EUGENE, onCGON Trucker Hits Oregon Laws (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) tion agency," Mr. Rodgers assert- ed, "particularly at a time when every transportation facility is urgently needed. The Oregon law means that a truck and trail er, starting out with a load in Seattle bound for San Francisco, roust operate through Oregon with space sufficient to hold 14,000 pounds of freight empty. And that 14,000 pounds of freight, if the equipment is loaded to ca pacity, must be transferred to another truck at the Oregon state line. Cargo Total Now Large "This at a time when the trucks are carrying more cargo than they ever have carried and are hav ing great difficulty getting new equipment; at a time when the' nation cannot afford to waste any of its transportation facilities; - and at a time when the railroads , face a shortage of equipment which, as a result, will place a heavier volume of freight on motor transportation." Mr. Rodgers charged that laws like Oregon's have slowed down production. Estimating that truck operators spend $5,000,000 annually on special permits to move loads in excess of the state limits, the trucking leader charged that ' many restrictive statutes were ?ut on the books by the railroads, n Iowa, he charged, the rails actually loaned scales, on which to weigh trucks, to the municipal authorities until they had col. leeted sufficient money in fines Ito buy their own. In Wyoming this year, he added, the railroad lobby succeeded in defeating by one vote a bill to liberalize that state's weight law.

Dean Morse stressed the fact that arbitration procedure, follow ing a "rapidly developing body of labor arbitration law," calls for a consideration of the dispute on the basis of evidence and the pro visions of the agreement setting up arbitration. Under such a system the arbitrator is governed by law, not "opinion." v Restrictive legislation against labor, suggested by some of the delegates in the question-answer discussion after the regular spaech, was termed "no good" by the dean. He pointed out that all such measures will eventually break down, through the united effort of labor and popular opinion sup porting the labor movement. In this classification he included compulsory arbitration, which he felt would not be conducive to "sound and lasting labor rela tions." He also warned the secretaries and trade executives that satis factory labor relations can not be established "but suits for dam ages," after questioners asked it there could not be set up ma chinery to provide employers with redress for damages as the result of labor actions. Dean Morse admitted that the balance was all in favor of the unions under present laws and regulations, but he pointed out that "the public with increasing knowledge of labor disputes, is going to demand more and more that the parties involved resort to peaceful methods rather than di rect action." The law school head pointed out to the group that when an employer goes into an arbitration agreement he is going to be bound by the decisions Of the apritretor. He also advised that employers in drawing up agreements provide machinery for the quick and easy selection of an arbitrator. The best method, he suggested, was to allow some government agency to pick the individual. Citicism of this method of set tling labor disputes on the grounds that it is too expensive are not well-founded, Dean Morse declar ed, when a critic takes into con sideration, the much greater cost at actual shutdowns. One Of the first principals of arbitration pro ceedings is that work shall resume immediately while the case is be ing argued, he added. He advised employers to get the "best brains they can hire" to present their cases. He said "the old argument that the union is at a disadvantage in proceedings is dead." Able and skillful men now rep resent labor, requiring that just (as able counsel be provided for employers, he stated. i The dean declared that arbitra tion "should be sparingly used as a last resort," Final class of the week-long meeting was held Friday after noon with Irving Terrell, Oakland, Cal., addressing the group. Examinations of the "students" took place during the afternoon. The western Institute next year will be held at the University of Southern California.

