In ten tough tests at Riverside, California, against com parably equipped Fords and Chevrolets, Plymouth won tight! Plymouth asked the independent U. S.

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Waihington Bureau Washington (Special) - When the last witness had finished telling his part of the c o m p licated story of North west lumber's cur rent malaise, Sen. Warren G. Magnuson stood alone at the half-moon shaped Senate C om m e r c e nitk Commit- tee bench early this week and announced that the time of talking was over, the time for action was at hand. As the audience of lobbyists and lumbermen filed out of the room in the new Senate office building, Magnuson said to sever 1 of them: "I think we're getting some where with the Forest Ser vice." No one challenged his optimism. For several hours he and lumber- belt colleagues -Sens. Wayne Morse of Ore gon, Bob Bartleit of Alaska, Thomas Kuchel and Clair En gle of California, Frank Church and Henry Dwor shak of Idaho - had peppered Forest Service Chief Edward P. Cliff with questions about the minutia of timber sale management. While the chief stood his ground, it was ob vious that he got the message from capitol hill that an ex traordinary effort was ex pected - and if complaints from the in ustry continued he would be in serious trouble. Jovial Greeting Rolling out into the corri dor, the burly Washington senator encountered a very correct, impeccably garbed supplicant from the New Frontier wl o awaited some word from this powerful sen ator. "Hiya, Herbie," said Mag nuson with disarming Jovial ity. "We're going to have you up here tomorrow for a little hearing. It won't amount to much. Nothing to worry aoout. "Herbie" turned out to be a newly appointed assistant secretary of commerce, Her bert Klotz, whose nomination was awaiting action in Mag nuson s committee. "Now Herbie," added Mag nuson. "I'm going -to get the western senators together in a couple days, and we'll be talking to you about lumber. But you tell Foley we don'l want to fool around with this task force." Talked Out Thoughts As Klotz nodded a silent "yessir" and Magnuson van ished into an elevptor with a coterie of lumbermen, one voice was hearu to say: "That's the way you get things done around here, not by speechmaking." Over a loggers lunch, "Maggie" talked out his thoughts. Compared to Wayne Morse, who uses the stick technique of beating the ad ministration about the head and shoulders to induce ac tion, "Maggie ' uses the carrot technique and a coaxing demeanor. It was Morse who had cli maxed a stump speech dur ing the hearings by roaring at a slate department witness that he wasn't going to stand by and let the administration liquidate the lumber industry of Oregon. It was Magnuson who later said of the same state department official. He's all right. 'le's going to help us all he can." Several hours later Cliff reported to Magnuson plans to create a trouble-shooting operation composed of vet eran foresters who would drop everything to untangle problems faced by timber op erators as they arose. He would also get 7 or 8 outside foresters to double-check the soundness of his timber man agement plans and calcula tions of allowable cuts. Magnuson recognizes that incomplete third heat t 433& ttf. -t i some of the mills which have closed in the pas', year or more had no chance of sur vival in the first place, that they were started against sound advice to the contrary. "You can go into the Rain ier Club on any day and some one is peddling a sawmill," he says. Not Ready But he is not ready to let Canada's thrust Into the American market from New York to Los Angeles become a steadily rising line on the import charts while North- j west lumber production heads into a steady decline. He is opposed to tinkering with the Jones Act to solve the green lumber hauling j problem, but is investigating the prospect of using ocean I tugs to haul trains of barges ! more cheaply than Liberty j ships can do it and to match the Canadians' use of foreign ! ships. He has hopes of getting the administration to impose j a temporary quota on Can-1 adian imports, if trade talks with the new Canadian gov ernment don't prove bene ficial. He is pushing for more access road funds, and he thinks the Forest Service should cut its timber prices because timber receipts mat ter little compared to the sta bility of the lumber industry, i But Magnusons first aim is to sidetrack the administra tion's task force study and speed up the decision-making machinery upon which all action depends.

BLM Timber Sale Changes Announced Portland -IUPI- The Inter ior Department Thursday an nounced changes in regula tions governing timber sales on Bureau of Land Manage ment lands. The changes are designed to aid the depressed Pacific Northwest lumber industry. John A. Carver Jr., assist ance secretary of the depart ment, said working capital requirements will be eased by allowing timber purchas ers to post a payment bond to be used in the place of cash until the timber is removed. Carver said the bond then would be converted to cash. The change also allowed for reduction of the performance bond under partial contract completion, he said. Minimum installment pay ment contracts are to be re duced from $2,000 to S500, permitting timber contracts of S500 or over to be paid for m installments.
