WAR ASSETS ADMINISTRATION SLIPS IN DUMONT ANNOUNCEMENT
War Assets Administration announced Monday that recent newspaper advertisements stating the availability for sale or lease of the Allen B. Dumont Laboratories at Passaic, N.J, were in error.
The plant, bearing a total reported cost to the Government of $342,000, was leased and operated by the Dumont Co. under Navy auspices during the war.
Acting upon information contained in a preliminary declara¬ tion of surplus, WAA, anticipating the receipt of a final declaration, included the facility in a group advertisement with some 30 other installations. However, during the period between the preliminary and final surplus declarations, the Dumont Co. elected to exercise a purchase option contained in its wartime lease and is currently negotiating with the Navy Department for acquisition of the plant.
