Baltimore Aides 10 Testify
On Contracts Without Bids
BY the Assoeiated Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. 22.-The grand
jury convened today to hear city
officials and contractors tell Of cost
plus contracts let for municipal
building and repair contracts with
out bids.
Mayor D'Alesandro called for an
investigation of all such contracts
after some we're questioned by City
Auditor Howard C. Beck, jr.
Frank c. Ellis, president OF the
AFL Building Trades Council, also
was summoned to appear before the
Jury. He has said he advised city
officials many times that some con-
tractors had billed the city more for
labor costs than they actually had
paid the workers.
Mr.. D'Alesandro said it was not
brought to his attention. Under the
cost-plus plan, the city lets small
contracts without bid, and pays the
contractor for time, material and
other expenses and then tacks on a
profit payment. Usually set at 20
pc rcent above the actual cost of the
job.
The Mayor said the city paid out
S448, ,139 for 1900 cost-plus contracts
during the first II months of this

100000 Bond Issue
For West Hyattsvihe
'Firehouse 10 Be Asked

legislation will be sought during
the coming session of the Maryland
General Assembly to authorize a
100000 bond issue for construction
of a new frehouse in West Hyatts-
vile.
The Hyattsville City Council, in
a special meeting last night voted,
5 to /, in favor Of seeking such
legislation, but stipulated that the
authority be granted subject to a
referendum in the community next
May.
City Attorney Nicholas Orem. jr.,
was instructed to prepare the neces-
sary bills.
Would Double Fire Tax.
The motion on the bond issue was
presentet by Councilman Frederick
M. Coxer, chairman of the Councils
Fire Committee. He estimated that
another 10-cent tax on real estate
would have to be added to the pres
ent l0-cent Hyattsville fire tax to
finance the bond issue and increased
operation costs.
Councilman II. Wilson Spicknall
was the only one to oppose the bond
issue. He contended the increased
fire tax would deter the growth OF
the community.
To Buy Old Gas Building.
In another action, the council au-
thorized Mr.. Orem to negotiate for
the purchase of the old gas COM
pany building, next to the Hyatts-
vile Municipal Building and fire.
house, to provide additional space
for municipal Offices.
Mr.. Orem was told to obtain court
approval to use a $4,000 fund set
aside by the late William Pinkney
Magruder for a new library in
Hyattsville towards purchase of the
building, with the understanding
that library would be established
within the structure.
Purchase of new automobile
for the Police Department also was
authroized. The car will be used te
maintain and collect receipts from
the citys 172 parking meters.
