Harlem water bond extensions bids lag in
A special town session considered bids for 35 600 worth of water works bonds but no bids were received. The Be Ywo Miracle Co of Great Falls showed interest at 3 percent above par, but the contract would delay competitive bidding and the town would net about 4030 in cash while paying interest on the bonds. Other contractors sought cheaper options, while engineer Weta proposed pipe enter and foundries to cut costs by about 20 dollars per ton, with a condition the plan could be cancelled after 60 days if not used.
