Newspaper Page Textecovery Work Making Progress on Storm-Wracke Truthfulness of Canadian Lumber Witnesses Questioned Washington - (UPD - U. S. lumbermen, questioning the truthfulness of Canadian wit nesses, called on the Tariff Commission today to restrict imports of Canadian softwood lumber which they said may have caused record unemploy ment. The National Lumber Man ufacturers Association and the Western Forest Industries Association filed briefs sup porting the arguments they had presented in a two-week hearing last month. The 40-page NLMA brief said witnesses supporting the Canadian case at the com mission hearings had quoted unemployment reports out of context, testified that Cana dian lumber was higher-priced when "they must have known better," and contradicted themselves on whether Cana dian timber was sold by com petitive bidding. The NLMA said a Canadian witness had quoted from an Oregon unemployment report without making clear that the report dealt with total unem ployment in the state, not just in the lumber industry. "In view of the meticulous Regional Edition Medford Page 2A Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY.

The NLMA also said ,in employment was high even if figures submitted by the Ca nadians were the only evi dence. It said Canadian wit nesses hud referred to a re port that 25,800 lumbermen were drawing unemployment compensation in July, 1902. Both the NLMA and the WFIA termed irrelevant the contention that the ills of the U. S. softwood industry stem med from U. S. laws. They said the purpose of tariff re strictions was to balance the advantage that foreign produ cers might gain from U. S. laws, labor standards and oth er domestic factors. The WFIA said the "Cana dian talk of free trade is a mockery" because of uch policies as empire preferences that give Canada access to commonwealth trade and Ca nadian tariffs on U. S. soft wood lumber. It also said Canada "deliberately" de valued its dollar last May "in order to suppress the importa tion into Canada of the goods of other nations." "Nobility has not been a characteristic of Canadian trade policy . , ." it said. "Wheat to Red China was profitable, whatever the con sequences for the Western world. Machinery to Cuba was profitable, whatever the consequences."

IN THE MEDFORD SHOPPING CENTER Phone 772-7733 .mor mli to a 0nnKmp First Planeload Of Evacuees Reach California Tokyo -(UPD- Recovery work and evacuation were progress ing rapidly on the island of Guam, where typhoon Karen's 200 mile an hour winds Sun day destroyed or damaged an estimated BO per cent of all buildings, Navy officials said today. The typhoon, its force now down to 150 m.p.h., moved across the Pacific in the di rection of Okinawa, another U. S. military bastion, as the first planeload of evacuated families arrived at Travis Air Force Base in California. The 31 men, 14 wives, and 22 children will be followed by about 450 others, but Red Cross officials here emphasiz ed there would be no mass evacuation from the island. Only those scheduled to go home soon are being flown back. Navy Maintains Contact The Navy maintained con tact with Guam through its own channels after normal communications were knock ed out by the typhoon, which caused an estimated $100 mil lion in damage and killed sev en persons. "All reports indicate that significant advances are being made everywhere toward re covery," the Navy said. "Progress is being made to restore power, water, and communication service to mil itary and civilian areas." The Navy was joined by the other armed services in a massive relief effort by the island's 70,000 inhabitants. It involved Air Force planes, Navy ships, and Army soldiers doing KP duty. Double Duty Officials at Travis, 6,000 miles from Guam, said planes assigned to evacuation flights were doing double duty. On their trips to Guam, they carry consignments of the 500,000 pounds of emergency equipment ordered to the is land by the Defense depart ment. On the way back, they bring service families. All the first arrivals told of the destruction and damage caused by the storm. One young mother said that after the roof on her house was rip ped off, "It was nip and tuck for a while as to whether the storm would blow my two small children and me right out of the house and into the ocean." Travis set up a processing station for the evacuated fam ilies in a service club, sorting out their pay, travel orders, and other paperwork. Com mercial travel was being ar ranged to get each family to its home town. Stocks Meet Heavy Resistance New York -(UPD- Stocks ran into heavy resistance after moving ahead moderately to day.
