U, S. SHIPYARDS
OCEAN MAIL CONTRACT TO THE
j LOWEST BIDDER; AWARDS
HELD UP MONTHS
WASHINGTON, Nov., 29. (/P)—
The inter-departmental committee
| of Ocean Mail contracts has
worked out a pian of action which
Postmaster General Brown said
I should fill the American shipyards
[to capacity with new construction
[within the next six months.
The Postmaster General said the
committee had decided to award
ocean mail contracts to the lowest
bidder. The awards have been held
ip for 3 months because a ques
tion of whether companies which
have bought ships from the ship
ping board should not be favored,
regardless of whether they were
low bidders.
