The plan provides for house-to- • house canvassing of the District by volunteer workers, according to Charles J. Columbus, executive THE WASHINGTON TIMES secretary, to determine the kind and amount of work available. The association indorsed a bill presented to the House by Repre sentative E. W. Goss of Connec ticut to prevent “bid peddling" by contractors in connection with 1 Federal projects. The measure is designed to kill the alleged practise of contractors of “squeez ; ing out” sub-contractors upon whose estimates the Job was ob i tained.
