CONTRACTORS ENTITLED TO PAYMENT FOR ESTIMATING JSrory contractor is entitled to re- -..jjetve adequate payment for his work -«■ services. None can survive long in .*msiness, nor make a fair living pro- -*t out of it, if they do not include '-their overhead or operating expenses ;Jb-their bills or charges for work and t*. their estimates or bids for a job. IBstimating the cost of a. piece of work, or preparing a bid tor the con- jstruction of a building, requires more «r Jess labor, time and outlay of .awmey, to say nothing of the appliea- - lion of the estimator's or . bidder's technical or practical knowledge, ac paired perhaps through years of study ;«o6" experience. "Estimates cheerfully furnished" ..Than "been for years a pitiable cry for ^■siness by some contractors. Of " 'oearee, contractors should furnish es- r-ifenates cheerfully and conscientiouly, ~!*wd they should also be able to do so ^■stapetently, but in any case they -.^Bhonld, be entitled to and should Aaharge for their services if asked or jpceiuitted to submit an estimate. rJ*rery job figured upon should bear •tte cost of its own estimating expen- .isBB. These should not be carried for- ~**WBHr«l to some future, prospective un- ^uertain job. No contractor who, let "4B diay, has bid unsuccessfully on a en jobs, can hope to be re-imbilrs- for his entire overhead expense for jobs by waiting to unload the "Same on some other owner whose job :;*e may possibly eventually land. "If .-lie cherishes this vain hope, he'll wither never get that coveted job, or, -ilJie does, he'll not make much profit wit of it over and above his accumu- ~^Sated expenses, especially if he sec- wred the job because he happened to ~%e the "fortunate lowest bidder." And '3qr-and bye, his overhead account, con- -.stantly piling up, will swamp him. ■Architects, better than anyone else, Ykonw of the danger, the annoyance, ■the certainty of getting poor work in •spite of the most careful supervision, if the contract is let to some of Tttie lowest bidders in cases where a "large number of all kinds of more or less able contractors have been per- - -knitted to "put in" a bid. For that •■reason, if for none other, every reasonable architect is in favor of the ■payment for estimating,.although some ■of them are slower than others In ap- Twoving of the proposition. However, as the present" prosperity wave will cat-use and necessitate an enormous amount of new building, and as con- would prefer to figure mainly with architects who favor the payment for estimating plan and who are not afraid, for petty or selfish reasons, to tell the owner of the plan, and also tell him that contractors cannot afford and do not care to bid on jobs on which they are not to be paid for estimating.

POINT GREY PERMITS OVER QUARTER MILLION POINT GREY—Showing nearly a four-fold increase ^over the same month last year, the building inspector's report for April gives the total value of the building permits for the past month as $256,880. This is a very decided increase on a total of only $69,500 for April, 1919. The quarter million total was made up as follows: 40 dwellings, $233,150; 21 garages, $9,000; 11 alterations and repairs, $7,880; .2. store and office buildings, $6,850.

Gillespie, of South Vancouver, has engaged Major Bird as architect to prepare the plans for the new unit schools which are to be erected in the municipality now that the provincial government has intimated that it will contribute one-third of the estimated cost of $40,000 for these additional schools. There will be at least four of these unit schools ^erected this summer in order to relieve the congestion which already exists in nearly all South Vancouver schools. The schools will be frame structures but quite substantially built and heated by hot air. Two of them will be two-room schools and the other two at least four-room and one probably a six-room building. Now that the government assistance has been promised Commissioner Gillespie announces that the proposed $225,000 loan for new schools will not be floated this year.

Owing to frequent fluctuations in the cost of material and labor as well as the nature of the work—some of which is required to be done at certain stages of the tide, City Engineer Fellowes had practically decided to do the work by day labor.

VMOWB BSTKOVm 790-791 m ATTIC ROOMS TO HELP ; HOUSING CONGESTION Housing congestion is so acute that the finishing of attic 'rooms is deceiving attention by Chicago building authorities, especially by Building, Commissioner Bostrom. it is estimated that'there are in Chicago about 180,- 000-attic rooms, which can be finished and made livable, accommodating 200,000 . lodgers. If these rooms are finished and made attractive at an average cost of $000 each and rented for an average of. $10 per month, the gross return would represent 20 per cent, on the investment, the total investment being $108,000,000. While housing laws do not permit tlie cooking or living Quarters in* the third story of frame buildings, in Avhicli most of these rooms would exist, they might permit of sleeping quarters and the rental would'be very modest. The rooms could be properly finished and insulated so that they may not be too hot in summer or too cold in winter and halfway measures in remodelling .them will not be profitable in the long run. If adequately done, they will assist the permanent resident in meeting higher rent problems and will help relieve the - present congestion. The question of finishing attic rooms may be profitably considered by other cities.
