in the district all paid up, of whom
only three were not lumber workers.
Both sides litve out Moure&
Hutei snid tbeir records showed 65
union members out of 60 employed in
the Chambers woods and 17 out of
72 employed in the Chambers mill
141 out of the total of 1H1 men em
ployed In the Woodard operation; 23
out of 25 in the Bohemia woods and
4 out of 45 fn the Bohemia mill. The
rest of the 3u9 paid up members, he
sars, come mainly from four other
wills in the district, which are not
Involved In the strike, their policies
being: considered satisfactory for the
present. '
On the other side William Garoutte
for the Bohemia mill said only 22 out
of 26 woods employes were affected
and only 4 out of 55 in the mill; for
the Chambers comnnrjy, J H. Cham
bers said his records showed only 35
out of 09 in the woods affected anl
only feven out of 84 in the mill. For
the Woodard concern, F. W. Blickle
made this statement:
"Inasmuch as we are not operating
we have no accurate check as to how
many are on strike. The morning the
strike started we blew the starting
whistle. Many employes were on hand
to go to work, while many were not.
Because there were not enough to op
crate the plant completely, we closed
.down."
Union Makes 'Statement
For the union, Fred I lot is gave out
Thursday this prepared statement:
The dispute between mill operators
nd the union is not such as to pe
clude early settlement of the strike,
according to union officials of the
Rawmill and Timber Workers Union,
No. 2627, A. F. L Cottage Grove.
Wsge demands submitted to em
ployers average approximately 30
per cent under the Portland and pa
cific coast schedules, this differen
tial made necessary by reason of
additional freight which inland mills
must assume.
In addition to wage demands which
begin with a 50 cents the hour mini
mum, and which represents a small
increase from 2 cents to 5 cents
over that now being paid by employ
era, they are demanding recognition
of the union, a forty hour maximum
working week with time ane one
half for overtime.' This does not
mean that the employer Is compelled
to furnish a full 'Working week of
40 hours. It means that the em
ployers agree not to work their men
for more than 40 hours In any one I
week, unless they are willing to pay I
time and one-half for overtime be
yond the maximuxm 40 hour week. I
The reason for this demand Is that
will have a tendenry to fnrnish
employment to a greater number of
men, aince employers are not apt to
' pay for overtime and will put
additional men to take care of any
business where additional work
necessary. ,
Another much disputed point which
la not perfectly clear to the average
reader is the demand for union rec
ognition. Recognition of the union
doea not mean a closed shop. It
merely indicates that the employer
agrees to bargain collectively with
tht union ao long a It represents
the majority of the employes. It does
not exclude non-union men from ob
talnlng employment.
- Latest word from Portland Is that
Mr. Marsh, federal mediator, will be
sent hero aome time during the
week. Mr. Marh was largely respon
sible for the settlement of the strike
at Tacoma, where employers signed
an agreement with the union effect
ing a complete settlement of all diffi
culties Involved.
8o elated were both employers and
employes of the Tacoma area with
settlement of their difficulties that a
big picnic waa staged at Pt. Defiance
park where both employers and em
ployes participated.

Mr. Tbeda said that news of Up v.
Mr. Palmer's resignation was entirely
unexpected by the board and that no
one at all was being considered to fill
post A meeting of the church
will be held soon to look for a new
pastor. "It Is with deepest regret that
we received Rev. Mr. Palmer's resig
nation," said Mr. Tbeda. "and his
departure will not only be felt keenly
by the church members but by the
whole community."
Ho came from Pullman, Wash.,
here be was pastor for five years.
receding that ho was pastor of a
community church at Spntgue, Wash,,
for three years.
Rev. Mr. Palmer took his college.
work at tionzngu college, Spokane,
being the first Protestaut to graduate
from that institution. Ho took his post j
the university of Chicago and the
Chicago Theological seminary.
N bile In Eugene, Itev. Mr. Palmer

