PULP10D DUPING
PROBE FROWNED OH
McNary Request Brings
Word State Department
Not Likely to act
The state deDartment of the
federal government does not feel
it stiouid conduct an investiga
tion of alleged dumping of pulp
and pulpwood from Canada, Nor
way and Sweden unless concrete
facts, are presented showing evi
dence that would prove dumping.
This answer was the gist of an
extended reply reeclved Thursday
by Senator Charles L. McNary to
a wired request this week asking
for more information. In his tel
egram the senator declares that
mills in the northwest are "com
plaining bitterly against a Dres-
ent situation which leaves them
without orders. They claim
dumping from foreign nations is
responsible for conditions," said
the senator in his message.
Claim In Evidence
Of Damping Found
in the reply from Washington
acknowledgement is made of pe
titions for help received from the
Fuget Sound Pulp & Timber com
pany complaining of the situation
but the .telegram states "the cus
tom service has found no evi
dence Indicating dumping." Ref
erence is made to an Investiga
tion made by the treasury depart
ment in 1928 and J929 when the
question of dumping of pulp and
pulpwood by foreign countries
was up but at that time "the de
partment was unable In any in
stance to establish facts necessary
to constitute dumping."
Senator McNary's secretary, at
Washington conferred with the
treasury department, the customs
service and the state department
following receipt of his wire this

but unwilling to give any state
ment as to the report which h
to be presented to the city coun
cil next Tuesday nkht when the
vacation ordinance comes up
third reading.
John Bayne, leader of the re
monstrators, presented most of
rhe argument against the street
vacation. Bayne contends tbe
council has no legal authority to
vacate anv street. He holds that
the procedure to date, even if au
thority rested in the council for
vacation, has been illegal.
Claims Fry Property
"Particularly Affected:'
Bayne furthr argues that the
property of Dan Fry, Sr., on Ci
mercial street will be particularly
affected by vacation of Trade
street and since Mr. Fry does not
appear as one of the owners of
adjacent property who have con
sented to the street vacation, the
council Is powerless to procede to
grant the 4 3-foot strip of land to
the paper company.
Mr. Fry. appearing personally
before the committee, said he felt
no action could be taken until it
was definitely determined wheth
er or not the names secured eta
more than a score of petitions ,
circulated about the city, consti
tuted two thirds of the ltaT

Mr. Kowite told Fry of the par
tial cneeic on tne petitions muie
