EXPECTDELAYED AWARD
in ARMOR PLANT CASE
Postponement of Alexandria Hearing
Puts Off Final Consideration.

Owing to the fact that the Alexandria
delegation boosting that city's claims
for selection as the site of the govern
ment's 81, 10000 armor plate plant has
postponed the date OF the submission of
its claims to the Navy Department, final
decision as to the ward will be delayed.
Instead OF presenting its claims on
Tuesday, as. originally intended, the Vir-
ginia city will not visit the Naval Board
until Thursday of this week. AS this is
the final city to be heard the board will,
on that date, begin the comparison Of the
various briefs submitted by cities
throughout the country.
NJ. B. Harlow, chairman of the commit
tee representing Alexandria, following a
meeting of the committee yesterday.
made the announcement that his commit
tee will seek a conference with the busi-
ness men of this city In an effort to
urge them TO form combination to
further the claims OF Alexandria.
The Alexandria committee, in its brief,
cites the fact that every advantage listed
by Washington would apply equally as
strong for the Virginia city. The fact
that at present Alexandria has no smoke
law such as in effect in Washington, is
also listed as a particular advantage for
their city.
