Portland - 0IPD - The Big Six bargaining association and the Timber Operators council appeared united against two striking Pacific Northwest lumber unions Sat urday. They took their stand after representatives of the Inter na 1 1 o n a 1 Woodworkers of America and the Lumber and Sawmill Workers unions and the Simpson Timber company announced agreement of a three-year contract here Fri day. The pact, which must be ratified by union members at Simpson plants, calls for a wage increase amounting to 33 cents per hour during a three-year period. A spokesman for the Big Six said we consider it ex tremely unfortunate that Simpson Timber company has made a settlement which we consider uneconomic. No Change Seen "The six-company associa tion has no interest in a set tlement with the union at this figure. There has been no change in our resolve. The association ' was not formed with an eye to collapsing at the first evidence of an agree ment which we cannot consid er economically justifiable." A spokesman for the Tim ber Operators council said "the terms and projected cost of the tentative agreement reached between Simpson Timber company and the IWA and LSW unions' repre sentatives does not represent the general thinking of other employers throughout the in dustry. "It is regrettable that Simp son Timber company appar ently felt motivated for rea sons best known to the com pany to reach such an agree ment. We are completely con fident, however, that the set tlement is and will be con sidered economically unsound to this general industry. "It cannot be construed to be the basis of a pattern in other negotiations current 'y in progress. The lumber strike has put 25,000 men out of work in Oregon, Washington, Montana and California. Major companies affected are the members of the Big Six Weyerhaeuser, Crown Zellerbach, U.S. Plywood, In ternational Paper, St. Regis and Rayonier and the Georgia-Pacific corp. Georgia-Pacific would not issue a formal statement after the Simpson announcement. However, a spokesman did say that the settlement would have no affect on the CP ne gotiations with the two unions. The Big Six and CP have no meetings scneauiea wun the unions. The Timber Operators coun cil represents 196 lumber and wood products plants in Ore gon, Washington, California and Alaska. The strike began June 5 when the unions put up picket lines at U. S. Plywood and St. Regis plants. Other Big Six members closed down in a retaliatory lockout. The unions claim a mem- i bership of 70,000 on the Pa-j cific Coast. The membership is about equally divided. ' Details of the Simpson con tract were not disclosed but unofficial sources said the of fer of hourly wage Increases provided for 10 cents retroac tive to June 1, five cents un til Dec. 1, 7l2 cents until next June 1 and 7'4 cents until June 1, 1965.
