Longshoremen Will Observe Picket Lines Portland, Ore., May 12 tll.R) Portland longshoremen affirm ed today they would not cross CIO picket lines if members of the International Woodworkers of America (CIO) strike Monday. Such action by the ILWU would tie up water shipment of lumber on the Columbia river, and probably at Coos Bay, Ore., and in the Pugct Sound area. The IWA said It would strike Monday against 700 northwest operators in five states If 1950 contract demands were not set tled. The longshoremen's Port land locnl. No. 8, said It would give moral and financial sup port to its brother CIO union. Most northwest millworkers belong to the AFL, but they may be forced out of work because they would not get logs from the woods, controlled by CIO union members. DONORS SOUGHT Jacksonville, May 12 Bruce Matheny, business manager of the Jacksonville Teen-age club, has asked that donors who con tributed to the club during soli citing of funds and on opening night of the club, contact him at P.

The lead article describes the operations of the Lausmann Lumber company and its affili ate organizations, Kogap Lum ber industries and Kogap Lunv ber Sales, Inc. The other article concerns the Southern Oregon Sugar Pine corporation, calling its White City operation the largest lumber remanufacturing center in the west. Work As Canter The Lausmann and Kogap firms, according to the article, operate as a complete industrial center that over a period of sev eral years has developed into a unified operation to such extent that it is not possible to tell where one company's functions leave off and another takes over. The firm's equipment, said to be modern throughout, is described in detail in the article to show how equipment can mean more effective lumber production. The Lumberman says that some 800 acres of the old Camp wmte reservation have been con verted in a remanufacturing cen ter in which several organiza tions have set up operations, utilizing the seven miles of rail sidings available there. Companies Listed The firms that go to make White City one of the west's largest remanufacturing areas are Medford Door corporation, making some 800 to 900 flush type doors per day: Mt.

May 12. 1930 Browntown Mine Reopens May 30 Elwood Hussey, owner of the Browntown mine in the Althouse district below Grants Pass, re ported this week that the novel tourist attraction will be opened to the public for its second sea son about May 30. The historic old mining com munities of Browntown and Ti- gertown have been reopened and partially restored so that they now appear much as they were in Gold Rush days. Limited ac commodations are being made available to visitors who will be allowed to seek gold in the same way and in the same places as me 4ers. "Oldlimer" There For the 1950 season, Hussey says he has secured the services of Charlie Gilmore, an 88-year-old "oldtimer" who used to op erate the store and hotel at Browntown. Gilmore will make his years of experience available to visitors who want instruction in the primitive methods of placer mining. Meals, featuring authentic sourdough biscuits, will be served from the Brown town cookhouse at meal times. Hussey said excellent fishing will be available in Althouse creek after June 1, and guides and horses will be furnished for tourists who want to pack into the Siskiyou national forest. The mines are a 15 minute side trip from the Oregon Caves highway and 20 minutes from Cave Junction.

Hollywood, May 12 (U.R) Co-starring w i t h a "nothing," James Stewnrt said today, is the toughest acting job he ever drew. He can't tell when that blank space is upstaging him. The "noth ing," as every body probably Knows by now is an invisible rabbit named "Harvey." You can't see him; we c a n't see him; and neith er can the cameraman. This makes things tough all around at Universal-Internation al studio where "Harvey" is the main conversation piece these days. "It ain't easy," Stewart says. "Take a close-up, for instance. I'm talking to Harvey. But as far as the camera's concerned, I'm talking to myself. "We're having a tough time keeping this movie from looking lopsided." Acting with blank space has its advantages, though. "When I fluff my lines, I tell Director Henry Koster it wae Harvey's fault," Stewart grins. "He interrupted me. When I'm late, I blame it on Harvey. "It's wonderful. Harvey can't talk back." There He Is He never battles for better lines or more close-ups, either, a trait many a temperamental movie queen around these parts is afflicted with at one time or another. "And I don't have to sit around and wait while he gets I his lipstick on or his ears fluffed i up." Stewart added. "I just look up in the air about six inches above my head and ' there he is." I Studio wags are having a wonderful time with Harvey.

(Harvey doesn't seem to like the U-I food.) "You know what the payoff on all this's gonna be, dontcha?" Stewart says. "We're all gonna wind up actually seeing Harvey ourselves. Then they'll have to put us away. "And that's going pretty far to get publicity!"
