All Camp Pike Bids Set
 Aside. Other Bids Received

Little Rock, April 19.-Our delega
 tion in Congress, led by Senator Cara way and Congressman JacoWay, brought the Secretary of War to terms when they entered a vigorous protest against the sale of surplus
 'roperty at Camp Pike for ridicul-
 Isly low figure and considerably :. ,naller than that offered by citizens of Arkansas. In formation was re- ceived Friday that all bids had been set aside and other bids would be re- ceived. This is not local matter with the people of Arkansas, but is in line with the action of Representa- tives from other states who are con-
 vinced that there is something radical ly wrong in the disposition of govern ment property. Resolutions have been introduced in Congress of a more or less sensational character, demanding an investigation, and even the possible impeachment of officials %agh 4E the government is broadly Tinted at. When $4O,OO0 worth of candy is sold for $500 and meat that costs 43c a pound is disposed of for 4c, when buildings that cost millions are sold for scarcely more than the privilege of salvage, the representa- tives of the people who paid for all of this material with Liberty bonds are demanding an accounting.
 Arkansas is directly concerned in this matter Property including build ings and equipment at Camp Pike, which cost at least $4,0OOOOO had been sold to a salvage company of New York City for $338,OOO. Grant
 ng that there had been a very con-
 derable depreciation, the property
 Nould be worth at this time not less .han $1,OO0,O00. It was upon this basis that group of Little Rock bus mess men authorized Governor Me- Rae to make an offer to the govern ment of $4O0,000 for the property. oU6Cldl pOhuCilIo ooy liAoC IiAS offer was not considered so far as can be learned and that the sale was made possible before Governor McRae's of- fer was received. There was an 1n- sistent demand that the matter be re- opened and the Congressional dele gation of Arkansas is expected to see that justice is done. Had the Arkan- sas offer been accepted, it would have been possible for the state to salvage the purchase and make profit Of at last half a million dollars, which 1t was designed should be for the benefit of the Arkansas National Guard. This would enable the Guard to function properly and would have relieved the
