cuss the case before the session

SEWER INQUIRY
UNLIKELY IN
ARLINGTON

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE,
Va, April Possibility Of Pub
Lie Works Administration investi-
cation into alleged collision Of
four bidders on the 1884 award Of
concrete pipes for Arlington
county's $2,50o,000 sewer system
appeared highly improbable today
as county officials denied any In
tention to request Public Works
Administration officials to con-
duct such q probe.
Officials Of the division Of In
vestigation Of the Public Works
Administration denied reports that
such an investigation had already
been started and said one would
be conducted only in cooperation
with county officials.
Reports Discredited
On the other hand, county Of
ficials in charge Of the sewer
project stated that reports Of the
alleged collision had grown out Of
'cutthroat competition between
certain bidders and that they
were not being seriously consid'
cred by county authorities.
Complaint Of collision. accord
ing to PwA officials. was
prompted by differences in prices
quoted by an Arlington firm on q
later contract involving pipes Of
the Identical type and size.
If the investigation is conducted
by PWA, it was added. the find
ings would be turned over to
county officials to use as they ssw
fit. '
Saving Is Claimed
A saving Of approximately
$4,000 was effected by the county,
according to. county officials, by
permitting the merger Of several
bidders, and the marked decrease
In later bids for the same pipes
was accredited to the "cut-throat
competition" existing between the
bidders.
Unless unexpected evidence Is
forthcoming, county officials con.
Cluded, no request win be made
Of PWA to investigate the bidders
