COST PER TON-MILE OF HAUL It has been agreed that a price of $0.50 per ton-mile, up to a maximum of 10 miles, is fair to use as a guide in adjusting the schedule of prices to the haul conditions on an individual carrier. EXPLANATION OF COATING SCHEDULE 1. The prices set out on this schedule are guide prices only, and not necessarily binding on any individual carrier. 2. The prices shown are "in place" prices. 3. Use appropriate price from schedule to apply to the coating as described in the field, as, for example, where notes state Parolite coating, use Parolite schedule. Where type of asphalt coating described in the field notes is not shown on schedule, use Texaco prices, unless other data are available. 4. When description is given as "heavy enamel," assume that it is equal to two coats, or the same as items 2 and 3 on schedule. 5. The adopted prices reflect items set out on the schedule. If the type of coating varies from the schedule, and, for example, there is no wrapping, then the adopted price should be decreased by the amount of wrapping cost, or item 4 on schedule. Where there are third and fourth applications of enamel and extra wrapping, then the adopted prices should be increased by the amounts shown on the schedule entitled "Coating Additives." 6. For yearly prices, apply the following factors to the schedule of unit prices : The tabulation of prices for coatings, on account of the voluminous nature of the agreement, is not here reproduced, but will be furnished Mr. R. B. McLaughlin for distribution. Mr. Cahall was then called upon for a report on progress of accounts 106 and 156 and accounts 111 and 161. He stated that 1934 period prices for 103 elements of buildings and items usually found in the building accounts had been agreed upon. The subcommittee had also agreed on a cubic-foot price for five types of buildings and Mr. Cahill stated that he wished to go further and agree on a cubic-foot price for brick pumphouses with a spread of $0.14 to $0.21 per cubic foot, depending on the type of construction. He also wished to agree on a cubicfoot price of $0.25 for small brick office buildings. The agreed prices were to apply only to the superstructure. He stated that the unit prices for the elements of the larger buildings have all been agreed upon; that they would develop so much variation for the larger buildings that they could not at this time agree on a cubic-foot basis for these large buildings. He also stated that he thought a great deal of the data was unreliable on brick pumphouses and office buildings. Mr. Hood asked why the subcommittee could not exercise some judgment and agree on something which would be fair on these more important types, and stated there was plenty of data on railroad buildings and that this should supplement the pipeline data. Mr. McLaughlin stated he thought the report was in accord with decisions made at previous meetings and that as he understood it, Mr. Cahill wished to go one step further. Mr. Rosebrugh stated that there are so many types of construction that he thought the best idea was to boil it down to the elements and use these prices and later, at will, develop a cubic-foot price. He stated there were many additional kinds of buildings in the inventory and that about all has been done that could be done. Mr. Cahill said that with a guide spread of $0.14 to $0.21 per cubic foot on brick pump stations, he could work out, without much trouble, a cubic-foot price to apply to various types. Mr. Shanks wanted the minutes to state on behalf of the carriers that they thought that Mr. Cahill and Mr. Casaway had done an excellent job. Mr. Hood stated that considerable credit should also be given to Mr. Shanks and the other members of the subcommittee for their good work. Mr. Rosebrough asked how the $0.14 to $0.21 per cubic foot spread would be applied, and stated that if the unit prices for the elements were applied, the results of the application would be acceptable. Mr. McLaughlin suggested that Mr. Cahill work up some cubic-foot prices by applying the unit prices of the elements and see how it would work out. The subcommittee had also agreed on 1934 period prices for all oil tanks, except for those with Johns-Manville roofs and lightning protection. Mr. McLaughlin agreed to furnish additional information on these items.
