But it is expected that it will not be for long, as there are not many really large contracts to revise tcythe new lumber scale, and what contracts are subject ijto such revision or under estimate,, .are, „ma.inly moderate priced dwellings to which the increase, while admittedly being an important factor, will not necessarily be prohibitive in farther. contracts. I ■ ' ' ' ;' r" ' i Local lumber dealers .claim that ample warning was given of the impending revision of lumber' prices upwards, and they are further of the opinion .that it is far better to have the increase..come now when building activity, owing to the winter season, is probably at its lowest ebb, rather than make it during 'the spring when a large number of. contracts were about to be commenced. ..

Date Issued | 1919-12-03 |
Description | The British Columbia Record was published in Vancouver, and ran from June 1916 to July 1922. The Record was published every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C., the B.C. Builders’ Exchange, and the Building and Construction Industries’ Exchange of B.C., the Record primarily covered news related to building, contracting, engineering, real estate, and industrial finance. The Record was published by the Record Publishing Company, which had previously published the paper under a number of different titles, including the Daily Building Record and the British Columbia Building Record. The Record subsequently evolved into the Journal of Commerce. |
