I1 ! ! ! I: i I ft ; i u u IYA Seeks Assistance Of Truman PORTLAND, Ore., April 19 (A') President Truman's aid has been sought by the CIO Interna tional Woodworkers of Ameriea, whose president asserted that Douglas fir and western pine em ployers are trying to "provoke a strike." President James E. Fadling de clared the operators are "insist ing on the elimination of virtual ly all contract provisions nego tiated long before the war." Ask ing Truman to help untangle the "snarled lumber situation," he urged study of a forest program suggested by Ellery Foster, un ion research director. This calls for government aid to operators, enforcement of sustained timber yield, and federal help in wood waste development. Higher Pay Needed Lumber prices are "complete ly out of line." Fadling said, and have been boosted much higher than wage increases to industry workers. Higher pay is needed to recruit sufficient labor, espec ially in "low-wage forest regions of the south central and south eastern states," he asserted. In this area the IWA wants an increase from $1.05 an hour to a SI. 171 minimum. The common labor minimum rose from 90 cents to $1.05 last year. Fadling accused some parts of the industry of deliberately holding back on production. "The industry's Incentive to pro duce is greatly reduced by pro visions of the carry-back-carry forward tax law." he said. Under this law, he explained, operators can collect without producing and at the same time save their trees "for the day when price ceilings will be lifted altogether or further modified."