Two more high government offi cials were gone from the capital today amid rumors of a confer ence between President Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Win ston Churchill. They were Undersecretary of Sumner Welles, administration spokesman in several key moves against the axis recently, and Ma j. James H. Burns, right-hand man of Harry L. Hopkins, lend-lease co-ordinator. The state department said that Welles had left for "a short rest," but declined to say where he was going. There was no information as to Burns' whereabouts. Asso ciates said they were "surprised" to find the general gone. H. left as interest of the capi tal was aroused by the absence Of President Roosevelt's top-rank-in military and naval advisers. Only -Secretary of Navy Frank Knox had been located in York Harbor; Me.. The whereabouts of Admiral Harold R. stark, emei of naval operations, Gen. George C. Marshall, army chief of staff, and Gen. H. H. Arnold, assistant chief-of-staff, in charge of army air-forces,., were still a secret. -. Only cryptic announcements came, from the navy regarding the cruise Of President Roosevelt and his party along the New Eng land coast. Failure of the mes sages to mention specifically that the president was abroad his yacht, Potomac, led some persons to believe that he had transferred to a navy vessel to be sped to the conference. Government officials still de clined to confirm Or deny the re ports of the strategy conference between the heads of the two governments. . President May Be Asked To End Strike , J j y WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. (U.R Defense agencies prepared a re port today which may be the basis of action by President Roosevelt to re-open the struck Federal Shipbuilding and Drydock Corp., Shipyards at Kearny, N. J. Officials said that immediate resumption of work at the ship yards was imperative because the corporation holds J450,ooo,ooo or navy and maritime commission contracts for ships. The president could use his au thority as commander-in-chief of the armed forces to seize the ship yard. He exercised htat author ity to re-open the North American Aviation company plant at Ingle wood, Cal., which had been Closed by a strike. The launching of three vessels, including the 6,000-ton cruiser At lanta, already has been delayed by the strike of 16,000 members of the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipyard Workers (CIO). The defense mediation board said that it has exhausted the au thority provided by the executive order creating it, and the next move must be taken by Mr. Roose velt unless an agreement is reach ed in the meantime. velopments, "but we are Immea surably better equipped for de fense now than in 1939.

Authorities at Mojave obtained the number of the car, Oregon 353-449, and the bureau of motor licenses at Salem, Ore., found the plates had been issued; to Reeves, who resides at 711 Southeast 11th avenue, Portland. Reeves was reached at his bar ber Shop. He said as far as he knew the car was still in his garage at home. "I put it there last Sunday," he said. "I haven't used it since." Reeves telephoned his wife, who took a look, and replied: "It's gone." Reeves said It was the second such occurrance. "The last time," he said, "the thieves got in an accident; I didn't know the car was stolen until I read about the accident.' I don't use a car much."

A bomb explosion near a water front dugout caved in the shelter and killed more than 15 Chinese and injured at least as many more. Air raid wardens dug to rescue trapped survivors. Some of the eight raiding forma tions flew directly over the safety zone on the south bank of the Yangtze river, but no bombs were dropped there. It was the 24th raid of what is called the "bombing season" here. east of the old Czarist capital, and penetrated to the gulf of Finland. It true, this would indicate that tahe Russian-held capital of Es tonia, Tallinn, is cut off by land. It would mean, too, that the Rus sian Baltic fleet was in jeopardy from German guns pressing to ward its big base at Kronstadt Hitler's field headquarters also declared that German and Finnish roops driving on Leningrad from the north, in giant squeeze man euver, were "making further sue. ceisful progress." iroeau rnreaieaea London military quarter! said there were indications that the Germans were advancing into southwest Russia in a move to en circle the key port at Odessa, on the Black sea, and that the main Odessa-Kiev railroad Unit aad been cut Meanwhile, the possibility arose that Russian warplanes had bombed Berlin during the night for the first time in the war. The Germans reported that hos tile planes attacked the. capital overnight for the 80th time, kill. Ing some civilians and inflicting minor property damage. London officials said the, RAF had not raided Berlin. From their nearest bases, either in Estonia or in the Smolensk sec tor, Soviet planet would have to fly more than 600 miles to raid Berlin 1,200 miles rouna trip. "Fairy Tales" The Soviet high command, of. ficially labelling Hitler's claims of vast successes as "Araman xairy tales,' declared that the 48-day-old struggle had cost the Germans more than 1,500,000 men against 600,000 Soviet losses, and termed the blitzkrieg a complete failure. According to Soviet figures, the ratio of nazi losses would be near ly 3-1, or about the normal toll for an attacking army. Russian military dispatches again reported fierce overnight fighting in the familiar sectors of Kakitalmi, 75 miles north of Len ingrad; Smolensk, 230 miles west of Moscow; Bel Tserkov, 50 miles southwest of Kiev; and in Estonia. The Soviet high command, eoun ering nazi claims of having broken the Stalin line, declared that ac tually no such llnTofTr ever exist-H i"?
