A couple of things...
The users_controller will, by default, use the User model, so there is no need
to declare it in the $uses array in the controller or to loadModel('User').
If you set up a relationship between the User model and the Comp model (why
isn't that the Company model - why is your table called comps not companies?)
then you can access it via the User model: $this->User->Company
You don't seem to be using the Auth component, which will handle user
authentication for you.
I'd recommend that you walk through the early parts of the second tutorial
(http://book.cakephp.org/view/1543/Simple-Acl-controlled-Application) which
will help you through this.
