High Court Orders Bridges' Union to Pay $750,000 Claim WASHINGTON W)-The Supreme Court decided Monday that Harry Bridges' International Longshoremen's union will have to pay $750,000 in damages to an Alaska lumber company. The Juneau Spruce Company of Juneau, Alaska, sued under the Taft-Hartley Labor Act Charging that picketing and coercive state ments by the union damaged its business. The damages were awarded by the Alaskan U. S. District Court, and upheld by the U. S. Circuit Court in San Francisco. Contract With CIO The Alaska corporation said that by picketing and other means the longshoremen's organization tried to force the company to give barge-loading work to its mem bers. Juneau Spruce at that time had a contract with the CIO Wood workers of America. When the Bridges group set up the picket line, the firm told the court, the company's workers at first would not enter the plant. Eventually the Woodworkers Un ion gave its. members permission to cross the line. Later, the long-, shoremen refused - to unload the Juneau firm's products, saying they came from behind a picket line. Unanimous Verdict Justice Douglas, imdelivering the unanimous Court decision, said in part: "Here the jurisdictional row was between the outside union, Bridges' longshoremen, and the in side union, the woodworkers." The longshoremen, who brought the case to the Supreme Court, were trying to get the work which was being done by the woodwork ers, Douglas said. "That competition for work at the expense of employers has been condemned by the Taft-Hartley act," he saia. Whether that con demnation was wise or unwise is not our concern. It represents na tional policy ..." The picketing began April 10, 1948 and ended May 9, 1949. Juneau Spruce told the Supreme Court the longshoremen's activi ties caused more than a million dollars damage to the firm, not taking into account "substantial items such as loss of markets, damage to retail business,' and de tioration in lumber and log stocks."

V- Assessments on County Road Jobs Ordered Assessments were ordered Mon day by Marion County Court on two roads improved last year, fol lowing portests by property own ers, but one assessment was post poned because of an error in com putation. Owners along Rickman Road protested that the final cost was considerably higher than the 'bid or estimate for improvement, and that the county engineer gave no supervision to the project. The assessment was approved, along with that for East Frederick Street, from wiich R. C. Morton appear ed to ask damages for removal of a tree. He was advised to file a claim, not connected with the as sessment hearing. Assessment of costs for Glen wood Drive work was held up be cause the R. L.

STARTING JANUARY 1st ON YOUR SAVINGS ON CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT A Three Year Certificate of Deposit Pays You 2ViPef Annum At Maturity. SALEM BRANCH SIT HATIOHAL BAUK The- Statmaau Salem, Oroqon, At Least One i Change Set In Legislators (Political stories alse en page 1) Marion County probably will have its same two senator in 1953 (they're holdovers), but at least one change in the county's four state representatives appeared cer tain Monday. Speaker of the House John Steelhammer (R) said he did not plan to seek another term "Pve had 12 years of it, and it's costly business." The county's three other Re publican representatives, however. were regarded as in the running Reps. Lee V. Ohmart and Mark Hatfield, who have definitely committed themselves,, and Rep. Roy Houck who is understood to be of the same mind. Hatfield, Houck, Steelhammer and Ohmart finished in that order in the 1951 GOP primary and went on to win all four county legislative seats. Of the four Democratic house nominees in 1950, Lawrence Koch of St. Paul does not plan to run again; P. W. Hale "isn't certain yet it's an expensive thing"; Al vin Whitlaw is quoted as saying he has no plans to be a candidate and Josephine Spaulding has moved to Portland. There were reports that Lloyd Girod of Stayton, who was barely out of the running for fourth place and nomination in the 12 way Republican primary race in 1950, would be a candidate, and former Rep. W. W. Chadwick (R) is known to have been urged to run again. Regarded as one of the strong est possibilities for a Democratic toehold in the all-republican house delegation is Cornelius Bateson of Pratum. Bateson ran a good third in the general elec tion senate race of 1950 when he entered the competition belatedly after the withdrawal of Arthur Davis. Bateson said Monday it was likely he would compete this time for a house seat, although it was indicated he might try for the county assessors hip "unless some other candidate enters the field who would bring efficiency to that office.!' Holdover senators are Republi cans Fred Lamport and Douglas Yeater. Candidates for state offices must file by March 7 for the May 18 primaries. Mt. Angel Cow Sets Record In Production PETERBOROUGH.
