Yes. I shall be glad to explain the bill. In 1930 a law was passed with reference to the limitation of costs for the facilities of customs and immigration buildings along the Canadian and Mexican borders. This limitation was $3.000 on those buildings that were operated by one of the units. and $6.000 on those buildings operated by the two units jointly. They have operated under this law since 1930. It is contemplated that within the next 5 years about six of these buildings are to be erected. They are in isolated regions along these borders and this limitation of cost includes not only the building itself. but the purchase of the land. the lighting and sewerage facilities and usually the drilling of a well for water. as well as all of the conveniences and utilities necessary to be provided in these isolated spots.
