Protection for Northwest
Lumbermen by Tariff Asked
Washington, Feb. 8 W) Rep. Mack (R., Wash.), asked the house
ways and means committee today to develop some policy to
protect the western lumber industry and Its employes "against
ruination from Canadian competition."
Mack made public a letter to Chairman Doughton (D., N.C.),
-suggesting this might be accom

struggled to open a stubborn and
heavy shed door at his place, 202
Clay street, early Monday after
noon. The door finally gave
way, broke loose and fell on him,
breaking his ankle.
McCann, who lives alone
managed to crawl into his house
and lay there for over six hours
before a neighbor discovered Ms

Mrs. W. A. VanBuskirk, who
keeps house for him on a part-
time basis, called at 7:30 p.m
and discovered the trouble. She
called the ambulance and Mc
Cann was taken to the Dallas
hospital. His physician states
that he shows no ill effects from
the long wait, and that his con
dition is as good as could be
expected.
Addresses Restored
To Oregon Birth Lists
Portland, Feb. 8 VP) Ad
dresses were restored to birth
lists in newspapers here again
today with the blessing of Dr.
Harold M. Erickson, state health
officer.
They had been omitted yester
day when a vital statistics reg
istrar said publication of the ad
dresses was a violation of the
new state law on the subject.
But a storm of protest broke.
Businesses that that use the ad
dresses for tips diaper serv
ices and others and friends
wanted the addresses restored.
The state officer then relent
ed. He noted the law did not
specifically forbid listing the ad
dresses and left the decision to
local registrars.

plished by restoring a tariff rate
that "would compensate for the
difference of wages in British
Columbia and in the United
States or by imposing a auota
limit on the amount of lumber
Canada is permitted to ship Into
the United States."
Mack told Gouthton that dur
ing 1948 Canada shipped a total
of 96,071,920 feet of lumber to
the Atlantic coast states but that
this jumped to 303,325,459 feet
in 1949. He said the shipments
are steadily increasing.
If this flooding of the Amer
ican Atlantic coast market by
Canadian lumber continues to
increase," Mack said, "and there
is every indication that it will
increase, serious damage will be
done to both the prosperity and
to tne employment of those who
work in the woods and mills."
He said the lumber shipped
from British Columbia to the
Atlantic coast states last year
was valued at approximately
$14,UUU,UU0.
Of this, he continued, about
$7,000,000 was a direct labor
charge, representing a loss of
mat amount to American work
ers.
He also asserted that the ship
ments were made in forelen
tramp vessels, causing a loss of
$!,auo,0O0 to American carriers.
The representative said that
Canadians can undersell Amer
ican lumber mills because, bv
counting devaluation of the
Canadian dollar, the wage they
pay workers Is 97.5 cents an
nour, compared to S1.45 In
Washington and Oregon. He said
using tramp steamers further
gives the Canadians an advan
tage of $6 a thousand feet in
freight rates.
Mack said that to offset these
advantages is the present tariff
duty of $1 a thousand feet of
lumDer, which was lowered from
$4 a thousand.

New Members Sign in Rally
At Chamber of Commerce
An inspirational speech by Charles F. Walker of Portland
sparked a Salem Chamber of Commerce membership rally Tues
day night, and was followed by the signing of a score or more of
new members to the chamber roster.

ber, who kept in contact with
the workers by loud speaker,
groups gathered about the din
inc tables after all the speeches
had been made and signed new
members on the spot.
Others were given member
ship cards, no more lhan two to
each one, and it will be their
immediate job to contact other
prospects among Salem business
men.
The large number of busi
ness men present Tuesday night
who are new arrivals in Salem
was noticeable. Most of them
were signed for membership In
the chamber.
But, said Walker in his ad
dress, "A Chamber of Commerce
won't just go because you sign
your name to the membership
roll. It takes the personal touch
and personal application of ef
fort in behalf of the commu
nity." "No person," said Walker, "can
attend a gathering or join a
club of any kind without real
izing his own responsibility to
the community."
"If you were to take the
Chamber of Commerce out of
Ibis community," he said, "you
would n t have tourists, or high
way development, or many of
the industries you now have."
Other speakers made brief
remarks. James Beard spoke of
the chamber's relation to the
business interests; Ted Cham
bers, on highway development
and the Baldock plan; Hal Swee
ney, on what the chamber has
done for United Air Lines:
Claude Miller, on the help given
Moore Business Forms in lo
cating here; Clyde Everett, for
Oregon Flax Textiles; and
George Lewis, for National Bat
tery. Walter Musgrave and Al
Loucks, rival candidates for
mayor, were introduced.
Dewey Robinson furnished the
music, piano and vocal.
The meeting was opened by
Clair Brown, chamber president,
who introduced James J. Walton
as toastmaster. Walton intro
duced all the ex-presidents of
whom he said: "They aren't
distinguished at all. They are
just guys."
President Brown said that
"with the arrival of so many
new people Salem has never
faced a more important situa
tion than now, and the Cham
ber of Commerce is the instru
ment by which we can show
them our community of inter
est."

QUESTION: I understand
there is a form of automobile
fire and theft insurance which
specifically states the amount
of insurance rather than giv
en as "actual cash value at the
time of lass." Why isn't the
specific value policy a better
one for the average person to
buy? At least you'd know ex
actly what you'd get in case
of loss.
ANSWER: No matter what
amount is stated in the policy,
the insurance company will
not settle for more than the
actual cash value at the time
of loss. No settlement will be
made in such a way as to give
the Insured a profit from an
accident or other kind of loss.
