WARREN GETS PAVING
Contract Awarded Aftcy Long; Die
russlon and Hrrcral VoU
After voluminous legal opinion bad
been submitted by counsel for thu
opposing bidders and after long dis
cussion and several rotes, tho cltv
council last night awarded tho paving
contract for seven units to h? Wnr
ren ConstrueUon company, orer W.
D. Miller, whoso bid was approxi
mately $5,000 lower.
Tho Warren company's bid waa fin
ally accepted on motion of Council
man McCollum. The first voto en thli
motloncs'ultej In a tie, Vollme'f not
voting. Tho roil was called and Smith
McCollum and Vollmer Toted ye
Hawkins and West, no.
Prior to tho final rota there ""
skirmishing, opening with n motion
for tho rejection of both bids, o
wblch Smith, McCollum and Haw
kins voted no. The next proposal wn
Smith's motion that tho Warren hM
bo accepted, lost for want of a second
Hawkins then moved that tl!l'
bid bo accepted. This waa seeonrY
by McCollum and defeatod by tr-e
votes of 8mlth, West and Vollmer
Then came th'e final voto.
Mayor Opposes Delay
Councilman Vollmer'a proposal to
reject both bids was met by a strong
plea from Mayor Wiley for definite
action by the council. The mayor
pointed out tho benefit to the city un
der present economic conditions, with
many men out of employment, of r
public Improvement program that
would ease tho situation and put Idle
men to work.
Tho rejoction ot Mlller'a bid waa
based on tho ground that the Warren
Construction company was a morn
certain bidder; could handle the big
bond Issue roqulred 'and tho city
would escapo tho uncertainty of sell
ing tho securities In the open market,
In which It might lose more In prem
ium than they would gain In the dif
ference between bids.
Miller, on tho other hand, declar
ed ho was actually able to carry
through and finance the contract If
h obtained It. and submitted evi
dence and legal decisions to show that
ho wag entitled to the award.
