CONTRACTORS ASK CAPITOL BOARD T0 SPECIFY PAY SCALE |Want Specifications For New Building to Include Rate of Wages Representatives of North Da- kota general contractors appeared before a meeting of the capitol build- ing commission here Saturday night with a list of six suggestions. Four ferred for later consideration. The commission agreed: To allow the contractors six weeks to prepare bids from the time plans are available. To furnish North Dakota contrac- tors interested in the construction project three sets of plans, two sets gratis and one at cost. To set a time limit for construction of the builling at not to exceed 18 months. And to divide the work into a gen- eral contract and a mechanical con- tract. Action was deferred on a request for clarification of that section of 5{the capitol commission act providing for preference to North Dakota con- tractors, to obtain a legal interpretation on this phase of the law. Seek Legal Advice A request that the commission take action so that “a fair rate of wages should be paid all labor and that this rate should be incorporated in the specifications” and deferred for fur- ther consideration as to the legality of such action. George Bangs, Grand Forks, chair- man of the commission, G. A. Fraser, Fargo, and F. L. Conklin, Bismarck, commissioners; Frank Anders, Fargo, secretary, Horatio Hackett, Chicago, representing Holabird and Root, as- sociate architects, and William Kurke, Fargo architect, attended the meeting. Ben Meineke, Fargo, was spokes- man for the contractors and sub- mitted a written list of requests drawn up by the contractors meeting here earlier in the day. The contractors, in a resolution presented to the commission, stated they understood “lines 7 to 11 of sec- tion 9 of house bill No. 79 to mean the commission will add to the con- tractor’s bid any difference there may be between his low bid for the sub-contract from without the state, and the bid of a local man up to five per cent of the low bid. Want Clause Clarified “We believe,” the resolution added, ‘4t would be well to clarify this clause in the specifications in order to avoid later conflict.” In the request regarding wages, the contractors resolution said “we sub- mit a fair rate of wages should be paid labor and that this rate should be incorporated in the specifications. Fraser declared he appreciated the contractors desired to pay a fair wage to men employed and that North Da- kota contractors were interested in protection against outside contractors underbidding them by obtaining of which were accepted and two de-| 4 over out-of-state contrac- | ¢ 5 {tors. The commission, however, agreed cheap labor. He assured the contractors efforts would be made to protect North Da- the contractors ‘commission was in complete harmony with the contractors desire to guar- antee a fair wage for workmen en- gaged constructing the capitol building. Hackett told the group he was in sympathy with the plan of using North Dakota products and labor whenever feasible and that the ar- chitects would assist in carrying out such plans to the best of their ability, After hearing the contractors, the commission members devoted them: selves to study of the building design.
