For Army Cantonment Buildings
WASHINGTON, June 18 —The sixteen

The maximum profits on any contract
are fixed at 8250.000. The government
has complete supervision over the work
and may terminate the contracts at
will. •
The terms were made public by the

ance of unnecessary expenditures. The
contractor is to be paid his expenses
and a percentage of the total amount,
out of which he must meet his over-
head costs. His nroflts are to come
from the difference between this per-
centage and Kis overhead expenses.
