Silver Falls IEU Urges Roosevelt !
To Drop Donald Wakefield Smith j
V From NLRB; Charges Favoritism
SILVERTON At its regular business meeting here
last night the Silver Falls Local 28, Industrial Employes Un
ion of more than 300 members unanimously adoDted a resolti-
tion to President Roosevelt asking that Donald Wakefield
represents more than 500 IumberO
workers. j
.Without naming either the CIO
or AF of L, the men charged Mr.
Smith with hopeless bias in favor
of orthodox labor unions over in
dependent unions.
The resolution said in part:
Excerpts of Resolution . -
"The Industrial Employees un
ion is the only labor onion In the
northwest lumber : Industry that
had stood firm In following the
prime recovery program point you
have reiterated: .that is high wa
ges for consuming workers.-
"The lumber Industry the two
orthodox 'unions $ have failed dis
mally In support of your high
wage point. In one case instances
of sub-standard ! wages i tolerated
by orthodox union leaders show
this unions self-frustrating efforts
are effectual as the cat on the tin
roof for maintaining decent wage
scale. .'. ... ,-, " .
. At the behest; of the low-wage
hlearchy of unionist orthodoxy
the National Labor Relations
Board has engaged in a protracted
invidious campaign against the
Industrial Employes union. . . .
(and ) ; has persistently, blatantly
shown' hopeless bias In favor of
the- two orthodox unions, especial
ly the first-mentioned, based on
the erroneous assumption that
only the wet-nursed orthodox un
ions are capable to work for basic
union principles and high wages.
"With the ending of the Labor
Board term of inexperienced, in
ept Donald Wakefield Smith this
month, once chance to partially
eliminate the board's bias arises."
The local IEU elected Al Noren
to serve a two-year term in the
seven-man arbitration board set
up at the wage board meeting and
heard a report of 22 new mem
bers, bringing the total in this lo
cal to 340. i ; '

water system Improvements at
Scio was forwarded this week to
C. C. Hockley, administrator of
the PWA at Portland. A special
election at Scio is to be held
September: 2 on the proposal to
issue $12,000 bonds for the

In view of the fact that Scio
still -owes something like $9,000
on an old debt of approximately
$70,000, doubt is expressed here
by some as to whether the bond
proposal will carry at Scio. ? -

Federal Hop Forecast Lowered to
37,920,000 Pounds From Earlier
? Higher Estimate of 3910,000
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12.-(P)
The; American . hop. growing in
dustry, located entirely along the
Pacific coast, got what was a sur
prise to some growers today in
a lower crop estimate than that
made last month.'.
The federal forecast was cut to
37,929.000 pounds from " 39,
310,000. 4 i -'V t.r- -. v
The reduction was principally
apparent in Oregon, which grows
more than half the nation's hops.
There was a small reduction in
Washington, but no change from
July estimates In California.
Some growers and field inspec
tors had expected an increase, on
the basis of less damage from
mildew than looked likely -earlier
In the season.' Prediction , of the
37,920.000? pound crop came a
day - after orders from Washing
ton to limit sales to 28.500,000
pounds. "
Oregon s new estimate of 19,
350,000 pounds compared with
the July estimate of 20.425.000,
and the 1937 crop of 23.400.000.
Some of the crop went nn har
vested last year, not: only In Ore
gon but In California and Wash
ington as welL - :
Washington's estimate was re
duced to 8.010,000. pounds from
the ' July forecast of 8,325,000.
Last- year the crop was around
9,744,000 pounds. ' ? -' v - t ?
California's estimate" was '10,-

was figured at 10,880,900.

J. B. Chapman, general superin

said toda the Spanish war proved
the truth of a sentiment once
voiced by the Duke of Welling

less tragic than a defeat."
Chapman, who came here, from
Wollostan, Mass., to address the
north Pacific camp, said Spain
was ruined 4n almost every sense
of the word and that the side
which wins will lose, "as much as
its opponent." He predicted that
if Franco won he would never be
able to form a government.
