SEATTLE, July 2S Infor mation from Washington, D. C, received here by the West Coast Lumbermen's association, disclosed that the U. S. customs bureau Is directing all collectors to assess a duty of one dollar a thousand on Canadian lumber, whether rough or dreshed, pending formal and final action by officials. This action, according to the association, means that one dol lar a thousand board feet duty will now be paid on all rough lum ber formerly free coming from Canada; with the lumber subject to an additional excise tax, as levied by the last congress of $3.00 per thousand board feet, making total customs' charge of $4.00 per thousand board feet. The additional duty of - $1 per thousand on rough lumber is in retaliation of the 3 per cent spe cial excise tax on all lumber im ported from the United States an nounced July 13 by the Canadian government. "Under the supervis ion of the 1930 tariff act rough lumber from Canada was listed as free because Canada admitted rough lumber from the United States without charge. Thresher Trouble?

The operator informed Ford he had sent for a mechunic to rauke repairs. "I know a little about thctto en gines." said Ford. "Let's go to work on it." Ihe motor manufacturer shed his coat and vest, crnwled about the threshing rig, tore down tho steam ejector, and put it together again. The engine ran perfectly. Just about that time the mechanic arrived. "We won't need you," said Ford. Navy Plane Hits Ship In Maneuver SAN DIEGO. July 2S.
