The Weather FAIR HE BISMARCK TRIBUNEE“ FORTIETH YEAR BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA; TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1921 PRICE FIVE CENTS HOME BUILDERS HOUSES BEYOND THE ESTIMATES Cost of Constructing Houses Estimated at 20 Per Cent Beyond Figures Given LAWSUITS MAY RESULT Many Builders Declare They Will Not Pay the Added Cost and Plan to Fight Investigation of the situation with respect to houses built in Bismarck by; the Home Bulders Association, af- ter intimations were made in Judge Nuessle’s court here yesterday that the houses would cost considerably more than had been anticipated by the builders, revealed this to be the fact. How much more is not certain at this time. J. B. Adams, manager of the Home Builders Association, who was placed in the position after a disordered state of affairs was found to exist admitted that the average cost will exceed the estimates by about 20 percent. In some cases, it is said, the excess will run 40 percent or more while in others the actual cost will be close to the estimate. No Contracts Signed Very few of the persons in Fargo, Bismarck and Mandan who had houses built by the state have obtained actu- al figures. The costs are being re- checked by Adams now with a view of determining if mistakes have been made. This work is now complete and, except for the legal questions arising in the Lemke house case, the associa- tion is about ready to sign contracts. No contracts have been signed on houses built by the state, except for the first house built here about two years ago. There were 54 houses built | by the state and four purchased. It is expected that lawsuits will re- sult from the situation. The Home Builders Association will insist the| bulders of houses pay the entire cost) charged against them, which includes | overhead of the association. ‘Some of the builders have already consulted attorneys and are planning to wage; a court battle to maintain their von- tention that they should pay only the estimated cost, or approximately that. | All estimates were said to have been verbal estimates. Complete figures are expected to be announced soon by the Industrial Commission. The costs of a few houses only are known. In one case a house was estimated to cost $4,900 and the final cost_is $6,200, including. $500_ex- tras. In another the estimated cost was $5,433 and the final cost is $7,000, In another the estimated cost was $5,300 and the fin- al cost is said to be $7,189, no extras) being charged. In another the esti- mated cost was said to be $7,500; the final cost $16,000 to which is to be! added an unknown amount of extras. Question of “Extras” { The question of “extras” is one which is causing considerable trouble. According to some local builders the; builder was asked to select a stand- ardized plan of architecture, and then was permitted to alter to suit his fan- cy, it being the plan of the Home) Builders Association to have a few standard plans and have quantity pro- duction bases on those plans. The usual method of ordering an “extra” was to ask the superintendent of con-; struction how much the “extra” would cost, receive a verbal estimate and have the work done. The cost of the} “extras” exceeds the verbal estimates | in most cases, it is said. | The Home Builders Association is | dong Ittle work now, although it is! said that numerous applications for state-built houses are being made. Cost of Lemke’s Home. \ The actual cost of the home of Wil- liam Lemke, in Fargo, which J. W. Brinton estimated in his lawsuit as $25,000, is understood to have been $16,000 spent through the Home| Builders’ Association, not more than} $4,000 of, state money being in the | house at one time, and additional pur- chases were made by Mr. Lemke which were not reflected in the Home Build- er’s figures.

Reade, former state | fire marshal, following the announce-| ment that the city commission, meet- | ing last night, decided to advertise forbids for a fire truck. The pro- | mission’s specifications did not pro-| vide’ fxr a motor-driven fire engine truck. | Discussion of the question of the! kind of fire truck to be purchasea | was prevalent on the downtown} the commission at the meeting last night. Surprise was occasioned by| many when it was said an appropria- tion of $4,000 for use in purchasing a fire truck, made in 1919, had been un-| used. i ‘Mr. Reade, speaking from his experi- | ence as fire marshal, declared that! with the $4,000 appropriation and the! sum of $1,924.88 due the city of Bis-} marck from the state, from payment by insurance companies of two per; cent of the premiums for use of fire to purchase a motor-driven truck. Wants Paid Chief, Mr. Reade also declared that the) local fire department should have # paid chief and assistant chief, and % driver to sleep at the engine house, men. He urged close study of the} question of fire protection before any| action was taken, and that steps be, taken to make for speed and efficien-| cy in fighting fires. He declared that the expenditure of! $15,000 on a piece of fire apparatus at) this time by the city of Bismarck was! not to be thought of, and declared} that a satisfactory motor-driven truck could be purchased for funds avail- able, pointing to what other cities in the state had done. : Valley City’s Purchase. Valley City purchased a six-cylin- det triple combination pump, chemi- cal and hose car, in June, 1917, for $5,800. This was during the time when war prices obtained, and the price probably is less at this time, Mr. Reade sald. Careful consideration of the kind of fire appartus to be used in Bis- marck was being urged by citizens who had learned of the city commis- gion’s intention .today. Elaborate data should be obtained to determine the apparatus suitable for the city they held, and although the general expression of ipinion was that $6,..0 was ample to purchase the appartus needed it was declared that a further saying could be effected, if necessary, to obtain the right kuud of apparatus.

