chologically, and perhaps mlll-tarily.-'
Wedemever arrived In the

for Chungking from Hamilton

command.
He said he thourht the Ameri

possible U. S. intervention In

"I note a certain lack of
objectivity," Wedemeyer said.
"Reports should he weighed
carefully In terms of tho report
ers' own ideology. There is no
doubt that thu turn of events in
an area embracing half the

perhap- ml'itnrlly."

MOST STRIKERS IN
TAKE OTHER JOBS
Portland. Ore., Oct. 30 U.R)
Reports from AFL district
councils today Indicated that
most of the 60,000 strikers in
Pacific northwer operations
have gone to work In other In
dustries, AFL spokesmen revealed.
More than 250 district repre
sentatives went into a second
day of conferencej on the five-week-old
strike, voting to step
up their battle against "hot"
lumber until the tleup te settled.
Strike chairman, John Chrls-
tenson said the overall survey
of conditions in Oregon, Wash
ington, Idaho, Montana- and
northern California shows that
a high percentage of the AFL
lumber workers have gone Into
other work for higher wages.
He tald that executive boards
report the "rank and file of
workers have no desire to re
turn to wo'k under the poor
working conditions In the lum
ber ' industry until operators
meet our wage demands."
The AFL Is seeking $1.10
minimum per hour on an Industry-wide
basis. There has been
little attemot to meet on a com
mon ground and building Indus
try renorts showed a dwindling
supply of labor and the nearing
of a iuilt on major construction
projects.
There was no apparent pro
gress in CIO negotiations with
operators for a 25 rent wage In
crease, with CIO unionists stay
ing nn their Jobs.

STRIKE PENALTIES
ARE FAVORED BY
Washington, Oct. 30 (U.R)
The House Military Affairs com
mittee today approved legisla
tion to penalize labor unions for
striking in violation of contract.
The bill also would reneal
strike-vote and federal plant
seizure provisions of the Smith
Connally anti-strike law. In ap
proving the legislation, the com
mittee in effect rewrote the
Smith-Connally act.
In addition to proposing penal
ties for striking In violation of
contract, the bill would extend
the current ban against political
contributions by corporations
and labor unions to cover prim
aries as well as elections involv
ing candidates for federal office.
The new provisions were of
fered by Rep. Leslie C. Arends,
R., 111., who told reporters they
did not constitute "labor bait
ing." Arends said he thought the
new political contributions ban
would apply to the CIO political
action committee. Under the
provision, he said, such an or
ganization could not "make any
contributions, expend any sums,
aid in solicitation of funds or
levy any assessments" on mem
bers of affiliates for any prim
ary or general election or poli
tical convention. In the lost
campaign, the CIO-PAC suspend
ed funds solicitation after the
primaries. Another organiza
tion, the National Citizens' Ptc,
carried on, however.
