BIDDING PRACTICES
REVISION URGED
High Building Costs Laid to
BiIIion-DoIIar Annual
Waste in Industry.

High construction costs are largely
attributable to a yearly billi n-doilar
waste in the building industry, in the
opinion of John w Harris, treasurer
of Hegeban- Harris Co. as reported in
General Building Contractor. This
huge waste" calls urgently for reform
measures to be instituted by the man
agement division Of the industry, start
ing with a revision of bidding prac-
tices Mr.. Harris believes.
Twenty per cent Of building costs
could be saved in some cities, he esti-
mates. If municipal building codes were
brought up to date He further points
out that the myth of May / and Octo-
Der / as fixed wing days should be
exploded for the publics sake, since
working toward these two dates in
crea~es seasonal dullnesS.
The Importance Of inquiries into
waste and undesirable practices will be
realized, since authorities estimate that
the loss in wealth due to these twin
ills of cur business approaches the
staggering sum of 81 000, 100000 each
year" Mr.. Harris says Able OBJ
servers have stated that management
is responsible for 65 per cent of the
waste in the building industry; labor,
for 81 per cent; plans and intergroup
relations, for the balance.
The entire competitive system OF
cur business is based upon the false
and uneconomic theory Of the low bid

AID TO RECOVERY
Chairman of Oil Burner Group
Says HooVer's Plan Will
Speed Up Business.

Nation will be one of the most power

cry, according to w c. McTarnahan,

The home building plan of the
President, which will be presented to
Congress, forms one of the most con-
structive proposals yet made to quicken
business recovery" said Mr.. McTarna-
han. 1T is proposed to set up a credit
system with an operating capital of two
billion dollars to rediscount mortgages

try totals annually about 10 billion dol
lars, the stimulus afforded by the Gov
ernment's advance would amount to
ABOUT so per cent of the total. No de-
preston could withstand this on