W. Birs, presi- | dent, and R. Van Wie, secretary-treas- urer, of the closed Fur and Specialty Farming company, were found guilty by a jury in federal court at noon today of using the mails to conduct a scheme to defraud. C. A. Anderson, third party to the indictment of eight counts, was ac- quitted and ordered discharged. Judge Page Morris, of Duluth, pre- siding, pronounced a sentence of one year and one day on Birs and a fine of $1,000 on Van Wie. In passing sentence on Birs, Judge Morris said he would write a letter to the warden at the federal peniten- tiary, recommending that the prison- er be sent to the government detea- tion hospital in Washington, D. C. “In my judgment I believe that you belong in an asylum instead of a pen- itentiary,” said Judge Morris. The jury returned the verefct about 12:15, after asking instructions from the court at 10 A. M. The verdict was as follows: “We, the jury, find C. W. Birs and R. Van Wie, guilty as charged in the indictment and we find the defendant, C. A. Anderson, not guilty. The len- fency of the court is recommended for R. Van Wie.” When the jury this morning asked Judge Page Morris of Duluth, presid- ing, what the penalty would be if the verdict were guilty, he replied, was not a proper matter for its considera- tion. The duty of the jury, the judge said in his original instructions, was to idetermine whether or not Birs and the other defendants had implicit faita in Bir’s “dream” to farm rabbits for their furs.

FIRE TRUCK 10 BE PURCHASED: CALL FOR BIDS City Commission Decides to Buy | Motor Driven Hose Wagon in Near Future | FINAL PROPERTY FIGURES Sitting as Board of Equalization Commission Approves Val- uations of City The city commission last night de- cided to advertise for bids fora fire truck, the bids to be received 15 days after the proposal is officially adver- tised this week. It is expected that the truck can be obtained in 60 or 90 days. The matter was taken up on motion of Fire Commissioner Henzler to car- ry out the “original proposition” of} the commission for a fire truck. An appropriation of $4,000 made in the 1919 budget for a fire truck, which budget was the subject of litigation, is available, it is sald, and the city has due it about $1,800 as the fire depart- ment’s part of the payment of fire in- surance money for the fire depart- ments of the state. The specifications for the fire truck ‘bids are: two-men truck, hose wagon body, 40 to 60 horse power, capable of speed of 35 miles an hour, either four or six cylinder, one year guarantee! against defective parts, chemical tank. May Keep Horses It was proposed to accept bids on a chassis only and transfer the body from the horse-drawn wagon now in use. It was suggested that the city ought to keep the horse-drawn wagon and team for emergency, and that the team could be used in street work at a saving to the city over contract work. This plan probably will be carried out. | The commission, meeting as a board of equalization, approved the final fig- ures on assessment of city property: The total increase by the board of equalization over the assessor’s fig- ures was $215,176. The assessed valu- ation as fixed by the equalization ‘board is personal property, $3,017,921; real estate, $5,154,207. The valua- tion last year as sent to the county auditor by the board of equalization was personal property $2,725,353; real estate, $4,890,244; total $7,615,597. Tests Swimming Pool E. M. Stanton, city bacteriologist, reported to the commission that three samples of the water in the swimming pool had been taken and tests are being made; further that daily tests various places, including restaurants and butcher shops and slaughter houses, which, he said, generally were in good condition.
