ABLE AS BONDSMEN Revival of 1808 law on bondsmen for army contracts
Secretary Root issues enforcement of the 1808 law barring congress members as bondmen on army contracts. The move follows Littauer investigations and aims to root out congressional influence in contract letting. It cites a $3,000,000 Cleveland public building contract and bids for Maine granite versus Ohio sandstone where Hanna advocated the Ohio bid. The Cleveland stone company president is Representative Jacob A. Beicher of Ohio.
