Tariff Commission Broadens ation Expansion To Include Cedar From Canada By BRUCE AGNEW United Praii International WashinKlon UPH- The U.S. Tariff Commission has broad ened its investigation of Ca nadian lumber imports to the United Slates to Include all species of softwoods, it was announced Thursday. Main effect of the change is that the commission will look into the market impact of Ca nadian cedar as well as the other major varieties. Cedar competes primarily with red woods from California. The Pacific Northwest lum ber industry has asked the commission for relief - which could come in the form of recommended quotas or tariff boosts - against increased im ports of Canadian lumber. Excessiva Share The U.S. industry says Canadian softwood lumber has captured an excessive share of the U.S. market and is threatening U.S. lumber mills with disaster. Softwood lumber brings about $250 million a year into Canada, which currently is trying to pull out of a balance of payment crisis. U.S. - Canadian negotiations on the lumber problem open ed this week in Ottawa. The talks recessed after two days but will resume In the near future, according to a joint statement. NLMA Encouraged The National Lumber Man ufacturers Association said Thursday in Washington it was encouraged by reports it had received on the negotia tions. It said a State Depart ment official reported that the U.S. negotiators presented in full the facts, Issues and prob Jems confronting the U.S. In dustry. The Tariff Commission agreed earlier to investigate me ciiects or Canadian im ports on a limited range of softwood lumber. Industry representatives asked the com mission this week to broaden the Inquiry to include Ihe whole industry. Hearing Scheduled The commission has sched uled a hearing on the Issue Ocl. 2. The decision before Ihe commission Is whether be cause of previous trade con cessions imports of lumber have Increased to the point where they threaten "serious injury" to the U S. lumber in dustry. If the commission finds that "serious injury" Is threat ened, it can recommend im position of quotas or higher tariffs. Order Suspended To Remove Fish Bill From Ballot Salem -ilTIt- A controversial measure to restrict Oregon commercial catches of steel head was ordered off the No vember election ballot Thurs day by Circuit Judge George Jones.

AFL-CIO Salem -IUPH- The slate labor convention gave its blessing to a slate of candidates, mostly Democrats, Thursday, but withheld any recommendation for governor, Republican Gov. Mark Hat field, the 1 4-4 choice of the state AFL-CIO's executive board, termed the convention a "moral victory" and thank ed his supporters. The convention look its hands off position after one delegate said Hatfield, though a friend of labor, would be heading the GOP ticket con taining many labor - opposed candidates. Bids for Important House Seats To Spark State Election By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribuna Washington Corraspondtni With 10 weeks to go before Election Day, there are indi cations that the most interest ing, and possibly most im portant, political campaigns in Oregon this fall will be fought for three of the state's four seats in the House of Rep resentatives. Several weeks of sniffing Ihe political winds in Oregon's grass roots indicate that the two glamor catnpRigns will be colorfully fought but are like ly to he lopsided affairs with Sen. Wayne Morse the favor ite for reelection over GOP challenger Sig Unander and Gov. Mark Hatfield well out in front for reelection against Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thorn ton. Morse, however, is vulner able - and some top Demo crats are the first to concede this, based on early private polls. But most Republicans seem lo have little confidence that Unander has what it takes to trap the tiger. Victory Expected Hatfield appears capable of trouncing Thornton handily, although most observers seem lo think his margin won't be as large as he would like to make a national splash as a big vole getter, for whatever value that might have in fu ture Republican national con ventions. The races for Ihe House, us ually overshadowed by con tests for the so-called higher offices, may offer some sur prises -- at least outside the Third District (Multnomah county), where Congresswom an Edith Green probably has the safept thing in Oregon politics. But in the First District, some Republicans are trou bled by the apparent impact of the advance campaigning of Rep. Waller Norblad's Democratic challenger, Blaine Whipple. And in the second district, some Democrats are Impressed with the initial ef forts against Rep. Al Ullman that Republican Hob Chandler is registering. In addition to these two contests, the Fourth District is up for grabs because incum bent Rep. Kdwin R. Dumo gave it up in a vain shot at the Senate; and Democratic Hnuse Speaker Roherl Dun can of Medford is running hard for it against Republican state legislatnr Carl Fisher of Kugene. Indicative of Dilsmir.i To a correspondent freh from the sidelines of the Washington political wars, where President Kennedy is having his worst domestic dif ficulties in the House, it seems evident that these three Oregon contests are indicative of the national dilemma which challenges the voters this No- RECRUIT RECORD SET Washington -HTIi The De fense l)epnrtnicnt said Thurs day the Navy enlisted a record number of recruits during the fiscal year that ended July .

Convention Endorses List of Candidates Hatfield's Democratic op ponent, Atty. Gen. Robert Thornton, thanked the con vention for refusing to take sides. Choices Made Supported for U. S. Senator was Wayne Morse. Democrats R. Blaine Whipple in the first district, Al Ullman in the sec ond, Edith Green in the third and Robert B. Duncan in the fourth were endorsed for Con gress. Norman O. Nilsen, Demo crat, was endorsed for com missioner of labor. The convention passed res olutions opposing ballot meas- vember. It is this: Should we go moderately lo the left or right? The 1960 presidential and congressional elections left this question, for all practical purposes, in doubt. Kennedy's slim margin over Nixon indi cated a desire lo move slight ly to the left, but the Presi dent has lacked sufficient backing in the House to im plement more than a token legislative program thus far. If Norblad, who is moder ately to the right, and Ullmr.:i, who is moderately lo the left, are indeed in trouble it is most likely because of a na tional indecisiveness. Both of these incumbents have been extremely careful not to arouse strong passions and to keep their fences mended at home. But that may not be enough if the winds of public sentiment by Election Day have suddenly taken a deci sive shift. Might Loan Coatlail The Morse forces are won dering whether Kennedy will come into Oregon lo "help Wayne" this fall. As of now, it looks like Morse won't neei the President's coatlail. al though undoubtedly the Presi dent would lend it - despite the epithets Morse concocted during the recent .satellite fili buster - if the senator's cam paign foundered. i The three House contests. : v K It ui . . - v " ' ; i ' ' ' I 1 I r : ' ' J'"' ' -.

Kennedy is per sonally popular with a heavy majority of the people, but not all of these well-wishers are sure they want to follow his lead on the issues of the day, such as medicare and aid to education. Oregon's con gressional campaigns this fall may represent the nation in microcosm as il tries to make up its mind.
