CONTRACTOR ASKS
FOR INJUNCTION
d. c. Commissioners Ordered
To Answer Hyman's
Charges.

The District Commissioners were
ordered. .yestsEday by Justice Bailey
in Equity court to appear next Mon
day and show cause why they should
not be enjoined from awarding the
contract for the superstructure Of
the new Eastern High School. at
Seventeenth and B streets northeast.
to any contractor other than George
Hyman.
Through Attorney w. Gwynn
Gardiner, Hyman Informed the
court that the bids for this work
were opened on October IS last.
and, he claims, 1t was found that
his bid was s15,soo less than one
submitted by another contractor,
George E. Wyne. The Commits
sioners have agreed to accept
Wyne's bid. Hyman declares. in
spite of the fact that he bid less.
This action, he claims. reflects on
his ability and integrity as a con-
tractor, besides costing the people
of the District s15,S00 more than
actually necessary.
Corporation Counsel Stephens Is
pi eparing the Commissioners an
swer to Hyman's charges. Commits
sioner Keller in his report claimed
that Hyman did not possess the ex-
perience necessary to complete the
construction and said that there
were grounds to believe that Hyman
had been guilty Of collusive bidding
with James L. Parsons, another To-
cal builder.
