VMR SO WL BE AMERICAN Fraud Are Made as COTHMISSIOH Rejects Plea to Void Contract. Amerlcan materials” must be used in, constructing the $1,500,000 memo- ridl to George Rogers Clark, is Vin- cennes, Ind. This dedisfon was'reached yesterday | Co! by the ecmmission in charge of the project after an acrimonious discus- gion lasting five hours, in whlch the long-standing row over a choice be- tween granite and Indiana limestone brmlghl hcated intercharges, ‘with “fraud” and “scandal” bandied. The. commission, which is headed by Senator Fess of Ohio, rejected by & vote of 9 to 6 a motion by Senator Watson to void the construction con- tract, involving $773,000, on the ground it was conceived in fraud. Wood Charges Fraud. Representative Wood of Indians also charged fraud on the basis that a. sample of granite chosen for fulfiliment of the contract came from a quarry in Canada, while commission members be- u:ved they -were voting for American stone. “This business will be' aired in Con- gress, and if it is, I fear for the memo- rial,” Wood asserted. | ‘The controversy over the choice be- | tween granite and Indiana limestone was thrust forward by an immigration inspector who made & special investi- gatio ted that he doubted American granite would be supplied. S. O. Kivett, :ndmm renruenutlve of the Will R. Heath Construction which is to build the memorial to lhe explorer, testified the whole controversy was “in the interest of the Indiana Limestone Co., the most pumpgnd child | of the industry in Indiana.” Alleges Date Juggling. Kivett said he did business with the limestone company occasionally and sometimes practiced for its ents. “But you've served this child of ours,” he added, shaking his finger at Watson and repeating as he pointed to Wood. Wood insisted that the Stanstead Granite Quarries Co., Inc., of Beebe {!lnl.l;lh Vt., which furnishes mn;dto:lm eath company, was incorporaf y | “after they found they - couldn’t do business with Canadian stone,” and that & lease by Stanstead for stone from another Vermont company was dated before the. incorporation. —————————— UNEMPLOYED RELIEF HEAD IS OPTIMISTIC Wheeler Committee Seeks Plan ‘to Put Normalcy on Perma- nent Basis.
