FORT GEORGE C. MEADE,
Md., March 20-;P)-Army officials
Thursday were investigating what
they called "prolonged and skill
ful - sabotaging" of construction
work at this army camp.
; Camp officials disclosed ; that
uprights - in camp barracks had
been sawed through so that they
would collapse under heavy loads,
spokes had been driven into elec
tric cables , in an apparent effort
to cause short circuits and start
lires, and cement pillars had been
weakened.
; Army officers in charge of con
struction said the sabotage was
the work of men who knew their
business,- and not the work of
disgruntled laborers.
A military guard has been
thrown around the barracks.
SEATTLE, March 2b-(JP-A
labor dispute between the AFL's
Lumber and Sawmill Workers'
union and the Weyerhaeuser Tim
ber company, which has led to a
10-day shutdown of barracks and
hangar construction work at the
army's big Snohomish county air
base, headed Thursday night to
ward the new U. S. mediation
board.
E. S. Jackson, federal concili
ator, said after a conference be
tween union and company repre
sentatives that he had recom
mended to the Secretary of Labor
that the Weyerhaeuser dispute be
given speedy . consideration by the
board which was named yester
day. The dispute has kept the Sno
Qualmie Falls mill shut down
since last October 28. Its reper
cussions hit the air base when
AFL carpenters refused to handle
lumber from the Weyerhaeuser
mills at Everett after the sawmill
union had branded it as "hot."
As a result of today's develop
ments, Harry Lundeberg, presi
dent of, the Sailors' union f the
Pacificjwho flew here from San
Francisco, said he would order
immediate release of the Weyerhaeuser-
steamer Heffron. It has
been tied up here for 12 weeks
because of a picket line placed
by the sawmill union.
The sawmill union has demand
ed a union shop, a 5-cent hourly
wage increase and a week's vaca
tion with pay, the terms to which
other operators agreed in settle
ment of a widespread two-state
lumber "strike last December.

A few hours before jj his body

married only last December, and
he had brought her to Kenya for

Ini it, Major Broughton was
quoted as saying that ie and his

marriage, in which he promsied
to leave her if they even disagreed.
Accordingly, he said he made

Study Urged in Flood Control
And Fish in Willamette Area
The problem of controlling Willamette valley flood waters
and protecting fish life are issues that must be "weighed one
against the other" and some solution reached, Dr. Warren D.
Smith, professor of geology at the University of Oregon, Eugene,
told the Salem chapter of the Geo
logical Society of the Oregon
Country at Willamette university
Thursday night.
This valley, he said, is dupli
cated gealogically and climatically
by only two others in the world,
the Po in Italy and the Grand
Vale in Chile. Its streams' heavy
flows must be checked at the
headwaters if continuing erosion
of the alluvium that constitutes
the valley floor is to be curbed,

cheering his every goal and pass,
the ex-Stanford star 'paced his
San Francisco Olympic club into

a 58-36 triumph over the tall Se

Jurges, who has been receiving
medical treatment here for two
weeks, said he "believed he was
going to be all right from now
on." He had suffered a recur
rence of dizzy spells suffered as
a result of being hit by a pitched
ball last summer.
"Once a flood gets started down
the valley, all hell can't stop it,"
the professor said, in explaining
why a majority of the Willamette
project dams are to be located in
Lane county.
Dr. Smith did not take sides
on the question of whether or not
these dams would ruin the salmon
runs, but insisted that most ser
ious study should be given toward
protection of valley lands from
destruction by high water.
