For Building Industry
Specifies Relation Of Oyeher, Builders, Workers
and Others Interested; Expected to
Overcome Difficulties

The New York building congress-, at
it's meeting at the Engineers Club
last week, ratified code of ethics for
the building industry which, while not

way to curing many of the existing

that the code will be of lasting benefit

Industry points out the moral obliga-
tions of each element in the industry
to his co-workers and, although in the

professions, the code now adopted by
the congress is the first ever formu-
lated that takes in all of the elements
concerned and applies program of
ethical procedure to them.
