THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING OCTOBER f, 1917. r ,-10 ARCHITECT DISCLAIMS I VISTA, HOUSE COST ESPONSIB LITY FOR E, M. Lazarus Says Added Expense Over Original Or ' dered by Yeon and Others. aSHBMaaaBaBBBaSMBSBJSBBSaBSaSSSl SAYS FEE IS REASONABLE .Asserts Vet Oompensatlos, Wot B V; Ortr a or 3 ler Cest, Altfeoaga jromlnally 10 Fer Cant. r Edgar M. Lazarus, architect of the Vista house, earnestly disclaim re sponsibility for the mounting costs of the structure at Crown Point on the Columbia river highway. He has been acting under the Instruction of John B. Teon, county roadmaster, an4 his associates, the architect declares ' in a letter to The Journal. He originally estimated a building which, without tunnel or approaches, would cost $17,230, and the multiplied cost, he declares, was not author lied by him but .by Mr. Teon and others for whom he acted. Increased cost of materials after the first esti mate was a factor likewise. Mr. Lazarus declares that his fee will not exceed 2 or 3 per cent net Although It is nominally 10 per cent of the cost of the building, this for the reason, he explains, that the structure Is remote from the city, Involves heavy auto transportation costs and more time for superin tendence. "A prominent architect of : this city, whom I asked If a 10 per cent fee was too much, said he would not undertake the work under the clr rumitinrti for less than a fee of IS per cent." said Mr. Lazarus when he delivered his letter. Arbitrator Is Suggested To settle the controversy over 'h fee tor his services, Mr. Lazarus prs . poses the appointment of a board of arbitrators "two of whom shall b outside architect of acknowledged reputation and skill, the third to be a local architect chosen by these two." Mr. Lazarus thinks the arbitrators .should be permitted to fix their own compensation, the amount to be paid b the county If they decide the 10 per cent, basic fee Is proper, amount otherwise to be divided tween himself and the county. Th decision of two of the three should b binding, ne asserts. "In August, .1915." he says. "I madlo a preliminary sketch for a simple and Inexpensive public comfort station of, concrete and wood, with cement stucco exterior and plain plastered Inter!' r, with a limited number of plumbing fixtures, and made estimates thereon, that association waa to pay for service." Increased Trices Kaise Expenses. Mr. Lazarus quotes from a letter written him by S. C. Lancaster, con firming verbal instructions given him, and asking for complete plans, to wnicn he answered 'Replying to your letter of July 21, ("devil of an architect, whose brains a month since August, 1915. He con cludes: . ..

Dlumblna: fixtures. etc.. since the time of the compilation! or tne estimate of September 20. 191a. any estimate based on current quota tions will have to be considered ac cordingly and allowance made there fcr. Building Size Increased "An estimate was given this office for the plumbing of this structure for the aforesaid estimate of September 20. by the Muirhead & Muirhead company.- in amount $2800. This figure covering the same work, with the exception of the hot water tank and piping; for two. drinking fountains in basement and two more drinking fountains on the first floor, two out side hose faucets and piping to same, which have since been added, is now estimated by them under date of July 20 at 13750. "Further, the accepted plans of June 12 called for a building covering 1810 square feet. The Ttuildlng now pro posed and as ordered and- approved by your committee, calls for 3318 square feet. No marble for wall or other finish, except water closet stalls and divisions, was contemplated. No heat for the building: no hot water for plumbing fixtures; no sidewalk lights or special ventilating features in con nection herewith; no terrazzo flooring; no conduit wiring; no Feralum Safety Treads for steps, were called for orig inally. These items, together with the increased cost, and the greatly in creased space, all have to be taken Into consideration in all estimates at the present time. Estimates Held Seasonable "I advised the association at the start, and have to reiterate that all estimates submitted by this office were compiled by responsible contractors specializing in their respective trades. and, although I do not euarantee their ngures, i nave every reason to be lieve them to be reasonable and prop er Facinar the hullrtlnir with ntnn uv Mr. Lazarus, added $6152 to the cost, and the marble interior added $15,070 Steel sash used in iiu of wood added to the cost, as-steel sash had increased approximately 400 per cent. Mr. Yeon. he says, awarded 38 separate contracts in order to save commissions, and with a few exceptions, all were award ed within the architect's estimates He makes the point that the com th fort station at Sixth and Yamhill I streets cost 89 cents a cubic root, ana the Vista house 44 cents a cudic foot "I am agent of J. B. Yeon roadmas ter and superintendent of Vista house. he continues, "for all purposes con nected with the erection of this struc ture on the lines of the accepted plans. Mr. Lazarus says he has traveiea an aggregate of 4700 miles to superintend gave birth to the Idea, which took weeks and months of patient istudy to ; develop, and to turn out true, ana cor rect plans and specifications as instru ments of service for the aforesaid con tractors and who is obliged to assume the fiduciary and esthetic responsibil ity for the entire project for a re muneration which in this case cannot possibly exceed 2 to 3 per cent net. $s made the target of attacks reflecting on the dignity of his purpose and the loftiness of his aims. t Cork Legs Reminded: Witnesses of Movies Bridgeport, Ohio, Oct. 6. Because spectators thought they were witness ing a movie stunt, an. unknown man, with cork legs, nearly lost his life here when he fell from a bridge over Wheel ing creek into the backwater of the Ohio river.
