B.C. Historical Newspapers Collection
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.

All over Canada and the United States the slogan, now among builders and contractors is" "stabilization of >rices for building material," Recent advances iii many lines of building Materials—;some of* them without any apparent ryhme or reason—has let to sa movement' which is bringing into iplay a more tangible effort that will <=" probably result in greater pressure to secure these stabilized priees than las hitherto been possible. ' The financial interests , which in the last analysis, are usually called upon to lumish some .of the sinews of war for anany of the larger building enterprises, are now taking a hand in the game. IBoch in the east and, west this move- anept on . the part of ..financial converts who funiish the backing that enables many of these building projects to proceed, are marshalling their forc- *s and preparing to withhold financial j support unless som,e assurance is given tthat''- these over-night, sky-rocketing I .Jumps in. the prices of some lines of j Ijullding material shall cease and a ^contractor given some chance of estimating without the ever-present fear that, prices will take another jump be- lore the ink on bis tender is scarcely "flry. An eastern building trade daily ably summarizes the situation in this regard as follows:' '.(-.- "Greater stability of cost to the consumer of building materials and equipment is the price being enacted by Snancial interests when considering applications for building loans now. The situation is becoming serious. Some interests term the outlook critical and have already taken forward "positions hoping to stem the price ■movement in its upward course CONSTRUCTION OF NEW WHARF IS UNDERWAY ...

A car of ore has been shipped from the property recently. S. G.

Urgent needs have been cared for and the demand is less feverish. On the other hand, buyers are not able to cover further on their heeds for the year, producers being still too far back on deliveries to warrant accepting added obligations. On new business, with the exception of the Steel Corporation interests, prices for nails have been averaging $4.50 per keg, or $1.25 above the March 21 base. Both wire rods and small billets are exceedingly 2t is time for strong'minds and level, scarce, and wire producers are con- leads to step in and save a situation'siclermg their own supply to the de- that begins to assume threatening as-! triment of the general market. 3>ects towards a year's building program that has tremendous possibilities, but which may easily be turned into one of only mediocre volume. Certain powerful influences have already deferred decisions on pending applications for now building projects of great importance in several of the ljig eastern cities until after the new freight rates are announced, in expectation that the new schedule will mark the practical close of the most spectacular rise in building material .and construction costs the country has •ever known.
