Mr. Conafllb1e and I have been neaotiatiaa with Mesars. Gottlieb and Lippert on an ' auto thrill show featuring preciaion driving which they would &poll8or in tba Transportation Section. This shew would be similar to the one put era by Goodrich in the 1939·40 Pair.

Meura. Gottlieb and J.ippert have asread. to pay the Pair ten percent of their sroaa revenues with a sin~ auarantea of $750,000. Of thie IIIOUnt • they will pay $175,000 upon the lipiD& of the lease, wh:l.eh we anticipate will be f.a August of September 1962.

Eastern has en,gqed an architect to study the proposed exhibit which we preaented to them. They are also con• siderina an alternate plan of their own.·

Status

Of this group 3 only United Aircraft has stated definitely that it plans to ex­hibit at the Fair either as an indivi­dual or in collaboration with other c~­panies. Boeing and North American Aviation are opposed to any participation in the Fair unless "forced" by outside pressures. Minneapolis-Honeywell, Martin Aerojet and most of the other companies are waiting to see what, if anything, NASA is going to exhibit and obviously this awaits the appropriation of funds and the official appoinbment of a Federal Commissioner. It is felt that very little urging by ~ would be needed to create an impressive aerospace exhibit at the New York World's Fair.

Stuart Constable, Erwin Witt and I met with Messrs. Maino and Brion of Greyhound and reached a tentative agreement on tbe rental payment for an exhibit within Greyhound's operating and maintenance area. This agreement is now being incorporated into an appropriate document by the World's Fair legal staff.

Automation Management held a series of meetings in New York on June 11 and 12 and reports a mild interest in sponsor­ship fr~ other companies in the Trans­portation Field. I consider this vir­tually dead.

Atlantic llefining Company has not responded to this project since the last report. With the ability to include certain Olympic tryout events in this area, we now feel the package becomes more attractive. We intend to recontact other companies who have shown a favor­able inclination.

Status

The Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference met in New York em June 21. A negative decision wae reached for a small individual railroad exhibit at the Fair due to the dire fin&Dcial con• dition of the Eastern l.oacle. The Cen­ference decided not to requeat collabo­ration with the Railroad Suppli.era. After almost two years of strenuous effort 8 it is felt that the Bas tern. hil• road Presidents Conference decision aot to participate should be considered final. This is a areat disaPPQintaent to us not because of the apace invelyed but because of the proposanda value auch an exhibit would afford.

Accompanied by Mr. Motley, we met with Ward Keener, Preaident of Goodrich. Mr. Keener agreed to take another look at the Pair with an open mind if. we could come up with soae method of exhi­biting that would not be too coatly 8JUl would tie in with the "hard sell" that Goodrich feels is neee88ary to sell tires tmder the marketi.Da condition• that currently exist. We are workina on such a plan now.

Accompanied by Mr. Motley, we abo aet with Mro DeYoung, President of Cooclyear, who stated quite firllly that c;oodyear would li.lte to put the "carveycn:" into the Pair but had no interest in. any other exhibit. We are tryi.Da to develop an idea which cCIIbinea the Caneyor with an exhibit.

J olm V. Thornton

u. s. Exhibit

In the absence of General Potter, I submit herewith this report for your consideration for submission to the Executive Committee on the status of the u. S. Exhibit.

(a) Legislation.

The supplemental appropriations bill, containing the World's Fair appropriation· among many others, is still bogged down by the controversy between the House and Senate concerning chairmanship of conference committees, origination of money bills, etc., with which you are familiar. I spoke to Oscar Chapman in Washington on July 3rd and to Jim Delaney today about it. There is nothing new to report. Jim is continuing to do his best and may be able to give us some further word by July lOth.

(b) Plans.

The lates~ information from General Potter's office is that a committee, including Messrs. Winston and IG.otz, has selected the architectural design for the federal exhibit, and architect Luckman's office will have a model of the building available shorUy. A meeting between Mr. Luckman and his staff and Commerce Department officials is to be held in Washington on July lOth to discuss exhibit plans. The model will be available for that meeting. Mr. Pender is trying to arrange a meeting in New York on July 11th or12th at which Fair officials can view the model. As presently designed, the building is said by Mr. Luckman's office to have a portion "which could be left after the Fair. "

(c) Atomic Exhibit.

The meeting you suggested General Potter have with the Brookhaven Laboratory people concerning their ideas on an atomic exhibit as a separate exhibit or in the U. S. pavilion or under private sponsorship will be held upon Gen. Potter's return to the office. Mr. Pender has spoken to Sid Shapiro about it, and they will make arrangements for the meeting.

