In contrast to yesterday when a
crowd of 400 pickets blocked the

without disturbance. Protection

Chief William Cole, assisted by

The pickets also faced a re
straining order issued yesterday
by Judge Edwin Gruber and there
were no reports of any interfer

but workers on the mill property.
More men than could be used
reported for work and a full crew
of about 350 manned the sawmill.

trucks, blocked yesterday when
women pickets flung themselves
in their path, were making their
regular runs today.
J. N. 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

The Bloedel Donovan Lumber
mills, one of the largest lumber
companies in the Pacific North

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

Nazis Invite U. 5.
Official To Talk
On Jewish Question
90 PROOF-COPR. 1938, SCHENLEY DISTILLERS CORP., N. 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."
