Employes of the plywood and door division of Simpson Logging Co. at McCleary, Wash., voted 9-1 for a strike, their business agent P. H. Motz, reported Thursday. A number of locals still are to vote. Among these are large locals at Tacoma and Roseburg, which have set their balloting for Satur-1 dav and Sunday.
