Thla action was taken by unanlmoua : vote of about 25 of the leading camps at a meeting held yesterday afternoon Id the rooms of the chamber of com merce.

Clair of the Twin Fulls com Fiany called the meeting to order,' and n stating the object of their coming to gether reminded the loggers that it was not as an organization that they had met. -but Durelv as Individuals, and that whatever action waa taken must ie practically unanimous to be effective Thlrtv-Der Shutdown. 1 After" discussing - the : market condi tions of loss and lumber at soma lengtn It was agreed that the- best Interests of both loggers and mills would-be met '; by a closing-down of all camps. A dif ferenoe of opinion arose as. to the j length of the shutdown, a number of 'the-larger' concerns favoring a 60-day cessation, but the resolution as finally ..adopted provided ror a je-aay close, .with another meeting -to be held July ; 27 to consider the advisability of a f ur ' ther close unless the log market showed -a material 'Improvement v.. . The second . most Important action . .taken , by the loggers waa a general agreement to maintain the present price ,'of logs and to tiUte whatever action may .be necessary to prevent a further de ' cllne. . The seal agreed upon was that , 'yellow fir shall not be allowed-to go lower, than flO, with St and IS aa the minimum price for bastard and red fir. Contrary to the jeneral expectation, i lt develops that not only do the larger sawmills that maintain their own log ging camps, but, the- Independent mills . that buy logs in the open market, look jwtth favor upon- the action of the Jog i gers In voting to shut down, and express the opinion that It will have a tendency rto steady the lumber market aa well as vbold up the price -of - logs.- ...-.-. W. B. Mackay. manager of the North Tscinc Lumber company, when seen this morning, said: ......... "I approve the action of the loggers In agreeing to curtail their output. Tha market conditions demand soma such drastic action. The California lumber dealers watch the local log market very carefully and gauge their buying orders accordingly.-' Just now, these people be lieve thai the Portland market Is glutted with logs and are trying to cut the cargo price of lumber at the Portland mills." . ' -n- Manager 8. B.' Cobb, of the Standard Box Factory, doea not think that tho smaller mills will be affected by the action of the loggers, unless there be a radical reduction in tne price of logo. When asked to express an opinion as to the probable enrect or tne loggers shut-down on local building develop ment, Portland architects and builders replied that it waa a matter that con cerned the loggers and soma of the mills, but that the building situation would not be appreciably altered unless there was a prolonged Inactivity In the logging camps, a condition hardly pos- siois. .- . ? . .. Believes wares too wiga. Other Important questions cam up for discussion at tne loggers' meeting. among them ' a proposition to make a uniform reduction in wares of from 10 to 20 nor cent. It was the opinion of all present that the loggers" wages nai advances! mora rapidly than had the price of logs, and thai tne time naa oome to call a halt Considerable doubt waa expressed aa to whether any. kind of a wage reduction would be accepted by the men. one logger going ao far aa to say that following a shut-down. It would be very difficult to set logging crews together again, and . that in all probability the old scale would have to be increased ratner man aiminisneo. A resolution was Introduced and adopted raising the price of board in the camps from 14.20 and $4.(0 to fS per TVn the. ororresa of tha meeting It de veloped (bat there are now about 75,000,- vvo I eel oi unauiu ioi luug- moi, which together with those on hand at the mills, is.surricieni to supply me as mand for tha next 60 days. . : Juat before adlournment It was screed that nlllng. spruce and hemlock to fill ordera already In hand or to sup ply absolute requirements or customers, mignv ne cut during in enui-uuwn, Secretary Farrel was Instructed to 1s sua a rail for a meetlna- of all Columbia river loggers in tnis city juiy zv. r i. 1 , A vacation at Jiomev v w Perhaps' iome woman who has looked ''. forward to a, vacation, has .found that she must give It up and the disappoint s ment la keen; However, ; it will do no good, to be glum and disagreeable about "it; small .disappointments may be made ;of account hi building tip a strong, reso- "5 lut and -dependable character.
