'Mi|itaryBuying
|CurbsPushed
BY the Associated Press

Chairman Vinson. Democrat
of Georgia, of the House Armed
Services Committee, told mill
Itary procurement officials today
he is prepared to put more teeth
If necessary into a bill he is spon-
soring to cut down buying with
out competitive bids.
Mr. Vinson spoke as the COM
mittee began hearings on his bill.
The measure would terminate
the blanket authority for the
military to negotiate contracts
under the provisions of Presi-
dent Humans 1850 Korean War
emergency PROCLAMATION.
Mr.. Vinson said a study of 80
months of armed services buying,
concluded late last year, showed
that 94.91 per cent of the con-
tracts entered into by the serv-
ices. except for some engineer
ing construction work, were ne
Igotiated without advertised bids.
His bill provides that blanket
authority to dispense with adj
vertised bids be given the armed
services only If Congress. rather
than the President. declares an
emergency.
Mr.. Vinson noted that the law
provides Is specific grounds for
buying by negotiation, including
military secrecy and lack Of sup
pliers. He said he understands
some procurement officers are
making up a list of things that
could be done under those pro-
visions and he is prepared to add
to his bill safeguards against
overuse of these exceptions.

ment that at least so per cent Of
all contracts be let by advertised

Iof Capital Transit Co. to the
National City Lines caused Mr.
Bell to terminate the work on
his plan.
The execution Of the contract
between the Capital Transit Co
and National City Lines is con-
tingent upon approval of the
contract by at least two-thirds
OF the stockholders of Capital

that the physical inventory and

Capital Transit Co. itself cannot
undertake a binding commit
ment to continue service on Au-

its stockholders; that the COM
pany rejection Of the Bell plan
which was under negotiation
constitutes a rejection of that
particular basis for extending
the franchise: that the contract
OF sale to National City Lines

tinuation of the Capital Transit

applicant for operation of the
