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. .
