Uneasy Calm Reigns in Lumber Workers' Dispute at Feather Falls Sawmill Operation
Oroville, Calif. (U.R) An
uneasy calm reigned here today
In the labor dispute at the Feath
er River Pine Mills at nearby
Feather Falls as armed guards
carried workmen to their jobs.
No open flareups of violence
have occurred since last week
when the home of a Sacramento
trucking executive was dyna
mited in what he termed a re
prisal for sending a truck
through the picket lines at the
mill. A truck driver was beaten
the same day, while several days
earlier a railroad trestle owned
by the company was burned.
Non-Union Workmen
The Lumber and Sawmill
Workers Union failed to come to
terms with the mill management
in June 1954, but the mill,
owned by Georgia-Pacific, con
, tinued to operate with non-union
workmen. Relations between
workmen and union personnel
had been strained for the period
lince negotiations ended.
The picket Jine around the
mill had been reduced from 12
to four today and a sound truck
which had hurled taunts at
workers was removed from the
icene. But men on both sides
continued to carry weapons.
Shotgun Loaned
When William W. Gamble,
plant superintendent, was asked
if he was encouraging workers
to carry guns, he replied:
"Well, one of the men asked
me last night if he could borrow
my automatic shotgun and I gave
it to him."
Undersheriff Roy E. Parker,
supervising the squad of depu
ties at the mill, said he had not
been searching the men for
weapons.
"Everybody in this mountain
country owns a gun, and if they
don't keep a shell in the cham
ber we can't stop them from
carrying them."
Luther Sizemore, internation
al representative for the Broth
erhood of Carpenters and Join
ers, parent union of the striking
sawmill workers, has pledged
the union to a policy of non-violence,
unless provoked.
Asks 'Advertising Pickets'
Sizemore asked that he be
permitted to send "advertising
pickets" to the Georgia-Pacific
plants "to advertise there is a
strike here."
"If they (union workers) want
to stop at the picket lines, they
may do so. We hope they do," he
said.
Sizemore said he expected a
reply this week from Maurice A.
Hitchinson of the Indianapolis.
Ind., international president of
the Brotherhood of Carpenters,
parent organization of the saw
mill workers union.
Sizemore was sent here to
bring the two-year strike to a
head. Georgia-Pacific Vice Pres
ident R. E. Floweree claimed
there was "no strike at Feather
Falls. The employees of the mill
rejected the union in 1954 and
prefer no union," he said.
British Columnist Scorns Police
Protection for Marilyn Monroe
London (U.R) A British
columnist expressed indignation
today that a platoon of British
police was detailed to London
Airport Sunday so that Marilyn
Monroe could "enjoy a quiet
seeking session" with her hus
band. The actress' husband, play
wright Arthur Miller, took off
for the United States 'after a
hectic session in which he twice
climbed into the wrong airplane.
This followed his private fare-
Plane Hits Homes
Leaving Four Dead
f Sanford, Fla. U.R) Four
persons, including a 3-year-old
girl, were killed Monday when
Navy attack bomber trying to
make a crash landing smashed
Into two houses and exploded.
Three of the victims were the
crewmen of the twin-engine
"Savage" bomber. The other
was Marilyn Sue Lowe, who was
watching from her front porch
when the plane roared in trail
ing smoke.
The pilot apparently tried to
turn and avoid the houses, but
hit a tree and veered into them.
One house was destroyed and
the other was badly burned by
gasoline spewed over a wide
rea.
The girl's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Lloyd Lowe, and their other
child, 4-year-old David, suffered
econd-degree burns and severe
hock. They were found on the
lawn of their burning residence,
pparently blown there by the
force of the blast.
The Navy dead were identi
fied as Lt. Comdr. O. D. Hall,
84, survived by his parents in
Kansas City, Mo., and his wife
in Sanford: Lt. (jg) G. M. O
Hara, 28, New York city, sur

Mrs. Martin A. O'Hara, Sommer

in Reynoldsville, Pa., and his
wife and three children in Sanford.

well with Marilyn, guarded by
a bevy of cops who thoughtfully
turned their backs toward the
honeymooning couple.
"I wonder if we'll get a re
peat of Sunday night's fantastic
nonsense when Arthur Miller
comes back from America," col
umnist Simon Ward said in the
Daily Sketch today.
"Cops on motorbikes, cops in
jeeps. Cops in a big-booted ring
around the Monroe limousine.
All so that Arthur's ever-loving
Marilyn could enjoy a quiet
necking session in the back of
the car safe from the eyes of
vulgar peasants," he wrote.
"Eight or 18, they might just
as well have been doing their
proper job of keeping law and
order at the airport, because the
peasants barely outnumbered
the police." i
Western Railroads
Eye Freight Rate Hike
Chicago U.R) Plans to seek
a freight rate increase have been
discussed by traffic executives
of western railroads forming the
Western Traffic association.
A spokesman said returns
from freight operations during
the first half of 1956 were "very
disappointing." He added that
net operating income of Class I
carriers in the western district
was $186,736,305, down from
the $202,582,626 in the same pe
riod of 1955.
The spokesman said the com
parison was despite a "slightly
higher level of operating reve
nues." The traffic executives, the
spokesman said, decided to seek
an increase in rates necessary
to maintain a "healthy financial
condition" on the lines involved.
Sentence Upheld
For Bomber of Plane
Manila U.R) The Philippine
Supreme court upheld today the
death sentence of a man who
planted a time bomb in an air
liner to kill the husband of the
woman he loved. Thirteen per
sons died in the crash.
A court sentenced Crispin
Verzo and two accomplices to
die for destruction of property
and multiple murder, but the
Supreme court reduced the sen
tences of the two accomplices
to 17 years on the ground that
they did not know their acts
would bring death.
Verzo was accused of blowing
up the plane in May, 1949, be
cause he was in love with Mrs.
Fructuosa Suzara and her hus
band was aboard the aircraft.