which is eipected to get in full swing
this fall.
"We may not win that battle,'' sa:
Col. Greeley, "but even if we do not
win we can feel that we have mad
great headway with our case. The
major railroads both east an dwest of
Chicago have, been sold on the propo
sition and that is a great step for
ward:
Col. Greely also outlined the prompt
steps being taken to meet the efforts
of Canadian importers to break down
the $5 excise tax on heavy timbers,
citing this situation as ilustrating th
need of constant co-operation
It was a hopeful picture Col.
CrMey painted for the lumbermen,
"We are not a dead or dying indus
try," be said, "It is true we shall have
to meet the aggressive sales tactics of
the makers of lumber substitutes by
oppressive action to sell lumber. W
shall have to meet the competition of
fabricated bousing, but we have a ma
terial second to none, and the out
look is for the best trade in years If
we work together."
Col. Greely explained bow the use
of new "ring couplings" has brought
almost' overnight a tremendous new
demand for structural timbers. He
showed pictures of a new radio tower
in Virginia, the highest structure of
its kind in the world, made of tim
bers, considered superior to any other
structure of the kind because of its
natural Insulating finalities.
"We have already had Inquiries from
35 big radio stations for such struc
tures, he said.
The promotion campaign will be
supported by a voluntary levy of 4
cents a thousand on all logs and 4
cents a thousand on all lumber cut by
members. Efforts are being made to
bring all separate Jogging concerns
and also all lumber wholesalers Into
co-operation. The assessment is some
what lower than originally planned
due to industry losses during the
strike, but Col. Greeley snid he believ
ed it would be ample to get the cam
paign well under way.
In a round-robin discussion of the
program many of those present ex
pressed the opinion that the promotion
assessment was too ow. All agreed
that aggressive action was needed.
Reports of members shows present
orders on the decline generally, but
most mills of operation confidently
expecting a big fol pickup.
Col. Greeley said that although the
government program had been slow in
starting the cost encouraging factor
was the big natural increase In pri
vately financed Homebuilding through
out the country.

tion. In August each year the earth
encounters this swarm of meteors.
Traveling at high speed (many miles
per second) they become luminous at
heights of about 70 miles when heat
ed by friction in our atmosphere and
are consumed before reaching the
earth.
Karly In the evening Peraens will
bo low In the sky a little east of
north; by dawn It will be nearly over
head. It will not be necessary to look
toward Perseus to set the meteors.
Fine ones may be seen in all parts
of the, sky. They all more, however,
in such directions ss to "seem" to
have come from Perseus. The best
displays will be seen after midnight
yet evening observations are often
quite Interesting.
The term "meteor shower" leads
many to expect too much. At the time
ox maximum display about 7U per
honr fa the average to be expected.
Some express disappointment be
cause very few are seen. One may
walk around and glance at the sky a
great deal and yet not 'seem to have
very good results. As each meteor
laats only a fraction of a second, It
can easily be missed if one is not giv
ing constant attention to the sky.
In order to see the most, certain
rules must be observed: Watch after
midnight. Seat yourself in a reclinine
chair so that' you can easily watch a
section of the sky from the zenith to
the horizon. Get away from city
lights, f Bright moonlight also inter
feres). Keep your eyes constantly on
the sky.
All who have systematically watch
ed the Perseids are familiar with
their tendency to come in bunches,
Often none will be seen for five min
utes or more than several during the
next minute or two. Last year 15
minutes elapsed at one time without
the sight of one. Then suddenly very
brilliant one gave the signal for re
newed activity. Several times four or
five were seen in one minute. Once
three came in less than 10 seconds.
It will be noticed that the meteors
which are seen the farthest from Per
seus sweep over longer arcs of sky
than those nenrer. Last year one was
seen right in Perseus. It seemed to
have practically no motion but just a
sudden brightening. It was coming di
rectly toward the observer.
ine most meteors will be seen on
the nights starting August 10, 11 and
12. Some may be seen several nights
before and after these dates.
Last year the best came on the
morning of August 12. The writer
counted those seen in the southeast
quarter of the sky for two hours each
on the mornings of August 12 and 13.
The first morning 114 meteors were
seen; the next, only 72 a decided
falling off.
It is likely that this year the best
evening counts may be made August
11: the best morning. August 12.
Bright moonlight will interfere dur
ing the evening and blot out nil but
the brighter ones. On the morning of
August 11 the moon will set shortly
fter 1 a. m.: the next morning, about
an hour later. The aky will thus be
dark both mornings for some time be
fore dawn.
The American ' Meteor Society
(headquarters at the University of
Pennsylvania) is always glad to get
hourly counta of these pieteors. Pos
tal enrd reports sent to the writer at
the University of Oregon in Eugene
will be appreciated.
