Los Angeles, March 30, 1951 20-334-1 Mr. 2. ft. Bennetts We have completed examination o f B&B and Track Gang d istrib u tio n s fo r year 1950, and have attempted to support with actual d is trib u tio n the percentages shown in b i l l against Las Vegas Land & Mater Co. for D ivisio n Superintendence. Sue to the fact supervisory forces do not keep a d a ily d is trib u ­tion of th e ir time showing exactly what percentages of work they are supervising, we are unable to state percentages shown can be substantiated by the record. I am confident that i f supervision is required to maintain such a record percentages in each case would be high­er, re su ltin g in added yearly charge to the Las Vegas Lend & "Water Co. Your attention Is c a lle d to the fact that super­visio n cannot be compared or ju s tifie d by man hours performed in any given percentage of work program. This is due to the fa ct that Inspections and examinations are constantly being made by supervisors and n atu rally w ill not be supported by gang man hours or m aterial used. Percentages shown In our b i l l against Las Vegas Land & Water Co. are as follow s, and are supported by number of days supervision per year the percentage represents: Superintendent ) Secretary Chief Clerk Secretary Asst.C&def Clerk S t a t is t ic a l Clerk 1 p i ) 1$ o f #32,815.20 ) I 328.15 If days year A sst.S upt . -La g?egas Chief Clerk ) 2% o f 12,628.56 258.57 3 days year Engineering Field Force-Las Vegas ) 2^ o f 7,169.44 143.19 6 days year Headmaster (Fire Protection) 4jS Of 5,280.00 211,20 12 days year D iv isio n Engineer Chief Clerk )) 5#„ Of 41,241.72 2062.09 15 days year M. ofW.
