Strikers hit

lumber mills
By United Press International
Members of two lumber unions
struck Georgia-Pacific Corp. oper
ations at Coos Bay and Coquille,
Ore., and Samoa, Calif., today,
raising the number of workers
idle in four western states to
about 24,700.
The only hopeful note in the
lumber industry dispute today
was the announcement that Simp
son Timber Co. officials and those
of the unions plan to meet again.
Negotiators for the Lumber and
Sawmill Workers (LSW) and the
International Woodworkers of
America (IWA) talked to repre
sentatives of the company Tues
day in Portland. Company labor
relations administrator James W.
Farmer said "sufficient progress
was made" to merit another
meeting. He did not elaborate.
The IWA set up pickets at
hardboard plants at Coos Bay this
morning, idling about 600 men.
Another 450 were affected when
two plywood plants and a stud
mill were struck at Coquille.
Chemical Plant Operating
A company spokesman said the
Coos Bay chemical plant, whose
workers are represented by an
other union, was operating today.
The strike at G-P's big Samoa
complex in the Eureka area start
ed at midnight when a redwood
lumber mill and a plywood mill
were struck. Some woods crews
joined the strike this morning, but
independent logging contractors in
the redwood forests kept working.
The strike in the northern Cali
fornia operation affected about
1,200 men, a company spokesman
said.
The two unions closed Georgia
Pacific operations at Springfield
and Toledo, Ore., Monday and
Tuesday.
Still in operations are plants at
Olympia, Wash.; Feather Falls
and Woodleaf, Calif.; Pilot Rock,
Ore., and some woods operations
at Toledo.
The dispute centers over wages

contract to replace one which ex
pired June 1.

MOSCOW (UPD Communist
Chinese and Soviet negotiators to
day resumed their ideological
talks despite a steady worsening
of relations between the two Com

The ideological teams met af
ter a 24 - hour recess, during
which Chinese negotiators were
believed to have received fresh
instructions from Peking.
It was believed they were told
to reply to the Soviet attack on
Chinese policy published in Sun
day's Pravda. Since Moscow
made the attack and distributed
it throughout the Communist
world, there has been no full
scale Peking rebuttal.
Diplomats said that further
meetings are unlikely to accomp
lish anything. Some said the Chi
nese may go home without even
the formality of a final meeting.

Althounh she feels like she's

poise and charm.
Comparison with a story-book

Sino-Soviet split
brings comments'
LONDON (UPD The Sino-Soviet
split has brought parallel
cracks in the ranks of Western
Europe's Communist parties,
once solidly united on policy.
Most Communist leaders re
mained loyal to Premier Nikita
S. Khrushchev's peaceful coexis
tence line, and in fact have been
practicing ft as the only means
of gaining ground among prosper
ous European workers.
But since the increasingly bit
ter exchanges of attacks between
Moscow and Peking has brought
their antagonism out into the
open, tiny anti-Khrushchev fac
tions have begun to appear
among European Communists.
In some nations, these splits
are barely noticeable to those
outside the party. In no case do
they appear deep, a United Press
International survey snows.
But In Italy, where pro-Peking
Communists have painted "Viva
Mao" and "Viva Stalin" on walls
in industrial Milan, the leader
ship of the largest Communist
party in Western Europe has had
to take public notice of the prob
lem. Informed sources said Die small
but belligerent anti - Khrushchev
group in the Italian party may
have as many as 30.0110 mem
bers. They said the Peking fac
tion may be planning a congress
of its own in the fall.
The split was expected to em
barrass Communist leader Pal
miro Togliatti but not hurt him
seriously. Party leaders already
have taken action to discipline
the factional ists, but have made
little impression.
A pro - Peking group in the
1 northern city ol Padua replied to
criticism from Rome Tuesday
with this statement "It is time
in Italy to create a revolutionary
party."
In Brussels, a dispute broke out
Tuesday night over which group
of Communists could speak ior
the Belgium's Reds. One group
issued a statement criticizing the
Russian stand. Later in the day,
another group, calling itself the
"majority federation of Brussels"
issued a communique disavowing
the earlier statement as the work
of dissidents.
In France, the Communist par
ty seems to have almost as many
factions as the non Communist
political world.
One organ this month published
the Chinese Communist anti-Russian
letter of June 14th despite
the Soviet Union's efforts, later
abandoned, to suppress it.

