The pickets also faced a re straining order issued yesterday by Judge Edwin Gruber and there were no reports of any interfer ence. The police allowed no one but workers on the mill property.

Donovan, the company's vice president, announced he ex pects no further trouble and plans to reopen the company's Larson sawmill at Lake Whatcom Tues day, December 27. This plant will employ an additional 150 men. Chief Cole said state patrolmen will remain here until "this thing is cured." A number of the of ficers, he said, had been detailed to prowler car duty along with city police because of complaints from members of the independent union that they had been sub jected to midnight visits of rival unionists who sought to intimidate and discourage them from return ing to work. Workers employed in the com pany's cargo plant left the mill for their homes last night with out any trouble after police and deputies forced the pickets some CHRISTMAS GIFTS GOTHAM GOLDSTHIPE HOSIERY The kind she likes to wear .... 79c to $1.35 LOVELY HANDBAGS for evening and afternoon.

Earlier in the day several minor skirmishes occurred. The Bloedel Donovan Lumber mills, one of the largest lumber companies in the Pacific North west, resumed activities a week ago after a shutdown of several months. The cargo mill resumed operations- after workers, originally members of the CIO, withdrew from its affiliation and formed an independent union. The workers voted to accept a pay reduction, which the company said was nec essary if the plant was to operate.

Y.C By The Associated Press The involved question of getting Jews out or bermany moved step forward today with Field Marshal Hermann Wilhelm Goer- ing's invitation to George Rublee, American director of the interna tional refugee office, to visit Ber lin. Informed quarters said Rublee would present counter-proposals to a nazi plan, reported to embrace a two-year scheme for the emigra tion of Germany's Jews. A point of friction between the German and United States govern ments was clarified when Wash ington was notified inheritance credit due Americans on estates of persons deceased in Germany would be transferred in full to the beneficiaries. German exchange restrictions had prevented such transfers, which were understood to be about half the $5,000,000 annual average of American inheritances went to Germany. Dr. Hans Thomscn, German charge d'affaires in Washington, brought the announcement to the at the state department by any at the tsate department by any of the German embassy staff since Ambassador Hans Dieckloff was called to Berlin Nov. 22. Pan-American conference dele gates pondered mutual defense against aggression today while In Spain and China wars pushed wearily on despite wintry weather. A resolution proposed at Lima expressing the determination of American nations to defend one another against aggression was submitted to the various delega- tons with the likelihood it would be acted upon before the weekend. Drafted by Brazil's chief dele gate, the proposal represented a compromise between the United States' desire for a declaration of a united front against any non American aggressor and Argentine insistence that the declaration in clude all aggressors. Adjournment of the conference by Monday or Tuesday was in prospect. In London Prime Minister Chamberlain, meanwhile, studied complaints of alleged incompe tence in British defense ministries. Three aggressive young members of the government were said to be demanding a cabinet shakeup. War Minister Leslie Hore-Belisha and Sir Thomas Inskip, minister for defense coordination, were among those under fire. Japanese Outline Mop-Up Campaign SHANGHAI, Dec. 21. W Japanese army officers today out lined plans for a five-year cam paign designed to pacify North China and establish a strong Chinese government friendly to Japan. It was to help carry out this campaign, they said, troops were being moved northward from the Yangtze valley, slowing the tempo of the war. They said the swiftness of the invasion of North China neces sarily left many unconquered poc kets in which guerrillas were now operating. They based their fore casts of a prolonged mopping-up drive on their experience in Man- choukuo. At present, according to neutral estimates, the Japanese actually control only 13 of Hopeh pro' vince's 130 districts, 31 of Shansi's 105, 30 of Shantung's 109, and five in North Honan. The remainder of the 200,000 square miles north of the Yellow river and the Lunghai railway is held by Chinese irregulars and guerrillas, who are constantly harrassing Japanese communica tion and preventing effective po litical and economic control. This area corresponds roughly In size to the region in the United States including the New England states. New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Ohio.

Appeal Made for Funds to Combat Infantile Paralysis Creation of permanent local agencies to war on infantile paraly sis and aid its victims in the county is this year's aim of the committee for celebration of President Roose velt's birthday, Frank L. Cham bers, county chairman, announced Wednesday. Calling for volunteers "in a great army being mobilized for the pro tection of your children and those of your neighbors," Chairman Chambers appealed to all citizens of Lane county to help raise funds by many forms of community cele brations on the President's fifty seventh birthday next January 30. The immediate need, N. E. Glass, Lane county judge, said in an ap peal broadcast over station KORE is for volunteer co-chairmen and workers to help plan in every com munity many social, civic, sports and theatrical events "for the most important step yet taken In the fight against the disease." "Nobody knows the cause of in fantile paralysis, where or how hard it will strike," Judge Glass said. "It can appear right in your own community, in your own neighborhood, right in your own home. "It causes panic, despair and death; leaves in its wake a pitiful casualty list with bent bodies, withered arms and wasted legs. "The president believes it can be brought under control only if every man, woman and child unite in the common cause. This is a call for volunteers in a great army, Every county chairman will want chairmen in every community; and every community chairman will need a general committee. Every community, no matter how small, should plan some sort of party for the night of January 30. There is no limit to the variety of things you can do hold athletic meets, dancing, basketball games or the atrical performances; invite neigh bors to your home."
