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.

care he used in correcting
paragraphing elsewhere in the
transcript . . . and the fact that
he proposed a change in the
very next line under the
quote . . . one wonders why
this miieading quote was al
lowed to stand," the brief said.
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."

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
