Greeley Raps
Lumber Pacts
Says Trade Treaty Gives
Away Markets While
25,000 Idle
PORTLAND, July lS.-(ff)-W.
B. Greeley of Seattle, secretary
manager of tbe West Coast Lum
bermen's association, confronted
the Tlee-chairmaa of the federal
tariff commission last night with
jthe charge that northwestern
lumbermen "do not feel that
these (reciprocal, trade treaties)
are acts of a government that
takes its forestry seriously."
Appearing at the Institute of
northwest affairs, Greeley de
clared the treaties "gave away"
market when the northwest In
dustry had 25,000 idle workers.
Dr. Henry F. Grady, Washing
ton, D. C, one of the authors of
the treaties said that "before Can
ada would open negotiation at
all she Insisted that some of the
tariff barriers axis ting on her lum
ber be relaxed. Bo we had to start
there. We tried to be as fair with
lumber as with oyery other in
dustry, and I don't believe it can
be said the gorernment is trying
to sabotage industry. - ? ;
German Trade Drops
Grady asserted . if we- dose
our borders to foreign trade, we
will hare to regiment our domes
tie economy as la being done by
the totalitarian states we dislike.
Germany's foreign trade under
inch a plan haa been falling off
rapidly and i're talked with many
Germans who would like to see
an end of the ' program and a
return to normal trading condi
tions. . .
"The only Sray we ean main
tain foreign trade is to continue
our present agreement plan."
Charles Carey, construction en
gineer of the Bonneville project,
told the Institute today lines for
transmission of Bonnerille power
were being built at record low
cost.

New Policy of Voting Is
Hailed as Victory
for AFL
WASHINGTON, July 13.-P)-The
national labor relations
board, In a split decision, engin
eered a major change in policy
today requiring labor unions to
undergo a secret ballot test In
stead of a simple showing of mem
bership ' cards to win exclusive
bargaining rights.
The new policy is hailed by the
American Federation of Labor as
a victory for it. Tbe CIO made no
comment immediately.
The board disclosed its change
of policy in a S to 1 decision or
dering an election within 15 days
for Cudahy Packing Co. employes
In Denver despite a claim by CIO's
packing house workers nnion that
Its membership cards showed It
represented a majority of the
workers. -,
The CIO and the Independent
packing house workers union ; of
Denver will be named on the bal
lot and employes may rote for
'either or neither.
v- Board Member Edwin S. Smith,
Jtarget of much AFL. criticism,
wrote a dissenting opinion, saying
he saw no reason why the board
should not certify the CIO -nnion
without ' an election.
But the board majority. Chair
man J. 'Warren' Madden and the
newly appointed member, William
M. Lelserson said bargaining re
lations would be "more satisfac
tory" If doubts and disagreements
as to the wishes of the employes
were eliminated.

LEOMINSTER, Mass., June 13.
-Pf-lt may have been only an Il
lusion, but thousands of motorists
tonight felt they were getting
something like a preview of the
world of tomorrow when they
drove to an outlying section of
Leominster and let their cars
"roll uphill."
They halted their ears at the
bottom of an apparent 100-foot
upgrade, then released brakes
and felt the car being slowly
"drawn uphill."
Some talked of a mysterious
lodestone in the hill that drew the
cars along, until others dumped
cans of water In the middle of the
grade and the water rolled "up
hill" too.
Small boys who didn't give a
rap for scientific theory "cleaned
up" on the phenomenon by lend
ing bicycles for a quarter for an
-uphill coast." .

strange business career which
Gray described today like this:
" 'Want to buy the storer

and walked out.
"He hasn't been back since.
I don't know where he is and I
haven't paid him the first SJIO."
Since that deal was closed.
Gray has moved the store to a
better location, tripled the
stock, bought a car and got
married.
ORANGE, N. J., July 13.-3V
The idea of a plain-clothes dog
catcher is working out well in
this town in all respects save one.
The dogs turn more often on
William Robinson, the plain
clothesman, than they do on Dog
Warden Ellsworth Smith. Robin
son was hired to assist him on the
theory that the dogs were getting
to know Smith's uniform.
Robinson has been bitten fire
times since April but always, he
says, gets his dog.
