Dear Sirg--
I have your letter of January 50th referring to the _
letting of the construction of the new tipplo to Gordon Van Dine
on a cost-plus oasis and have gone over the items in detail which
would cover such an arrangement, as you indicate them.
I rather believe it would DG advisable to let this
job as you suggest. Why can’t we furnish the material, and in
case we did would Gordon Van Tine take this job on the same basis
for the labor account alone? That is, it would seem to me that
we could get just as good delivery and just as good prices as
Gordon Van Tine could and that VG could satisfy ourselves as to
the character of the material and also save a little money. On
the other hand, providing we furnished the material it might
mean some delay tc them and their costs might accumulate and we
would have no real oasis for criticism. These, however, are
things that we should go into thoroly before deciding. Provid-
ing we are in a position to get the material and get prompt del-
ivory on it I can see no objections to assuming this end of the
proposition ourselves.
In drawing up the agreement we should be careful to
see that we ,‘i. are well protected in the matter of supervision and
incidential expense as they have a considerable force on the job
in connection with their contract and it might be possible that
they would shove too much of it on to us although I do not think
they are the kind of people who would do this.
I expect to be in Benham Thursday noon and in all
probability you Will not be able to get this thing definitely
settled before that time, you might, however, in the meantime
have Judge Sampson draw up an agreement and we can then discuss
it with the contractors and will arrive at some conclusion very
shortly after I get down.
Yours truly,
International Harvester Company
