completed
during the year is fixed at S2,148.240;
highways, 81 ,311 $50; repaving Of high
ways, S762,400.
In the Jackson Heights section,
Iwenty-fifth Street, along which have
been erected some of the finest apart
ment houses in the borough, is to be

section, where already the erection Of

are ferguson, Gunthcr, Peartrec, Tie

for workmen," writes a ,.g well-known
architect from Buffalo. "That is the
obligation of the government, be it
local, state or national. Let public
works be started at once for the bene-
fit of the public The cost will be high
and the public will have to pay the
price, but the public will reap the bene-
fit in the reduction of unemployment,
the absorption of the products of many
industries, and the use of many works
of which there is great need"
From Passaic, n. j., comes the fol-
lowing statement: ~ am greatly hin
dered in progress of this work by not
being able to procure loans by way of
mortgages, in large amounts, say, in
the neighborhood of S150,000. The
banking institutions and mortgage COM
panies are making only small loans
around here, and, even where there is
ample security, will not consider in
vesting a large amount of money in
one place"
Labor conditions and demands are
held to be unfavorablc to Immediate
building operations by many of the
authorities writing to the Information
and Education Service. An architect
writing from Lincoln, Neb., makes the
following statement, typical of the
complaints along this line:
"Construction work in these parts is
now and has been impeded not little
due to the unreasonable demands OF
labor not only for exorbitant wages

tractors bid is S50O,O0O for build
ing and his compensation is fixed at,
say, seven per cent, the contractor will
receive S35, 600 no matter what the final
cost may be. If it is greater he will
lose small amount, and if he can
save money on the structure his own
profits will not be lessened. Such a
plan. builders generally believe, would
result in the establishment of the
building industry on a proper basis of
cost provided it was backed up by the
Government in two other important
details.
One of these is that every general
contractor should obtain not less than
three bids from sub-contractors for
all materials and labor and the other
that the Government should permit the
master builders to settle all labor dis
putes without recourse to the War
Labor Board.
If the first of these provisions is
complied with it will mean that the
general contractors on government
work will spread their bids over all
the country and will get into all mar
lets. Material dealers everywhere will
desire to compete for the work. and
the result could be expected of a gen.
eral decline in prices which would dc
much to encourage private building
If subcontract bids were not spread
about the result might be sustained
material prices, which would; defeat
the entire purpose of stimulating
