September soybeans, which dropped the 10 cent dally limit Monday, fell sharply in early deal- lngs Tuesday but rallied somewhat later. Corn and oats showed little change most of the time but strengthened with wheat in late trade. ' The late rally m wheat was caused mostlv by strength In the Minneapolis futures market. This caused short covering here. Strength in Minneapolis reflected indications that the harvest is not makincr favorable progress in some areas because of wet weather. Wheat closed 2'i to 3'- higher.

Ore. W AFL Lumber and Sawmill Workers agreed "in principle" to establish ment of a governors' fact-finding committee as the Pacific North west lumber strike went into its 65th day Tuesday. And at Olympia, Washington Gov. Arthur Langlie announced ie was calling a meeting for Thurs day between management and un ion representatives in an effort to organize the committee and get the strikers back on the Job. Establishment of the fact finding committee was recommended last week by Langlie and Gov. Paul Patterson of Oregon. The proposal called for the strikers to return to work while a seven-member committee made up of two rep resentatives each from manage. ment and labor and three persons appointed by the governors in vestigate the issues of the dispute. Kenneth Davis, executive secre tary of the union's Northwest coun cil, said he would demand that the committee "concern itself with the ability of employers to pay a wage Increase." Management, generally has con tended that a wage increase is not warranted at this time and addi tional costs might damage the in dustry. The union maintains this amounts to a "veiled statement oi inability to pay." and the union will demand that the fact finders bring out the figures," Davis said. Management representatives Annual Aquatic School Planned Red Cross water safety officials. here to observe the development of the national Red Cross Aquatic School at Lake of the Woods, ex pressed satisfaction with accom plishments of the early days of the school and announced plans for making it an annual affair at the lake.

' The CIO Woodworkers, who kn walked off the job June 20 to back up demands for a 12 Vj-cent houn. pay increase, rejected the gover nors' proposal last week. Langlia said that in view of the AFL's ac tion, the CIO union would be given every opportunity to reconsider a fact-finding committee. Elsewhere in the strike there were these developments Monday About 1,500 workers went back to work at Oregon plants under varying wage agreements. Largest group was the 750 AFL workeri who returned to the big C. D. John, son operation at Toledo under th pre-strike wage scale pending an industry-wage settlement. Some 600 AFL employes were back at work at the Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. plant at Coos Bay at a 2 '2-cent increase which raised their minimum wage to $1.90 an hour. Weyerhaeuser was paying 5 cents an hour more than most other operators when the strike ' began. The minimum rate varied in the industry but averaged about 51.82 an hour. AFL workers were back on the job at the Cape Arago Lumber Co. also at Coos Bay, with a 5K:cnt hourly Increase. Meanwhile at Hoquiam, Wash., 29 CIO union members and offil cials were ordered to appear In court Wednesday after a mass demonstration outside the Rayo nier Inc.. pulp plant.' Earlier a superior court ruling had limited Ihe union to .four pickets at the plant.
