Edmund F. ManSure, admins
traitor of General Services, thus
explained the purpose of the new
program, officially known as
GSA General Regulation No. Is:
There is no room in Govern
ment contracting for criminal
and fraudulent operators, and
our new regulation will help lis
keep them out. Chiselers, sharp
sters and labor law violators are
the principal targets.
1.-THE primary goal is to safe
guard the Government from
awarding contracts to bidders
with q history of wilful viola
tions. A shield against crooked
competition the new regulation
also will benefit law-abiding,
reputable and honest business
men. Moreover, it contains ade-
quate provisions assuring the in
nocent protection from unWar-
ranted action and ground1ess
charges.
There are three main points
which merit full understanding.
The new regulation sets up uni
form standards for placing
names on debarred lists, requires
the executive agencies to keep
consolidated lists of debarred
bidders, and provides for the ex-
change Of current debarment in
formation with GSA as the re-
sponsible clearinghouse. These
are the means by which contrac-
tors debarred by one agency can
be prevented from walking in an
other to pick up contracts fig
ured on fraudulent, illegal and
unfair practices"

Stocks Turn Lower
After Early Gains;
Is Heavy

NEW YORK, Aug. S lP).The
stock market turned downward
today after a firm start.
Aircrafts and a wide variety
of low-priced issues found good
early support. Shortly after the
opening the ticker tape fell be-
hind, but it cleared in minute
and a more selective tone pre-
vailed.
Toward the end of the morn
ing, losses began to appear among
stocks which have been market
leaders in recent sessions. BY
early afternoon. it was apparent
that many investors were taking
profits on many issues. Trading
continued rapid.
Low-priced stock tended to
hold early gains. But steels, mo-
tors. rubbers, railroads and
chemicals declined. Some losses
extended to three points, but
most were around a point. Air
crafts became irregular while
io-television and airline is
sues steadied.
National Dairy climbed to a
new high of 80 after the COM
pany announced a two-for lone
stock split and a scent in
crease in the quarterly dividend.
But then it backed away and
showed a loss for the session.
Others on the downgrade were
United States Steel, General Mo-
tors, Chrysler, Goodrich, Amer
lean Telephone. American Smelt-
ing, International Paper, Gen.
eral Dynamics, Atchison, Balti-
more g. Ohio and Loew's.
Holding firm were Radio Corp,
Boeing. Chance Vought, Amer
lean Wooden, Consolidated Nat
ural Gas, Western Union, Para
mount, Twentieth Century-Fox,
Pan American Always and Bull
lard.
The corporate bond market
inched upward. Government
obligations leaned to the down.
side on expected administration
requests to raise the national
debt ceiling.
