ROW OVER STEEL MAY BE WIDENED Trade Commission Awaits Order to Probe P. W. A. Collusion Hint. By the Associated Press. While the Federal Trade Commis- sion awaited orders to investigate hints | of collusion in American steel con- | tract bids, evidence appeared yester- day that the controversy over use of | foreign materials on P. W. A. jobs might widen. Trade Commission officials reported no orders had been received to start the investigation. President Roose- velt and Secretary Ickes both have! said the commission would investigate | what they called apparent evidence of collusion. German steel was bought for two P. W. A. jobs, resulting in| sharp protest by labor and industrial groups. While a United States Chamber of | Commerce spokesman manifested “in- | terest” in foreign purchases, William | Green, president of the American Fed- | eration of Labor, said Ickes’ new regu- lations on foreign purchases “will meet | the situation in a constructive way.” “Collusion Unjustified.” “If the ruling is applied to future | P. W. A. jobs” said the federation | chief, “foreign materials will be pre-| vented from entering the country for | these jobs. There is no justificatjon | for collusion, however. That is just as bad as foreign imports, and the | Federal Trade Commission will take | care of that.” John M. Redpath, chief of research | of the United States Chamber of | Commerce, said the chamber is “ex- tremely interested” in the question. “Not only German steel. but other | things are involved,” he declared. “We | have not taken any formal action in | connection with the matter and will | hold our fire until later on.” He declined to list other materials which he said were “involved” and added the whole matter would have to be taken up with the board of direc- | tors before any formal action or pro- | test. The question of using foreign mate- rials broadened also when P. W. A. officials hinted they would look into the circumstances surrounding the of French cement for New York school | construction financed by P. W. A. No protest has been made, they empha- sized, but Ickes' regulations on the use | ©of foreign materials, affect all alike, Against Foreign Dumping.
