UPH0LDS
LOW BID REJECTION
Decision Based on Compli.
ance With WaIsh.HeaIey
Act on U. S. Contracts.

Overriding finding by the Labor
Department, Acting Controller Gen.
eral Elliott, In decision made public
yesterday, held that low bidder can
be denied a Government contract be-
cause of certain exceptions to the
Walsh-Healey act.
As a result, the State Department
will pay approximately $25 $50 for two
tractors for the International Bound
airy COMMISSIONER the second low
bidder, instead of the bottom figure
of $24,740.
The issue was raised by the Tri-
State Equipment Co.. which took ex-
ception to two sections of the act. one
dealing with responsibility by SUBJ
contractors and the other with the
keeping of records of contractor and
subcontractor.
According to the correspondence
made public in the decision, Gerard
Reilly, assistant solicitor of the Labor
Department, had informed a repre-
sentative of Tri-State that exceptions
oii ACIOlo hCCPurs dliu ICopOiloibhiey Aoi
| subcontractors cannot be considered
SUFFICIENT basis in any respect for
passing over low bids"
Dissenting, Elliott said:
1T is plain that contractors with
the Government must be required to
keep, and the Secretary of Labor or
her designated representative must
have access to. proper employment
and other records"
He also held that the bidder in this
instance is actually representative
of the manufacturer. In consequence.
Elliott continued, the low bid must
be rejected and the business given to
the Mcclure Co., the Sec
ond low bidder. if its bid, agreeing
with the Walsh Healy act, otherwise
meets specifications.

H. E. Caranfa took a quick look, pulled
out his revolver and shot the reptile
through the head.
Apparently no one had thought Of it
before, but after the officer fired the
shot everybody realized they hadn't
really seen the snake move at all. Ex-
aiming the snake. they decided it
probably had been dead for some time.
Where the snake came from or what
kind it was. no one could say.
Zoo officials said none had escaped
from the reptile house there. A snake
of that size. they said. might be a
boa constructor, python. a type of rat
tier or an indigo snake-or maybe
! something else.

in this area were being rear
ranged today after being stripped
of furnishings late yesterday as
q forest fire which destroyed sew
eral other homes threatened
them.
More than q dozen fire COM
panies from Fairfax and Airing
ton counties and Alexandria city
were summoned to protect the
threatened homes.
!: Efforts Of the firemen were
confined chiefly to beating back
the flames which approached the
! thinly scattered houses in this
!, area.
Four Homes Saved
Four houses in the Fort Ward
Heights section were saved from
= flames which had swept through
; five or six miles Of forest as the
Alexandria fire company entered
the fight. These were the homes
Of Frank L. CowleS, r. o. Gar.
riQues, Don Peer and E. j. Cook.
, Largest Of the several small
homes destroyed was that Of
Thomas Terrett, several miles
!. back from the LeeSburg Pike ct
BaileyS Cross Roads.
;, An unidentified woman and two
small children were rescued after
i. they had broken through the
brush fire and rushed to, their
house to salvage personal belong
ingS. The firemen had to use gas
masks to get the trio out Of the
: dense smoke area.
WIND Fans Flames
!. Swept by q brisk wind the flames
jumped over the LeeSburg Pike
and entered a 580-acre tract Of
forest land. Only one house in
this area was threatened, and it
was saved after firemen had held
