Lumber Plant
Destroyed
By Fire
PORTLAND (AP) A fire
.burned through a four-story lum
ber plant here Wednesday night.
Firemen said the building was a
total loss, and damage was esti
mated at more than $160,000.
The flames also ate into an ad
joining cold storage company.
Fire and water loss there was
extensive.
Fire Inspector C. W. Stickney
said determination of the fire's
cause would have to await an
extensive investigation.
The fire broke out about 7:30
p.m. in the frame building that
housed the Western Door & Ply
wood Co. in Portland's Northwest
industrial section.
It took firemen more than two
hours to quell the flames.
: The flames ate through nearly
all of the top two floors of the
. building. Destroyed on those up
per floors were large quantities
of plywood, doors and cabinet
stock.
The flames also swept through
the bottom two floors, but they
remained standing. The bottom
floor had been filled wilh manu
facturing equipment.
. D. R. Morris, the secretary of
the lumber firm, said he esti-
mated the damage at more than
$160,000.
No estimate was available im
mediately on damage suffered by
the adjoining Portland Ice & Cold
Storage Co. J. W. Savinar, owner
of the firm, said the building and
equipment were valued at more
than $500,000 not counting con
tents of freezing units.
Nineteen pieces of equipment
and scores of firemen fought the
blaze. '

NOT WORTH IT
TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (UPI)
The burglary trade is just too
costly these days, according to
Richard Weisclberg, 26.
Weiselberg, accused of pulling a
$100 tavern holdup, said he spent
$50 of the money on taxi and bus
fares to get out of town.
3 Scheduled
To Appear
Before Jury
OREGON CITY (AP) Three
men held in connection with the
dynamiting of six trucks in Ore
gon City that hauled for Port
land's struck newspapers are
scheduled to come before the
Clackamas County Grand Jury
today.
The three are Levi S. McDon
aid, 52, and two twin Snyder
brothers, Edward and Charles,
23.
Dist. Atty. Winston Bradshaw
said felony charges of injury to
property by explosives will be
presented against all three and a
third degree arson charge also
will be presented against McDonald.
The Snyder brothers admitted
the dynamiting of the trucks at
the Wymore Transfer Co. Jan. 31
and said McDonald paid them to
do it, sheriff's deputies said. Mc
Donald insists he is innocent.
McDonald is a member df the
Stereotypers Union, which struck
the Oregonian and Oregon Jour
nal Nov. 10. Other union members
observed the picket lines, but the
newspapers have published joint
ly at the Oregonian plant, using
non-union and supervisory personnel.
William Snyder, 19, brother of
the other two, and Gerald Cou-
zens, 20, were reported by Sheriff
Francis Lambert . of Multnomah
County as admitting they set off
blasts the same night that des
troyed four trucks in Portland.
The three Snyders, Couzens and
McDonald were indicted Saturday
by a Multnomah County Grand
Jury on charges of injury to prop
erty by explosives
