Industrial Employes Union Ends
Career, Favors Joining AFL
PORTLAND, May 29 -T
Tho career of the Industrial Em
ployes' Union, Inc., ended yes
terday with a plea by the board
of directors that its 6000 mem
bers join tho AFL Lumber and
Sawmill Workers unions.
Dissolution of the union was
announced by E. N. Wightman,
treasurer, who accused the CIO
International Woodworkers of
America of "maneuvering"
through the national labor rela
tions board for a scries of elec
tions in which ballots provided
only for a choice of the CIO or
no union.
The probability that workers
would accept the CIO rather
than abandon representation
elude numerous educational as
sociations, and he has served as
president of the department of
superintendents of the Oregon
State Teachers association, vice
president of the Inland Empire
Education association, and presi
dent of the Eastern Oregon Edu
cation conference.
Gralapp was selected from
among 60 applicants for the lo
cal position. Of this number, 10
men were invited here by the
school boards for interviews.
The boards of both districts col
laborated in all the interviews
and in the selection of Gralapp.
Boards Agree
Final action was taken by the
high school board Monday eve
ning, and on Wednesday eve
ning the city elementary school
board took the same action.
The movement to unite the
administration of the schools
here has been in an active stage
for more than a year. Many joint
meetings have been held, and
the problem was discussed with
prominent educational experts
of the state.
Under the flan finally adopt
ed, the two districts will retain
their legal identities, due to the
difficult technical problems ot
physical consolidation. The
boards, however, will collabor
ate closely and operate the
schools, from a practical stand
point, as a single system under
the single head after July 1,
1942. Such a plan has been used
successfully in other communi
ties, according to local school
officials.

prompted the dissolution, he
said.
Approximately 1000 1EU mem
bers already have switched to
the AFL, Wightman added.
The IEU was established In
the Willamette valley and west
ern pine regions on April 29.
1937, after federal legislation
outlawing employer employe
combinations forced suspension
of the Loyal Legion of Loggers
and Lumbermen (4-L).
It survived an attack by the
CIO, hi which tho AFL partici
pated, before the NLRB a
hearing which occupied months
and produced huge volumes of
testimony.
The decision to disband was
assailed by Ralph Peoples, sec
retary of the Oregon State In
dustrial Union council, CIO, as
"a last desperate effort on the
part of this company-dominated
organization to stop the success
ful membership drive now being
conducted in the Willamette val
ley by the IWA.
"In our estimation it points
toward collusion between em
ployers, the IEU and the AFL."
Joe Boyd, AFL organizer,
Thursday morning claimed a ma
jority for the AFL at four form
er IEU mills in southern Ore
gon and northern California and
said a charter had been issued
at each place for the establish
ment of local chapters.
Most employes of the Crater
Lake Box and Lumber company
and the Hoseley Logging com
pany, both of Sprague River, the
Butte Falls Logging company
of Butte Falls, and the Hilt Lum
ber company of Hilt, Calif., have
indicated their intention of AFL
affiliation, Boyd asserted.
National Labor Relations
Board hearings on unfair labor
practice charges filed against
both Sprague River firms have
recently been concluded in
Klamath Falls, both accusations
involving the IEU. The Inter
national Woodworkers of Amer
ica (CIO), instigator of each
charge, asserted the firms were
interfering in union activities.
The IEU was the bargaining
agent for both companies at the
time.
Boyd said all four of the new
mill locals will be associated
HUH
with the Klamath district coun
cil of the AFL-Lumber and Saw
mill Workers union.
It was believed that negotia
tions between tho AFL and mill
employers would begin in the
near future.
Roosevelt Keeps
Silent on Plans
For British Aid
WASHINGTON. May 29 Id')
President Roosevelt adopted the
strategy of silence today on fu
ture methods for delivering the
goods to Great Britain.
"You don't telegraph your
moves any more in the world of
today," one service official ex
plained, referring to tho presi
dent's statement that army and
navy technicians were devising
new safeguards. "You can't af
ford to. You'll notice tho other
fellows never do."
However, Chairman Reynolds
(D-N. C.) of the senate military
committee looked for "full con
voys of some description." He
said that was his interpretation
of the president's fireside chat
pledge to sec that needed sup
plies reached England safely.
On the other hand, no less a
personage than Vice President
Wallace was reported to be dis
appointed that his chief had not
been more specific as to how de
livery would bo assured.

CAMP HUNTER LIGGETT,
Call!., May 20 UV) The transfer
of a Pacific northwest army of
35,000 men to this sun-sonkod
reservation from Fort Lewis,
was completed today, ending an
unprecedented western military
movement which officers said
was almost a Important as tho
summer war games starting
Monday.
"We faced real test of motor
and train movement and a com
plicated supply problem, and
came through with minimum dif
ficulty," declared MaJ. Gen.
George A. White, commander of
the 41st division.
Officers pointed out that the
German army made constant at
tempts to improvo its movement
and supply adding, "an army
that can't move Its machines and
that can't supply Its troops can't
fight."
A week ago, tho reservation
was p'oplod with only a fuw
hundred troops. Final units ar
riving today found two full war
time strength divisions and sup
porting troops of the ninth corps
encamped along a U-nille stretch
of valley, 23 miles southwest of
King City.
Ninety-five per cent of the
South American continent lies
nearer to tho Old World than
