NORTHWEST EACEO
BY STRIKE,
Seattle, Aug. 31 (U.R) A
strike of more than 60000 Paci
fic northwest AFL lumber work
ers was forecast by union lead
ers today as the national labor
relations board began sorting
30,000 ballots from the first two
scheduled strike votes involving
Washington, Oregon, Idaho,
Montana and northern Califor
nia workers.
Its office jammed with sacks
of ballots received before the
deadline last midnight, the
NLRB said results of the ballot
ing would not be known until
Sept. 6. Union leaders, however,
have warned they planned to
strike regardless of the outcome,
to enforce their demand for 20
cent hourly wage increases.
Ballots now in the hands of
the NLRB were cast by workers
In 330 northwest lumber com
panies and the Willamette val
ley district council in Oregon. A
second vote has been called for
the Klamath basin in southern
Oregon with a Sept. I deadline.

The meeting took place In a

where RCacArtluir and his staff
awaited Walnwright's arrival.
"Well, I'm glad to see vou,"

EASE
E PILOTS
WERE YOUNG JAPS
Yokosuk Naval Base, Aug. 31
U.R) Specially-trained Japan
ese suicide pilots were recruited
for the highly-advertised "special ;
attack corps" from volunteers
and pilots who had no choice in
the matter, it was learned today.
Yagiu N l o y u k i, reported
"most of the volunteers were
younger pilots." "They were giv-
Len special discipline for the sui-;
cide jobs along with pilots irom
units arbitrarily chosen by thei
high command."
"The people believe that cap-!
tured Japanese are disgraced if
they come home, but I feel sorry '
for them because they put up a
good fight," Naoyuki said. "In-!
tellectuals, however, do not feel .
this way and would welcome j
home a Japanese who was cap-!
tured."
Naoyuki said that towards the i
end the Japanese were exhaust- j
ed and felt the war was going!
against them. They knew they ,
were definitely licked when the
big Superfortress raids started
in Mav, he added, and the atomic j
bomb was the chief reason they!
