CURB ORDERED
ON BUYING OF
GARAGE Chief
Manlove Purchases Trucks
for State From Highest
Bidding Concern.
ORR DEMANDS ACTION
Halt Called on Practice
Last Year, but Ruling
Was ignored.

A. H. Hinkle, maintenance super
intendent Of the state highway de-
partment, under whom the motor
transport division now functions,
announced today that the system
of permitting the garage superin-
tendent to receive and tabulate bids
on motor equipment is to be aban-
doned.
Such action will be in line with
recommendations made by the state
board of accounts.
Lawrence F.. Orr, chief examiner
of the accounts board, today de-
clared he will urge the commission
to take immediate action in the
matter. 1t was recommended first
by field examiners of the board Of
accounts in 1923, he pointed out.
At that time the commission ap-
proved the report and recommended
ton, but the reception Of bids at
the garage has continued.
Manloye Buys Trucks
Under the highway law the bids
should be handled by the director
and commissioners, Orr pointed out
Cmer S. Manlove, highway garage
superintendent, had charge Of bids
received early this week on snow
plows and four wheel trucks.
Five F. w. D. trucks were bought
Wednesday. When one of the lower
bidding companies called him by
telephone Manlove replied:
81 bought those F. w. DIS"
It had been reported several days
earlier that this would be the re-
suit, although the F'our-Wheel-
Drive Auto Company of Clintonville,
Wis, makers of F. w. D. trucks sub
mitted the highest, rather than the
lowest, bid.
Hinkle defended the award on
the ground that it was the truck
best suited to their use. They are
used to drag snow plows on northern
Indiana roads.
Called Unfair Award
One of the bidders declared to-
day that the commission can pro-
cure F. w. D. trucks for almost
nothing from the federal govern
ment and that the only change
needed would be to equip them with
pneumatic rather than hard tires.
He contends the award is abso-
lntely unfair to the lower bidders
and will discourage further compe-
tition.
Eleven snow-plows were bought
from the Baker Manufacturing
Company, Springfield, o.

it is indicated. The defendant COM
pany is expected to try to show that
the death OF Amick, former Scipio

cidental.
The company, 1T is said, will
stress the fact Amick's bank closed
its doors shortly after his death,
condition of his business affairs
and the fact that he drove his auto
mobile directly in front of the train
