The two most seriously Injured
were Norris Farringer, 20, Ya

by smoke, and Fred Dux, 49, Bell

Lumber Industry
Wages Not To Be
Upped This Year
PORTLAND, May 13. UB No
general wage increase in the turn
ber industry this year.
That was the agreement reach
ed by employers and the CIO In
ternatlonal Woodworkers of Am
erica for the area from Belling
ham to north of Eugene yester
day. It is expected to set the
pattern lor the industry.
There may be minor pay ad
justments. For one thing, the
agreement set up a night shift
differential of four cents an hour
and overtime pay for holidays.
For another, the Question of
pay in certain wage classifications
was reterred to companies and lo
cal unions, lor settlement.
Although it is expected to be
only a lormamy, ttie agreement
must be ratified by individual em
ployers and local unions. Its ac
ceptance was recommended by
CIO negotiators and the Lumber
men's Industrial Relations Com
mittee. They had been in negotiation
more than three months. When
the meetings began, there was
talk of a 17'A-cent demand by
the union. A slack winter lum
ber market apparently killed
whatever chance there was of
that.
It left the base pay at S1.45
hourly in the industry. The agree
ment will run to April 1, cover
ing about 21,000 Western Ore
gon and Washington workers.
Continued neeotiatlons with
the new agreement before them
as a pattern were scheduled by
the union and the Pine Indus
trial Relations Committee at Kla
math Falls today, and Willamette
valley and Oregon Coast opera
ators next wek.

this will be inclined to offer them
assistance in crossing streets or
giving tnem lniormation that will
be helpful; and
"Whereas, the white cane is a
signal to drivers of all types of
vehicles that the person carrying
it is witnout vision and the law
provides that such person has
right-of-way in crossine streets
and that drivers will stop their

a social point of view to call at
