Omaha Contractor Talked to Engi
neers on Contracting Problem.
Tho Nebraska branch ot tho Ameri
can liifltltuto of dJectricnl ongltioorH
met laut cvonltiK. ProfeiBor iMOTHTT n-
trcducetl tho speaker of tho ovonltiK,
Mr. Edward F. Shurlg of Omaha, con
nected with thoVgtandard Eloctrlo.Co.,
an president ami Hoorctary.
Mr. SliurlR spoke from manuscript
and announced tils subject as bolny
"Contracting In General." Ho said
iio would bring out In his lecture the
everyday work along tho lino of nice
trlcal contracting. Ho defined elec
trlcnl engineering and he stated It as
being tho nioBt promlnont engineering
branch before tho public today in his
estimation. Ho said In part:
"Tho oloctrlcal engineering business
is divided into two parts,, tho consult
ing and tho contracting business. The
contracting end Is divided Into two
parts tho businoBa and tho engineer
ing ond. Tho biggest part of being a
BUcceBsful contractor Is to have great
Btrerigth in the business end. By all
mcanB nvpfd mothods of sharp prac
tice such aB substitutions in specifica
tions, .bribing of officials arid such,
Honesty ia tho best policy to follow.
"A great number of tho contractu
aro let on the percentage pfan. Ger
many follows this plan Jkjili .of-hot
contracts and a fow aro let In tho
Unltod States on this plan, and it Is
coming Into more general uso every
day.
"MoBt faliuroB of contractors arc
duo to n lack, of . business education.
Estimating nothing nioro than a
problom of analysis.' All residences
and minor building plana aro gotten'
out by architects who have paid no
attention to tho efficiency of tho sys
tem but power plants aro laid out by
oloctrlcal ohgineers thus being effi
cient. . .
"In tho process of bidding on Jobs I
follow tho plan of laying over the bluo
print n tracing paper and tracing all
condultB, outlets, otc, and then plac
ing the quantity onto a Quantity sheet
nnd pricing this. The tracing I have
then serves as a reforonco after- land
ing the Job. Each floor lias a separ
ate sheet and each typo of- work haB
also a separate sheet.- Tothc actual
cost 1b added tho Items of. procuring
buHlness. that of retaining business
and last of all the profit which lies
with tho contractor.
"Tho dogree of buccosb depend jj
on ino organization and tiio equip
inunt which aro dependant on each
other. Each day's work Is kopt on a
system of dally labor roports and ma
terial used is also reported. At tho
completion of each job these aro sum
med up and there you have a future
reference of great value.
"In 1005 I figured on and landed tho
contract or installing tho present light
ing system of the city of Lincoln.
Tho contract price was $112,200 and
extras brought It up to $i8,200. The
plans were drawn by Professor .Morse
and Dean Richards of this school. Duo
to caroful organization before com
mencing the work, upon turning tho
current through the llneB for the first
tithe It was found that no changes
wore necessary. The work wascom-
menced March 1st and completed Ah
gust Mth of tho Bamo year.
7rThTcontractpr of today has" to do
without tho apprentice systom which
hnB beenwlped-out-by labor orgnnlza
tlonfrjufd uch; milking It much hard
er to bo a success in this lino now
,n. account of having to depend upon
unskilled labor."
At the close Mr. Shurlg showed
tracings of all (he wiring going toMio
doho in tho now flftoenstory City
National Bank building4 of Omaha, for
which his company has tlo contract
