Say Contract Should Have Been 
Given to Local Concern 
The Breeze is in receipt of a com- 
munication from two citizens of 
Manchester which upbraids_ the 
board of selectmen for awarding a 
contract recently for the work of 
installing the underground wires 
for the fire alarm system and for 
the police boxes. The contract was 
awarded several weeks ago to 
LeBarron of Arlington for some $2,- 
600.. The figure given by a local 
concern was some $64 more than 
that. The communication went on 
to say that such a small difference in 
such a large contract ought to be 
overlooked when the choice lay be- 
tween an out-of-town concern and 
a local concern. The former did 
nothing to help the in-town busi- 
neess, buying supplies from lvcal 
merchants, and the like, while the 
local concern had men who _ lived 
here and were voters here and who 
ought naturally to be favored when- 
ever the opportunity was _ present- 
ed. The opinion was_ expressed 
that the board of town officers are 
not carrying out the wishes of the 
average voter of the town when 
they do things of this nature.
