Since the letter from McCarl was
received last Friday. the Commits
sioners have ont had time to get to-
gether and decide what course they
will pursue.
They are considerably embar-
raised by McCarl's recommendations
because they fear a suit for damages
if they follow his advice and cancel
the contract with the United Clay
Products Company.
McCarl advised them that they
made a mistake in giving the con-
tract to that company when it's bid
was higher than that of the Victor
Cushwa Company and the brick Of
fered did not test as good.
The Clay Products bid was $24.3S
for 1000 brick, az compar ed with 4
CushWa bid Of $24.
6 A Bureau of Standards test re.
vealed that the Cushwa brick was
slightly better from an absorption
standpoint.
Before taking final action the
Commissioners may confer with Nc.
Carl to determine whether or not he
will refuse payment on tie contract
If they decide not to cancel it.
Because of the fact that his recon-.
mendation was contained in a letter
rather than in a formal opinion. the
Commissioners hope it will not prove
to be ironclad.
