Reg-27 JAN (3)

I submit the following remarks on the Report of the

Committee:-

Paragraph 2. The statement that "the first estimate did not include

the cost of the foundations" is incorrect. I assume that the first

estimate referred to is the one of $525,000 mentioned in the opening

sentence of paragraph 2. The estimate whion accompanied Messrs. Denison, Ram and Gibbs' design, submitted in competition, ran as follows:-

Estimated cost of foundations including drainage.

The above information was contained in my explanatory statement of the increase in cost of the building (vide p. 2) which I

understand was in the hands of the Committee.

Paragraph 2. The further statement that "these modifications account for the estimate of the cost of the superstructure being increased by $44,200 to 8647,950′′ is also incorrect as may be seen from the follow- -ing comparison of the estimates furnished by Messrs. Denison, Rain and

Gibbs.
