Franco, Aug. 11 By aa overwhelming show sf hands, the council sf Europe's as sembly today rejected Ireland! at tempt to eaU ap the Irish partition problem for debate. Ireland had sought to hare the newlT-erestrd assembly take a hand In its lonz-eundini demands for anion sf Northern Ireland with the M-connty republic to the south. Strong opposition to the con troversial proposal came from most British delegates to the 101-mem-ber assembly. Sines 1921 the six counties of Northern Ireland hare been part of the United Kingdom, alone with England, Scotland and Wales. Technical Side (ejection sf the Irish Md came on a point of piotcdiiro whether proposals backed by less than M deputies could be considered far the assembly's agenda. The lasers My endorsed Its special sgends committee's recommendation to throw out snrh minority proposals. Ireland's four deputies had ask ed the assembly to discuss "best methods for eliminating causes ot disputes between member states." Previously Irish Foreign Minister Bean Mae Bride mads it clear the proposal was aimed at getting as sembly of Ireland's dispute with Britain over partition. Ths assembly adopted aa eight point agenda and sent It to the council's commutes sf foreign min isters, which most givs its approval before debate can begin. One' notable omission from the agenda was the question of Ger many. Associates of Britain'! Win ston Churchill said he intends to bring this up in the assembly next week, alter the German parlia mentary elections Sunday. Sunday Mail Service End Gets Favor LAKEVTEW.

IS (JV-Lumbermen were advised Friday to con vert the falling demand for lumber Into an advantage by employing more efficient methods. 8. V. Fullaway Jr.. secretary-man-ager of the Western Pine association. declared that the end of the "sell er's market" presents a challenge to develop more lumber uses, better forest management, and more cus tomer service. The prolonged seller's market brought abuses and careless practices,- Fullaway told the Western Pine association convention. "Prices soared, product, quality and service sianaaras aeienoratea, and oper ating efficiency and economy In management were neglected." W. K. Grlffee. assistant to Full away. told ths lumbermen that the demand for lumber hasn't dropped dangerously low. The amount of new housing start ed during the first half of this year was only S per cent below IMS. he reported. Demand far western pine products, he said, probably will be over g.000.000.000 board feet this year 10 per cent below last year, but still 30 per cent above prewar de mand.
