County Building
Suit Settled
In Montgomery

A price tag of $1,981. 462 was
put on Montgomery County's
six-story penthouse Office build
ing in Rockville yesterday.
The final cost figures were de-
veloped with the out-of-court
settlement of suits involving the
county, the Byrne Association,
Blake Construction Co. and the
American Bridge Co.
Under terms of the settlement
the county was paid $4,000 in
a three-way division among the
three corporations. In turn it
also was saved from paying an
additional $4,000. for the build
ling.
The county building was occu-
pied in September of 1858 after
la long delay in completion OF
the building. The Korean War
and resultant delay in steel
shipments caught the county in
the middle of a squabble over
contract arrangements.
At that time, to get construc-
ton of the building underway,
the county agreed to put up an
additional $4,000 and to let the
matter be settled finally in the
courts.
County Attorney Charles M
Irelan yesterday told the county
council that mot the best judg-
ment" had been used in award
ing the contracts. He suggested
that by hindsight it appears it
would have been better to award
the entire construction job to
one outfit rather than splitting
the excavating and superstruc-
ture into a separate contract
from the actual building con-
|Struction.
He also criticized the "over-
pleading of the case" and said
his Office had inherited what he
termed was mot a good piece of
litigation" Mr.. Irelan said he
had worked for an out-of court
settlement because he feared the
county chances would be hurt if
the trial had been moved to an
other jurisdiction as he had an
ticipated.
He said in other counties
Montgomery is considered "as
the rich cousin" and that Mont
gomery might not have had too
good case to put in the hands
of a country jury away from
home"
The county paid $69,698 for
the site on which the building is
located; $10,863 for paving
$86,771 for architect fees; $685.
$40 for the steel super structure
contract; $1,343,966 for the
building contract; $176,853 for
air conditioning and $87, 468 for
furniture and moving.
Bonds outstanding on the
building total 81, 080, 900 or about
545 per cent of the total cost.
The old courthouse built in
the 1905 still has bonds out
standing of 100000 or about
48.8 per cent of the original cost.

That still would be $500 short
of the boards request.
Other increases in teachers
salaries are likely to be provided
Ionly'on an across-the-board per-
Icentage basis.
Release of the final asseSsible
base figures showed a 81 million
increase over previous estimates.
That makes $4,000 more avail
able to the county at the present
tax rate.

Well, anyhow. Joan goes out

lonely, too. They thrust and

cause she is too old and he is too

He stays out of her life for