INDUSTRlAL SECTION

PROGRESS REPORT {as of July 1, 1962)

We are pleased to report that four companies have begun lease negotiations:

1. AMERICAN CYANAlviTD. An exhibit for the Formica Division was approved by the American Cyanamid Executive Committee on June 25. The site reserved is Block 5, Lot 1, approximately 20,000 -sq. feet.

2. EQ.illTABLE UFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY. Mr. John Oates, President of Equitable, has asked that a lease be prepared for Block 8, Lot 5, covering approximately 20, 000 sq. feet. A proposed demo­graphic exhibit is still being studied for costs; Equitable is also considering a building to enclose the exhibit.

3. SKF INDUSTRlES. On June 29th, we received written confirmation that SKF is committing itself to Block 47, Lots 4 and 8 in the Transportation Section. The space will cover 7, 914 sq. ft. and SKF hopes to create an outstanding building for the Fair. We approached SKF in terms· of the Industrial Section, but as a matter of logic they felt they belonged in the Transportation Section. We have therefore assigned this to Mr. Tozzoli • s organization for completion of the lease.

4. WORLD OF TOYS. At the first meeting on lease negotiations, on June 20, 1962, a request was made to change the site from Block 9, Lot 8, to Block 6, Lot 4, covering 20,000 sq. feet. Talks are continuing on terms.

Favorable action is also anticipated from the following:

1. BRISTOL MYERS (CLAIROL DIVISION). A feasibility study is being prepared, and exhibit ideas with cost figures are being readied for presentation to the Board of Directors. A tentative reservation has been made for approximately 10,000 sq. feet.

Page 4

INDUSTRIAL SECTION

PROGRESS REPORT (as of July 1, 1962)

2. PIEL BROTHERS. Cost figures are being studied, but interest is still firm for participation in the Fair. We are holding Block 4, Lots 19 and 21, approximately 22,000 sq. feet. Piel's is also expected to take space in the Transportation Section.

3. "7 UP". Our latest report from J. Walter Thompson, advertising agency for "7 UP", indicates that tbis company may commit itself to Block 18, Lot 2, covering 45,000 sq. feet. J. Walter Thompson has been actively pursuing this account and says "it looks very good".

Promising reactions have also been received from the following:

1. AMERlCAN CAN CO. Previous rejections by American Can have now turned to definite interest if they can obtain distribution for their paper products at the Fair through Brass Rail, Allied Mainten· ance, etc.

2. COLGATE-PALMOLIVE CO. Their Director of PubUc Relations, Mr. Spencer C. Valmy, visited the Fair last week and left enthusiastic. We have held several meeli.ngs with other officials. Colgate is working on ideas.

3. GENERAL MILLS CO. Their cereal division is considering an exhibit.

4. NATIONAL DAIRY CO. The Presidents of their various subsidiaries are scheduled to discuss the FEdr at their meeting in New York within the next two weeks. We have invited them to visit the Fair.

5. SWIFT & CO. Harold Wilson, Vice-President of Swift, and a member of the Exhibitors Committee at the 1939 Fair, has been conferring with Ed Levine of Brass Rail. He looks favorably on participation aiter previous disinterest.

6. WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRlC CORPORATION. They are still working on cost estimates for their exhibit, but their continuing interest is demonstrated by their request for an extension until August 31, 1962 of an option on space on the site of their 1939 Time Capsule.

Mr. Robert Moses

William Whipple, Jr. '/ / Maintenance Buildings.~

DATE: JWle 28t 19 62

On 22 June we opened bids for the five steel sided maintenance buildings. Wilcox and Erickson's estimate for these buildings was $562,000. We received.only three bids:

(1) An incomplete bid il.'om Fellow-Brown Contracting Company;

(2) A complimentary bid of $1, 490,000. from J. R. Stevenson Corp;

(3) A bid of $585,000. il.'om Namron Construction Company.

Informal inquiry indicates that many excellent contractors falled to bid for two reasons:

{1) The fact that we had 31 bidders at our last bid opening;

(2) The fact that we awarded the previous contract to Electronic & Missile Facilities, a type of operator with whom these contractors feel they should not attempt to compete. You will recall that we awarded the contract to Electronic & Missiles for the Security Building only after very serious consideration of their mediocre background and that the full facts of their poor labor relations did not become known until after the contract was awarded. Performance on the job to date has not been satisfactory.

