Harcus: The prevailing wages, contained in the packets, are <br />:hose that have been outstanding now for a year. <br />4r. Robinson: In whose packet? <br />9r. Harcus: In the contract packet from the Housing Bureau. <br />Ir. Robinson: What are those wage scales, can you tell me that? <br />Ir. Harcus: Yes, sir, I have them right here. <br />9r. Robinson: Mr. Harcus, I can tell you point blank that this is not <br />'he wage scale for electricians, and I can testify to this first hand. <br />[ know it is not the wage scale for some of the others, and we just <br />)verturned the wage scale as we were fighting the congressman's brother, <br />ind it hasn't been that long ago. Now, I also have on record in my <br />)ffice various jobs that HUD has approved at our higher wage scale, so <br />[ find it hard to believe that it is the proper wage scale and this <br />'ommission passed a resolution that the current wage scale in the area <br />vould be paid. So I disagree with this. <br />-3- <br />
