CITY LAYS CLAIM
10PAV|NG POWER
Takes Offensive in All
Paving Deals in New
Contract Form
TIME LIMIT IS SLICED
Penalty for Delay in Compile
ton Is Increased; City
Protection Stronger

with the adoption OF a new form
NJ having contract Friday morning
bv The mayor and city mission
a.s the city takes the offensive in
matters Of paving and will not here
afer be on the defensive. The old
contract. which provided several
joouholes through which the paving
contractor could escape penaliZation
went into oblivion.
"This contract IL not written
uholly by the paving companies. but
by the city, j. NJ. Addison, commits
sioner of police and fire. declared
while discussing the newly y-adopted
form.
Penalty Increased.
The new contract provides that n
oaylng contract shall be fulfilled
gthin a specified number OF days
II does not contain the term work
ing DAYS" as does the old contract.
THIS one clause was the principal
bone OF contention. Under the for
mer contract, the term working
DAYS" meant days on which the tenn
perature was not below 35 degrees.
when there was not even sligh,
sprinkle Of rain, or when work was
siopped because OF labor troubles.
The old contract provided "A pen
al,y OF $40 a day for every day on
which the contract lapsed. a few
teeth" were put into the new CON
tract. which assesses a penalty of
SIS day.
II necessary to validate the paw
ing script, the city mission may
grant extensions under the new
form, but such extensions do not
relieve the paving contractor from
thy penalization.
In addition. the paving contarc-
Tor must pay cash to the city for ad-
yer,ising and engineering fees when
the first block of paving script Is
delivered. The new form OF con-
ture contracts.
Presents Extensions.
While the new contract Is pr!-
marily meant to prevent paving con-
tractors from gaining continuous ex-
tensions of time, 1t is also designed
to discourage them from taking ad-
ditlonal contracts when they already
have more than they can properly
execute. Frequently new contracts
are taken. the street IL torn up. and
nothing furthr is accomplished for
perhaps several months. while prop.
erty owners ask in vain for relief
from an impossible street.
Perhaps the new contract will
keep contractors from bidding on
work" said Com missioner Adkison.
but 1t Is just as well that they do
not bid as for them to get the con-
tract and then do nothing with It TOT
