WASHINGTON, Jan. tl. William II. Davis, national compliancr director, today requested all government agen ies to cease buying from the Morgan Parking Campain, Austin. Ind , fanners, Isvcause hq said the firm had not igned nor complied with the president’s re-employment agreement. . At the same time Davis announced establishment hy the treasury of a precedent under which no firm getting a government order and signing the re employment agreement might deliver material producer! before it "ent under the blue eagle. The question was decided on a contract given the Schneider Brick and Tile company of Slidqll, La , which did sign an agieement until after it got a contract to supply brick for new construction at the national home for lepers at Carville, Da. In the Morgan case Davis unlicuiii ed that he had asked the depiitimjnt of justice to investigate charge that tip; firm, despite failure to sign or comply with the blue eagle agreement, had sought to justify recent price increases by atliibuting them to thq “national recovery program.” Davis said the Morgan concern had been a large supplier of the civilian conservation m i ps and other federal agencies. IVivis pointed out that the great majority of fruit and vegetable packers had signed the president's agreement and had berm complying. He said the Moigan company was alleged to have excelled the .maximum hours prescribed hy the agreement, paid its employes le .- than the minimum rate and in addition to have employed children in its plant.
