ARMY INQUIRY
TOLD Of CCC
SABOTAGE
Sand Found in Oil Boxes of
Trucks in Kansas, Gen.
: erals Report Says

Evidence of sabotage of Army
trucks used in CCC work is in the
possession of the War Depart
ment,. the House Military Affairs
subcommittee learned today.
Sand had been poured into the
Bill pits of the motors of II Dodge
trucks used in CCC camps OF
kansas, according to a report
made to the War Department by
Brig. Gen. A. G. Lott, commander
bf Fort Riley. The report was
Identified by Col. B. F. Miller,
chief Of the motor procurement
section of the War Department, a
witness before the committee.
Other Abuses Cited
/ Colonel Miller also said that
many trucks used by the CCC
had been abused chiefly through
operating them at high speed.
Representative Goss (R) of Con-
necticut said he had heard Of
the abuse of truck motors by
diluting their oil with other ma
Eerials.
The subcommittee, which is con-
Quoting an investigation of War
Department purchases, delved
again today into charges that
disqualification Of two leading
manufacturers Of low-priced trucks
had prevented adequate competi-
zion in Army purchases.
The two concerns were the
Ford Motor Car Company, dis
qualified for failure to comply
with the MIRA, and the Chrysler
Motor Car Company, ruled out

statesmen.
Lack Of Competition
Mai. Gen. L. H. Bash, Quar-
Eermaster General, admitted there
was q "deplorable lack Of COM
petition as a result of which it
would be possible for a motor
company to "hold up the Gov
eminent"
Colonel Miller, however, said
he did not believe manufacturers
of the Chevrolet truck had at
tempted to quote higher prices
because their competitors had
been disqualified.
The committee placed in the
records a letter from the Gen
eral Motors Corporation declar'
ng that all units had been in
Structed not to take advantage
of the absence Of competition in
obtaining Government contracts.
Another letter from the North
west Motor Company, agents for
the Ford car in washington,
charged that the Government
had paid an excess of $161,227
for low-priced, automobiles over
the Ford bid after that company
was disqualified.

MIRA UNMOVED
BY CLOSING
Of MILLS
Johnson Expected to Support
Eagle Withdrawal That
Closed Plant

A prediction that Hugh S
Johnson, MIRA chieftain, will re
ject the appeal of the Hartman
hosiery mills of Hartman, Tenn,
for restoration Of its Blue Eagle
was made today by Major George
l.. Berry, division administrator
and General JohnSon's special
representative in the case.
Blame for loss of the Blue
Eagle, which caused the closing
of the Hartman mills last night
and loss of jobs for $50 employees,
was placed on the mill heads by
Major Berry.
Fifteen Point Plan Offered
In an effort to settle the dis
pute, an outgrowth of charges that
the mill violated labor provisions
of the NRA, a 15-point proposal
was submitted by NE2A.
The company, Mayor Barry said,
accepted all but two points. These
were a return of so strikers to
their jobs and setting up Of a
board of mediation to settle labor
disputes. Mayor Barry said:
81 will fight for this program
and L believe the Administrator
will uphold it."
A. r. CLANCY, division admins
traitor, who conferred with mill
heads at Hartman yesterday be-
fore the closing, was to make a
personal report to General john
son.
Deceit Charge Aired
| Meantime, Milton Handler, gem
eral counsel Of the National Labor
Board, maintained silence on
charges of company officials that
he suggested deceit in dealing
with striking union men. An aide
said that statement might be
issued by the board but that the
present intention of Handler was
not to dignity the charge by an
answer.
Board employees asserted that
decisions of the board in the Har.
riman case were unanimous. Mill
officials charged that the Jury"
which heard the Hartman case
was packed by labor leaders.
Brandishing the "big stick" OF
the MIRA, Mr.. CLANCY refused to
restore the Blue Eagle until the
mills had reemployed workers al
legged to have been discharged be-
cause they joined the United Tex
tile Workers Union.
The company, having already
cut it's force more than 300 by a
decline in business, contended this
would necessitate discharging some
of the 653 workers who remained
with the plant.
Unfairness Charged
Serious charges made by A. AS
bury Wright, jr., attorney for the
mills, are to be placed before
General johnson. They included:
A declaration that the De-
partment of Justice had advised
that prosecution of the mills
operators for violation Of the
collective bargaining provisions
of the MIRA was not justified
