Labor Lien Law Debated by Chamber of Commerce
A chamber committee with architects and builders discussed proposed amendments to the labor lien law. The group backed changes requiring written notices to owners for subcontractors and material suppliers, with statements due within three days after notice. Opposition led by George B. King delayed action, sending the report back for further talks. A separate issue raised by King proposed a special committee to negotiate school term length with the school board due to late start and shorter Christmas break.