major enthusiasms is the equiva

steed, her salt-and-pepper saddle
horse. Dusty.
Horse it "Human"
Dusty, who doesn't know he's a
horse, nuzzles his human friends
over the pasture fence, and begs
for tidbits like oatmeal cookies
and dill pickles.
A capable equestrienne, Anne
got her start as a rider with a
4-H horse club, as flag bearer for
the drill. Her first horse, reliable
and loyal, eventually went to .
horse-heaven, and was replaced
by Dusty. Anne was eager to train
the new horse In the Intricate
maneuvers of the drill. But the
big heartbreak of her young life,
she admits, came when she was
again assigned the duty of carry
ing the club banner!
Anne likes swimming and snow
and water skiing almost as much
as horseback riding, and would
like to be a physical education
teacher. With her usual good bal
ance, she listed English as her
favorite subject, and will enroll at
Marylhurst College this fall, to

U.S. to get
dollars back
by 'luring'
WASHINGTON (UPD The
government today opened an in
tensified campaign to reduce the
balance of payments deficit by
luring dollars away from more
attractive investment markets out
side U.S. borders.
It set off a chain reaction of
economic forces expected to push
up U.S. short-term interest rates
slightly to make them more com
petitive with those of foreign
banks.
The White House announced on
Tuesday that President Kennedy
would give Congress Thursday a
progress report on the U.S. bat
ance of payments problem which
is a source of growing apprehen
sion both here and abroad.
Kennedy is not expected to pre
scribe new, untried medicine. In
stead, it is believed that he will
recommend adhering to the pres
ent policy, only with renewed
efforts.
The United States ended 1962
with a $2.2 billion balance of pay
ments deficit. This shot up to an
estimated annual rate of $3.3 bil
lion during the first three months
of this year.
The payments gap the differ
ence between dollars spent by U.
S. citizens abroad and those that
foreigners spend here has been
serious enough in recent years to
cause a sizable erosion of U.S.
gold stocks.
A good chunk of the deficit re
sults from U.S. capital being en
ticed out of this country by for

The Federal Reserve Board
moved to stem this Tuesday by
authorizing seven reserve banks
to increase the so-called "redis

Congress asked
to help find
jobs for Negroes
WASHINGTON (UPI) AFL-
CIO President George Meany
asked Congress today to help the
Negro find the same job opportu
nities on the assembly line that
he now enjoys on the baseball
field.
In testimony prepared for the
House Judiciary Committee,
Meany supported the administra
tion's request for statutory au
thority for the President's Com
mittee on Equal Employment Opportunity.
But, he said, the best way to
end job discrimination is to pro
vide enough jobs for everyone,
"Equal opportunity is meaning
less without full opportunity,"
Meany said. "Tha real remedy
is iobs for all."
Meany criticized employers, ana
some Negroes, for their approach
to the civil rights problem.
He said he could not accept
some Negro demands for prefer
ential hiring treatment, or "super
seniority, as a way of getting
more jobs. This, he said, snows
"thev are not thinking clearly,"
for more experienced white work
ers could be punished if yr seni
ority was ignored.
Aa for employers, Meany said,
they "are in most dases respon
sible for job discrimination in the
first place." He accused manage
ment of opposing equal job op
portunity legislation and union
supported fair employment poli
cies at local plants.

Although the initial meetings

ces cautioned against undue op

two possible stumbling blocks:
The danger that the Soviets
might try to link a nuclear test
ngrcement with their repeated
call for a non-aggression pact be
tween NATO and tha Communist
Warsaw Pact nations.
The possibility that the Rus
sians might insist on an unpoliced

Board to report
Rails
still
mediation
underway
WASHINGTON (UPI) Back
stage mediation efforts were re
ported in the railroad work rules
dispute today, but management
officials said only congressional
action could avert a nationwide
strike.
The mediation efforts were be
ing made as a special presiden
tial board began writing a report
on its recommendations for set
tling the dispute. The report is
expected to go to President Ken
nedy Friday.
Labor Secretary W. Willard
Wirtz declined to comment on re
ports that board members wore
trying to mediate the dispute, but
informed sources said such ef
forts were being made. i
The railroads have announced
they plan to put into effect new
work rules that would eliminate
about 37,000 (ircmen's jobs. The
unions have threatened to strike
if the new rules are applied.
Both sides have agreed to hold
off any strike action at least un
til July 29 while the presidential
board prepares its recommenda
tions and Kennedy can rubmit
proposals to Congress for settling
the dispute.
The railroad executives issued
a statement Tuesday saying the
only way a strike could be avert
ed by the end of the month was
for Congress to dictate the steps
for settlement of the controversy.
Thnv said leeislation was "t!e
nnlv remaininB means we can see
of heading off a calamitous na
tionwide rail strike."
There waa no reaction at tha
White House to the management
statement, but officials did point
out that the President had made
it clear that he would not ask
for another time extension beyond
Juiy 29.
Wirtz, asked for his reaction to
the railroads' statement, said "I
still think they ought lo be bar
gaining." Kennedy will use the board's
report as a basis for recommen
dations to Congress Monday to
settle the four-year dispute. But
this last-resort tactic offers no
guarantee that legislation can be
enacted in lime to prevent
strike.
