Both of the labor men left a fruitless conference in the governor's office before the session ended. No Progress (Continued from Page 1) "Absolutely nothing has been accomplished. Everything is just the same as it was. But both sides will make a statement." George Brown, state CIO sec retary, denied that CIO officials had ordered the pickets to resort to violence. I feel that the state of Ore gon is being imposed upon by the bringing in of a labor dis pute that has no place in the state. Brown continued. Brown went on to say that the pineapple cargo was destined for California; that never before had pineapple been shipped from Hawaii to any Oregon port other than Portland, and after the present dispute is dissipated, probably The Dalles will never get another shipment of pine apple. Admitting that the cargo was marked for California, Lyle Hickok, president of The Dalles port commission, told the con ference that the barge was wel comed because of the possibility of displaying facilities of the port that would bring future bu siness. Intimation that the pineapple barge will be moved to some Washington port on the Colum bia was given by Gunther F. Krause, attorney for the Ha waiian Pineapple company. Af ter stating that the company did not intend to unload the cargo in The Dalles, Krause was ask ed where the barge would be taken. "The Columbia river is not entirely within the state of Ore gon," he replied. Krause contended that the pineapple cargo was not "hot," maintaining that the federal court in California had ruled that no labor dispute exists on the docks of the west coast that would permit picketing. He also said that the successful unload ing of the cargo would have yielded the Port of The Dalles between $6000 and $7000 after on a return cargo.

McKay Cites Oath of Office We don't want it in Oregon, he said. Winding up the fruitless con ference, Governor McKay an nounced that he was not a labor arbiter "but I will move in wherever violence occurs, whe ther the violence is caused by unions or someone else. My oath of office requires this." Matt Meehan, international representative of the CIO Long shoremen's union, and Fred Ka mahoahoa, Hawai i a n picket, were present in the early part of the conference but departed before the session was conclud ed. Saturday Governor McKay reiterated that he would not take sides in any labor dispute and further stated that he had flatly turned down a request of CIO officials that present and future pineapple barges be de nied a haven in Oregon waters." "I want it clearly understood, he added, "that I will use all of the power of my office and au thority vested in me by Oregon law to see there is no repetition of the shameful happenings at The Dalles, Wednesday."

Coast Watched For Pineapples The Dalles, Ore., Oct. 1 (IP) CIO longshoremen watched the Oregon coast closely today for four new pineapple barges re ported en route from Hawaii. They set up a scouting system to get longshoremen quickly to any port where unloading is at tempted. An airplane and five speed boats were held at points along the coast to investigate any barge-like craft approaching. CIO leaders said they had been tipped the barges were coming. So far the longshoremen have a win and a loss in the battle over pineapple slipped out of strike-bound Hawaii. One barge got into Tillamook bay on the Oregon coast before longshore men detected It. It was unload ed. The other was tied up at The Dalles, but the port commission ordered the barge to move after longshoremen raided the dock, damaged equipment and threw some pineapple into the Colum bia river Wednesday. The Hawaiian Pineapple com pany, owners of the shipment clung stubbornly to hope that the unloading still might be al lowed here. Almost no one else believed it possible. The longshoremen called away their pickets, believing the victory final, and held them in readiness for other scenes.

Salem, Ore., Air Reservists Train in Flying Since the arrival at the Salem Naval Air Facility of the four SNJs from Seattle for use in training air reservists several men from the area served by the facility have been getting in flying time. Most of the men have come from Portland, where they have an advance base outfit under the commandant of the 13th Naval District. Latest from this group (ACORN 13-2) to fly here were Lt. George Bickford, formerly with the Corvallis unit, and Lt. Kenneth Cochran, who Friday were here to fly the planes. Only one member of the Sa lem aviation volunteer unit has used the planes since their ar rival. He is Lt. Ed Schiess. Pre viously other pilots had flown in the one plane that was here as co-pilots with either Lt. Comdr. Wallace Hug or Lt. Stan ley Fallander as the pilots. Under their program to pre pare men for volunteer flying until orders are received clear ing them by reserve headquar ters, men at the Salem facility have arranged for the flight surgeon, Comdr. Lynn M. Ham- merstad, to give physical exam inations to the men every Wed nesday night by appointment. The doctor during an evening can handle approximately 10 men, and has already held two sessions. Crippling Blow (Continued from Pane 11 The big Kaiser Steel company plant at Fontana, Calif., also is operating. A spokesman said ne gotiations are still under way. Portsmouth Steel, with 4000 workers, gave in to union de mands for a 10-cent hourly pack age covering company-paid pen sions and insurance for em ployes. The rest of industry held out for social security programs in which workers would kick in part of the costs. Harrisburg Steel's 1500 workers are on the job because negotiations are con tinuing under a later strike deadline. Allegheny Ludlum, which has 12,000 employes, and Kaiser, with about 4000, are still oper ating because their contracts run until October 15. those firms have not yet received the union's demands. The strike closed 53 steel com panies and 50 iron ore mining firms in what may prove to be one of the most quiet steel strikes in American history. Mills had begun to close down operations as much as two days before the strike deadline. Scat tered wildcat strikes dotted the nation before the scheduled end of the truce asked by President Truman and accepted by both union and industry. Californian Breaks Under USSR Strain A Californian, who apparent ly broke under the strain of worrying about the USSR, was lodged at the Oregon state hos pital Saturday for treatment. Salem police officers, called to the Southern Pacific depot, found the Bakersfield, Calif., resident, wandering around and muttering: "The Russians are trying to get me and I damaged the gener al's car so he couldn't get to the airport. A portion of the man's state ment was true. Police found his car at the depot. The radio aer ial had been torn off. The wind shield wipers had been ripped loose, and air had been released from all four tires.

The present route is 3.2 miles into Silverton, maybe a little less than the new route. The old route doesn't offer a suitable railroad crossing, he said, which would have to be at grade but might be made reasonably safo with automatic signals. The 3.2 miles of the old route. he said, shouldn't cost over $250,. 000 while the appropriation of federal and state funds for the new route is $425,000, including 575, ouu for an overpass, grad ing and paving $290,000 and a new bridge, $60,000. The pres ent bridge on the old route, he says, is a good bridge, not more than three or four years old, and if of suitable standard should save the $60,000 allocated for the bridge on the new route, or a to tal difference in cost of $135, 000, also less than $20,000 for right-of-way. "If there is that difference in cost pointed out," said Judge Murphy, "then it is up to the state highway department and bureau of roads to justify the extra expenditures as they are furnishing the money. "It would seem if that money were saved it might accelerate the award of some other federal aid project in Marion county, or it could be diverted to some oth er project in the county." "As it stands there is no pres ent action to be taken on the petitions, but they will be given serious consideration if the mat ter should come to a head. With the state and government fur nishing the bulk of the funds they have the determining say in the establishment of the road's location." Judge Murphy segregated the names on the remonstrance showing 214 from Silverton; 24, Mt. Angel; Brooks, Monitor and Lyons, 1 each; Woodburn, 4; Pratum, 2; Salem, 15; Scotts Mills, 16, and addresses un known, 75. A statement accom panied the remonstrances saying all the signers are residents of the county. Major Strikes (Continued from Page 1) But there was no sign of a back-to-work directive to the 400,000 bituminous diggers in northern and southern states. They are adhering to the "no pension no work" slogan. Mean while, Lewis is engaged in con tract talks with northern and western operators at White Sul phur Springs, W.Va.
