The enemies of this innocently en-
titled bill claim that if made law
it would force the government to
let by contract any construction pro-
ject costing more than $4,000 and
that in time the government would
be. unable to do any of it's own
building or dredging and would be
at the mercy of private contractors.
The matter involves hundreds OF
millions of dollars and the OPPOSE
ton, which includes the army en-
cheering corps, says it threatens to
cost surtaxpayers lot of money.
The committee reported the bill
favorably on December 16 It was
submitted by Chairman Dyer.
And then, even more interesting
than the remarks of Mr.. Cowper,
three dissenting members presented
d minority report in which they in
ferentially accused Dyer of telling
fib.
To Correct certain inaccuracies"
The minority members-Bowling OF
Alabama, Weaver of North Caro-
lima and .Tillman of Arkansas
point to the majority assertion that
the hearings "deve loped that there
was a universal demand for the
carrying out of the principles of
the bill" and that mot one APP
peared before the committee ex-
pressing opposition to the principles
involved"
"As matter of fact, says the
minority boys, "the record shows
that 22 persons appeared favoring
the bill, of whom 20 were con
tractors, one a member of the house
and one person whose interest does
not appear. Three members of the
house appeared who partly approved
and partly disapproved the bill;
or who approved it with modifica-
tions. In opposition to the bill there
appeared one SENATOR four members
of the house, the chief engineer of
the army, a representative of the
navy department. and a representa-
tive of the interior department."
