p. j. Currier, president of De-
troit's Currier Lumber Company,
Saturday served notice that his
firm would submit a bid for the

Sidney Hillman. associate director
of the OPM, revealed the federal

Currier said, 81 am certain that

Currier said the price he would
quote for a house 30 by "a feet
would be approximately $3.50,
"the same as the offer we made TO
build 300 houses in Wayne, Mich.
Organized by CIO
Curriers' bid for the WAYNE
project, which was S240,O00 lower
than any other bid. was turned
down by federal officials after
Hillman voiced fears that the con-
tract might upset labor "stabili-
zation" program of OPM.
Curriers' firm is organized by
the CIO, and the government
feared an ALL walkout on defense
projects if Curriers' bid was ac-
cepted.
Hillman has estimated the pro-
posed 10,0OO-home project here
would cost around $50, 000, 900.
"Tf we bid $3.50 per unit"
Currier said, 'the total cost
would be 1880, 900. Even Mr..
HiIIman's dreams should have
some respect for nearly $50. 00O,-
600 OF the public's money"
Currier invited the public TO

Currier raped Frank X. Mar

sorting 10 vicious attacks just for

"Any question Of labor con-
troversy In this matter has been
