Hundreds” of Cases Submitted to Justice Offipials. Bs the Associated Press. . Justice Department officials sald today they were investigating “hun- dreds and hundreds” of cases in which firms, seeking Government con= tracts for ln;plymu construction ma- terial, submicted identical bids. How many of the bids could be termed “collusive,” however, officials declined to say until the investigation | is complete. Responsibility for inquiring into bids which might be collusive rests with the Justice Department’s anti- trust division, headed by Assistant Attorney General John Dickinson. He has assigned two attorneys to full- time work on the inquiry and three others, with several clerical assist- ants, to part-time work. In some instances, as in a recent case of identical steel bids, officials have gone into the fleld to examine company books. The remainder of the work is done here. Every effort has been made, a spokesman for the department said yesterday, “to be | co-operative.” | “Our investigations are simpy fact- finding. We are not doing detective work,” he said. e Marriage Licenses. George. W. Thom: Ida M.
