LUMBERMEN TO
MEET IN TACOMA
BKATT1.B, Wash., Nov. IO— A
mass meeting of the Weat Coeat
lumber Industry, called by the Weat
Coast Lumbermen's association,
will be held at Tacoma, Wash., on
November 12.
T»v> very important questions
will be dealt with at the meeting,
according to the letter of notifies
tion sent out by Col W. B. Greeley,
secretary-manager of the associa­
tion. The meeting will be attended
by loggers, lumber manufacturers
and shingle producers, one subject
Is the production and employment
problems of the northwest lumber
Industry under the present econ
omic conditions. While the United
States Timber Conservation Board,
appointed by President Hoover to
consider problems of the lumber
Industry, has urged the reduction
of mill lumber stocks, the pressure
of local conditions has led many
operators to continue operations
of their plants to provide a certain
amount of employment. Linked
with this situation is the critical
problem represented by the drift
of the industry toward lower and
lower wages, which ia important
both from the standpoint of labor
and the effort of the Industry to
hold the price of its products from
further collapse.
