Ull had TAKEN OVER.
That' Die way communism

At (he moment of writing UtU,
with Uie nrwa scanty and unre

Ve Guatemalans who don't like
communism may have got their
dander up and aro moviiiK In to
THROW OUT the carpet-bagging

nobody was looking.

BTRONOLY, because It la Urn lu

can be checked. II nobody In the
world In willing u light to keep

Senate Considers Changes
In New Tax Revision Bill
By JOt; HALL
WASHINGTON Sen. George
ID-Gn) said today Democrats
would fight In the Senate to write
new income tax cuts Into a general
tax revision bill that already pro
vides nearly billion dollars In
tax relict for corporations and in
dividuals. Ihe bill wus headed for possi
ble Senate debate next week after
the senate Finance Commlttco yes
terday formally approved the 875
page house-passed mensure that
would overhaul Uie nation's lax
laws for the first time in 70 years.
The Democrats on the commit
tee had talked of trying to include
new Income tax reduction provi
sions, but they apparently made
no move to do so.
: However, George the commit
tee's senior Democrat said in
an Interview Democratic strat
egists have settled on two alter
nate proposals tor. lull Senate con.

j 1. To reduce personal Income
tuxes $2,400,000,000 annually by a

2. To give each taxpayer a 130
annual income tax credit.. It was
estimated this plan would mean a

Walkouts

Spokesmen for labor and man
agement In Klamath Falls would
not make any statement Saturday
concerning prospects for a lum
ber strike In this area.
One official representing local
lumber concern said; !
"We probably won't know any
thing definite nntll Monday.":
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Four thousand CIO Woodworkers
struck the huge Weyerhaeuser and
Long-Bell sawmills and other
plants at Longvtew, Wash., Satur
day in the first mass movement
of that union to Join AFL workers
In a walkout of 135,000 men by
Monday. .
Shortly after that, CIO locals at
Bend, Prlneville and Redmond, In
Central Oregon's pine belt, walked
out, according to James E. Dicey.
CIO-IWA vice president at. Port
land.
The unions want a 12 li-cent pay
boost. - . ,.
The CIO-IWA policy committee
Friday afternoon set Monday as
the strike deadline thus linking
firmly with the AFL Lumber and
Sawmill Workers who earlier had
set the same dateand called on
all Oregon and Washington fir belt
workers to strike "not later than
the first shift Monday' Dicey
said.
FIR STRIKE
CIO pine workers of the Inland
Empire, Eastern Oregon and
Northern California were not
called out but were advised of
the strike in fir and were expected
to act In accordance with their
local situations.
If all should go out. the strike
would affect more than 150.000
workers in Oregon, Washington,
California, Idaho, Montana and
Nevada. If only a handful of the
CIO pine workers should strike,
the total for the region would be
cut to about 135,000. Dicey esti
mated. -
A number of pine operations.
especially In northern California,
already are operating under re
newal of the old contract. The Cen
tral Oregon walkout was the first
reported reaction from locals not
under contract renewal.
A Weyerhaeuser official at Ta-
coma, reporting the firm's Long
view mill picketed, said he expect
ed that all those manned by the
CIO would be struck by Monday.
He said the AFL represents
Weyerhaeuser workers at Snoqual
mie. Wash., Coos Bay, Ore., and'
the plywood plant at Long-view. A
negotiation meeting with the AFL
at Coos Bay was on the Saturday
schedule. . - .
SCATTERED WALKOUTS .
For more than two weeks there
have been walkouts In scattered
areas, some of them In support
of the pay increase demand and
some on local issues. Hundreds
walked out in the Coos Bay area
Friday. . ...
There also have been some
settlements. The Lumbermen's In
dustrial Relations Committee list
ed them Thursday as totaling IT
operations employing 4,300 men.
Included in this total of settle
ments were those In Northern Cali
fornia in which employers took
over health and welfare financing,
a value estimated by union sources
at 7 'A to 8 cents an hour and by
an employer spokesman at Port
land as 4 to 5 cents.
The full 12V4 cents was reported
accepted by Timber Tech. Corp.,
an AFL operation near Lebanon,
Ore., but ' G. W. Skelton, plant
manager, said "a few points" re
mained before contract signing.
In none of the settlements did
there appear to bo a pattern form

comments were available from the
industry or the unions.
