Biennial Report Shows That Finances of Department Are in Good Shape U GOVERNMENT INSPECTED Sieusloff iBros. Market Court end Liberty Streets Phone 1528 LOWER;- " P RICES GOOD QUALITY SH BEEF 10c & 14c & FRE Passaee by the legislature of a state building code for the pro tection of the public outside of the city of j Portland aga'nst the erection of unsafe buildings is a recommendation of the state board of architect examiners as submitted to the governor, cov ering the period from November 29, 1919, to December 1, this year. The report points out that Portland already is protected by Us building code and its. bureau of buildings. "This evil might be corrected in the state at large," says the report, "by the passage of a state building code, with its resultant administrative officers, or provid ing that buildings be erected from plans and specifications pre pared only ; by registered archi tects or registered engineers. Title Is Guarded. "The present architect's law states that any person or per sons may prepare plans and spe cifications and ' erect buildings therefrom provided they do not use the title architect. This safe guards the building public to the extent that persons employing registered architects are assured that such persons have certain knowledge and skill as provided by law, but does not protect those who. in their Ignorance seek to erect buildings without the services of persons qualified by law, with sometimes disastrous results. It is also to be regret ted that the law does not pro vide that owners and contractors shall be prohibited from making changes in the structural designs prepared by competent persons registered under the law without first obtaining the designer's con sent." i " As an Instance Illustrating the danper of changing plans of buildinpsi the report cites the re- j cent collapse of a garage at Hills- i ' uoro i Criticism Heard. Because . some criticism has been made of the present law be cause It prohibits landscape archi tects and naval architects from practicing under their respective titles in the. slate- without quali fying as architects under the gen eral title, the board favors a change In the law by the next legislature so the members of these professions may practice under their titles nrovided thev do not" attempt to plan and su pervise the erection of buildings There are now 99 registered architects In the state, the report snows. The board conducted written examinations from July 13 to 16, two applicants takinar ine examinations, one of whom was successful. No complaint has been presented that persons were not complying with the law in all respects, but there has been in timation that some registered architects were not nroducfnr plans and specifications of the required standard. These rumors are being investigated. Finances Are Safe. The financial statement shown that receipts for the year were SZ395.S1 ! and disbursements J1560.38. ' The members of the board William C.
