General contractors for the new North Dakota state capitol have agreed to remedy work claimed to be defective, according to.a report issued Friday by William F. Kurke, Fargo, in mares of the project for the archi- Kurke called attention to a letter he sent to the board of capitol com- missioners in behalf of the architects advising no portion of the building be accepted until completed “in full and taapented and approved by the arch- tects.” The Lundoff-Bicknell company, general contractors, agreed to correct the defective work, Kurke said, after the architects and State Inspector Edward M. Nelson decided to take “drastic action to replace all reject- ed work and if necessary to employ other contractors to do this work.” This led to a meeting called by the general contractor with the archi- ‘tects, their superintendent, the state inspector, and officials of the Lund- off-Bicknell firm participating, Kurke’s report said. It was agreed by the contractors that a new super- intendent be placed on the job and the work carried out in accordance with instructions from Kurke and Nelson.

Refers To Previous Meeting “About Nov. 1, 1933, the contrac- tors held a conference with the capi- tol building commission with refer- ence to the advisab! accepting budget ‘. tower section of the building, and for the commission to pay that portion of the contract.” ‘This was referred to the architects, and on Nov, 9 Kurke sent a letter to the capitol commission stating that, at @ group meeting of the architects on Nov. 7, occupancy of the new building was discussed “and after carefully checking our superintend- ent's reports which indicate that some of the work has been rejected and al- so the 10 per cent retainer fee crea! ed by the contract, we concluded thi we would not recommend to the co! mission the acceptance of budget ‘A.’ “We understand that the general ‘contractors have requested you to ac- cept budget ‘A’ for the privilege of moving into portions of the tower,” the letter said. Kurke then recommended to the commission if the offices in the tow- er section were to be occupied “that some other agreement between your- Selves and the contractors be entered into and that no portion of the build- ing be accepted until completed in full and inspected and approved by the architects.” Subsequently a meeting was called ‘by the contractors, after threats were made by Nelson and the architects to employ other contractors to correct the defects, the report says. The agreement was then reached to reme- dy the work claimed to be defective. City Groups Meet to Consider Projects ‘Three boards of the city of Bis- marck and directors of the association of commerce held a joint meeting Thursday to consider possible local Projects which would be undertaken under the new civil works program. Represented at the session were the city commission, school board and Park board, each of which announced plans to hold individual meetings immediately to draft lists of proposed civil works projects here. The city commission will meet for this purpose at 7:30 o'clock Friday night, Auditor Myron H. Atkinson said. When the are completed they will be submitted to the local civil works administration, headed by James W. Guthrie, for approval. Among some of the proposals men- tioned at the sessiorf were improve- ments to city and school buildings and property; improvements to Hughes Field, high school athletic plant; leveling of the outfield at the city baseball park for re-seeding next spring; improvement of park proper- ties; widening of paving on Main avenue, and others, Court Reporters Are Given Reappointments R.
