Labor, Management
Collide Over Bill
Salem - (UPI) - Labor and
management bumped heads
here Tuesday on whether an
anti-strikebreaker law for
Oregon would be advisable or
even legal.
George Brown of the Ore
gon AFL-CIO and othen labor
witnesses said It would keep
undesirable elements out and
improve labor management
relations. Brown said it was
legal and successful in eight
states that have it.
William Lubcrsky of As
sociated Oregon Industries
and other management wit
nesses replied it would weigh
the bargaining scales in favor
of labor and harm currently
good labor-manageincnt rela
tions in Oregon. Lubcrsky
said the proposed Oregon law
was clearly unconstitutional.

Log Export Bill
Approved by Group
Salem -0IPD- A bill to per
mit export of white cedar logs
and Clatsop County hemlock
logs from Oregon was ap
proved Tuesday by the House
Natural Resources committee.
Sponsors Carl Back (D-Poi l
Orford) and William Holm
strom (D-Gcarhart) said these
logs have lacked a market for
processing since a 1001 law
was passed prohibiting export
of raw logs cut from stale or
county lands.
The British Columbia per
mit system of exporting logs
was described to the commit
tee by lumberman Larry S.
Eckardt of Vancouver, B. C.
Under the system, logs must
be offered to at least three lo
cal processors at local prices,
and refused, before an export
permit will be granted.
