Governor Martin of Oregon stepped
into the Pacific northwest lumber
strike today with a pledge of protec
tion, either by stale police or the
national guard, for factories manufac
turing by-products of lumber neces
sary to operations of industries or
farms.
In Salem tbe governor declared "it
is up to local auihoritiets to preserve
order anil protect life and property in
such deputes ns the present one in
volving the lumber industry, and use
of either tbe state Police or the na
tional guard will le resorted to in in
stances of violence where local offi
cers demonstrate that they cannot or
will not cope with the situation."
Berry Growers Worried
The statement was made in reply to
a query from the La Comb (Linn
county) Berry (.rowers association,
which was concerned over a shortage
of crntce. and boxes for harvesting.
The Pncifit: northwest strike, which

of the box factories.
Meanwhile in Portland two plants
did reopen this morning with about
1(M employes going back to work at
the manufacture of baskets and con
tainers for the berry harvost. In
Ptiyallup, Wash., another euch fac

the M. & K. Wood Working compnny
mill where .'" men returned to work

threats by pickets. It was announc
ed the mill employes had joined tbe
union.
The big Stimson mill near Forest
Grove, Ore., was o pern ting again on

Bitter Debate Marks Call

Bonus Message
WASHINGTON, May 21. (P)
As the ciipitol hftnrd that President
Roosevelt would reject nny proposal
for full nnd immediate pnyment of the
Ihiiius, plans for a joint congressional
session tomorrow to receivo tbg veto
messoge on the Pntman bill were
blocked temporarily nt least by Sen
ntora Steiwer (R., Ore.) and Irfnc
(D., U.)
Steiwer held up action on the reso
lution to authorize the joint session
for almost an hour with a speech de
nouncing it as unconstitutional and
merely a "stage serting.'
Gives F. D. Too Much "Play."
He said the idea wns "contrnry t
the spirit of our form of government"
in that it would give the chief execu
tive's veto greater influence than it
was designed to hnve.
Senator Tydings (D.. Md.), then
launched into a long discussion of for
eign trade when Img refused to per
mit nn immediate vole on the resolu
tion for a joint session. t
Senator Robinson, democratic lead
er who called up the resolution, con
tended there was no limitatioi. in the
constitution against joint Hussions
whenever the two "houses chose to
hnve them.
Frod Sticks to Point
Steiwer said nothing is to be gain
ed by the sennte in taking up its
time for that purose."
The Oregon senator conceded tho
president had n right, if he chose, to;
deliver his message In person to the
house Instead of sending it but con
tended the joint session would be "in
violation of tbe constitution."
"I can see no reason why the senate
should volunteer to do this extra con
stitution, this extra legal, thing, just
to provide a stage setting for a mora
effective veto. We have no business
there."
Democrat Much Incensed
Senntors Clork !.. Mo.); C.in
nally (D Tex.) nnd Hnrkeley U.,
questioned tbe Oregon member
repeatedly, each contending the pres
ident had a.-right to rend his message
to a Joint meeting.
Clark urged under Steiwer's theory
a branch of congress could "stop a.
president's message at the door" nnd
hold up A ucasage until it was found
out what was in it.