Investigation indicates that Namron Construction Company is a practically unknown subsidiary of Acme Missiles & Construction Corporation, of Rockville Center. Dun and Bradstreet indicates the company to be financially sound, but the owners have little construction experience. We have investigated their performance on three jobs as follows:

(1) They built a portion of pier 8 last year for the Port Authority which was completed reasonably satisfactorily. However, d.iliiculty occurred on account of excessive charges for changes. The job was almost entirely sub-contracted, and the Port Authority had to spend time and money negotiating with sub-contractors.

(2) The FAA gave Acme Missiles a contract for a $2 million dollar flight center at West Islip. Again most of the work was subbed-out. The FAA reports the contractor to be very small claims conscious, and difficult to deal with on this account although the quality of the work apparently is reasonable.

(3} A third project is a site 3 facility at Camp Peary, Virginia. The engineers report that the contractor has initiated extra claims, practically even before construction was started, and that the field construction personnel are not up to good supervisory standards.

A list of jobs conducted since the firm was organized in 1958 indicates only Government jobs and nothing in private industry. Judge Maguire reports that Namron itself is Wlknown to labor and that the parent company has never signed a contract with the carpenters, although they belong to the Long Island Employers Association. We had specified that only a company of known and established reputation would be considered for this contract, whereas it appears from the above that we would be dealing with an unknown subsidiary of a company whose reputation in labor relations and geoo:t:~ performance is barely satisfactory.

The Engineering Division is not staffed to engage in a running battle of claims and arguments with second-rate contractors. The Electronics and Missile Company already puts us in this position for one building. As far as buildings are concerned, open competitive bidding is creating a situation which will make us d with people who need to be watched every -step of the way and in the end enta.' extra costs which would probably more than compensate for the extra cost a contractor. I recommend that we reject the bids we have received on s b and solicit bids instead from a small list of contractors known to be names will be submitted to you for your approval.

The engineer/architect, (Mr. Erickson) and Judge Maguire join in this recommendation.

In order to utilize TV connection points as you previously approved, various exhibitors in each block will have to allow stringing of temporary flexible cables across their lots to serve the more distant exhibits. This matter bas been discussed with Legal Divi.sion, and it bas been 8@'eed that it is necessary to amend the regulations in order to establish this right. Under the proposal, only the edges of the lots will be allowed to be crossed, . and this only when so authorized by the Fair Corporation.

The proposed change is to insert after the first sentence of the second paragraph o:f Section 16, Part 1, of the Special Regulations, (/ the following: AJ A,

"Such poDtion of a participant's premises may also be used Y without charge by the Fair Corporation and, with the per· ~ mission of the Fair Corporation, by other participants for the purpose of the temporary placing of such above ground cables as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the televising o:f features and activities at the space occupied by such other participants.

CONSTRUCTION- WORLD'S FAIR CONTRACTS AND-DESIGN

The contractor for electric cable and substations, Eastern States Electric, is making good progress in installing the first two 5000 KV A transformers and switchgear, which will be adequate to serve loads during the construction period. The first pr\ority portion of the electrical system will be activated to provide electric service for construction of General Motors and Ford exhibits by the first week of August. Telephone conduits and cable are now in place so that service can be provided as needed to most of our early starting exhibitors. Water is also being provided to several exhibitors.

The Security Building was 20% completed on 2 July. Progress has been slow a.nd not altogether satisfactory. Bids received for the five maintenance build­ings were unsatisfactory and have been rejected. This project will be re-bid on 18 July.

Final plans have been approved for the Press Building and bids will be received by the end of July.

Final design has been reviewed and approved for the low tension electrical and communications systems, entrance building (at overpass structure), permanent park pools, second stage roads and curbing and other less important items of permanent construction. It has been decided that the rock base course of first phase roads will be laid as soon as utilities progress permits, in order to faclliate exhibitors construction traffic during the Winter of 1962·63.

The design will have to meet the post-Fair requirement for an open-air dance pavilion as well as tile needs of the Fair. The architects should work closely with Gil Clarke, who can assure coordinatton with requirements of the Park Department. Gil recommends as architects Poor and swankey, who are accustomed to auditorium design and are considered a 1 ut not unduly expensive in their tastes. Mr. Poor is interested, and will be very pleased to undertake the woY.' ur standard terms of 4% of cost for design and 4% for r sian. ·Since the budget estimate for the pavilion is $1, oool ., the architect's total fee will be about $80,000. ~
