4 Coast Building Facing full Stop; Klamathite Tells Touring Newsmen Edltor'a Not! ThU la tha itory filed ky Waltar Warran, AMoclatad Piw re porter. aftr he and. other newimen Hulled Klamath Fall! and Medford on i trip arranged by NAM.) By WALTER WARREN MEDFORD. Ore.. March 5 (JP) William Henry "Heinie" Fluhrer Is a bewildered veteran. Back in civilian clothes a couple of months after four years With the air transport command, he has already been jolted out of his confident planning tor ex- Bansion of his chain of southern regon and northern California bakeries. . "I can't figure it out," Fluhrer told a half-dozen newsmen who are touring Oregon industries under the sponsorship of the Na tional Association of Manufac turers. Whafi tht Us "I went to war because I felt I owed my country something," the square-cut "Heinie" said in an informal interview in a smoke-filled hotel room. Then, skipping any ideas he might have on what the country owed veter ans, he explained: "I am offered a bakery in Reno, at a bargain. It would fit my system. I could make money there. But what's the use? The government would take so much of it by taxes I wouldn't have enough left to pay me for my trouble. My bakeries are doing all right. If I earn any more money, I don't get much out of it. If I lose" . He didn't finish. Pushing back his shock of hair, "Heinie" mut tered: "I can't figure out wheth er the government wants busi ness to expand. If it does, why : does it fix the taxes so I can't make anything out of expan sion? Sometime I think it might be smart just to liquidate." He was one of several Oregon businessmen who have com plained to the touring reporters about government policies. In Klamath Falls yesterday, George P. Davis, manager of a whole sale hardware firm, had a differ ent grievance. He blamed Uncle Sam for "encouraging strikes." Planning Hit "Government 'planners,'" Da vii declared at a chamber of commerce luncheon, "are about to reap the whirlwind they have sown. In 30 days you will not even be able to build an out house. There will not be a bui'ding completed on the Pacif- co.ist in the next 90 days. Not B to'ding started now will be ompl-'ted by August, when the steel that has been tied up by strike begins to hit the market. The planners, by bad planning or no planning at all, have brought on the strikes that stopped the steel mills. "The planners," he told the group, "encouraged working men to think that anything they could do against capital was so much of a sain for labor. It is time that we offset that sort of thinking, and time to begin edu cating workers that everything that hurts the business that hires them hurts them. In the next 60 days, industry so far as it de pends on steel will grind to a stop. Then is the time for us to say we saw it coming, and do something about it." Macartney told the group that America can produce enough lumber to build 1,300.000 houses a year, but that regulations are slowing production of many small plants. "Lumber like everything else might go sky high" if price ceil ings were dropped, he said, "but if we remove the OPA we will get back into condition sooner. We are operating on schedule here, but there are lots of small mills that can't operate at the prices they are getting." He thumbed down" the idea of sub sidies, however, saying "they penalize efficiency." Newsmen looked over the sus tained growth plan which as sures a constant yield of timber. One section of ponderosa pine, Macartney said, grew as much in the last 12 years thanks to scientific control as it had dur ing the preceding 75. . Iran Chief Asks Red Troops Move LONDON, March 5 (JP) An Iranian embassy spokesman said tonight Premier Ahmed Oavem es baitaneh already had protest ed lormany in Moscow the Sov. iet Union's decision to keep red army troops in Iran.

Premier Qavam is expected to return to Tehran tomorrow or Thursday from Moscow, the env bassv snokesman said. The spokesman said there was no confirmation of a report car ried in the London Evening news mat Kussia had made six demands on Qavam, including one mat nis country "invite" red army troops to remain in Iran.
