Stafc Bids For NASA WASHINGTON (UPI) - An Oregon delegation, lead by Rep. Editli Green. D-Ore., and Ro bert Short, vice president of Portland General Electric Co., Wednesday urged the National Aeronautics and Space Admin istration (NASA) to locate a re search center In tlie Portland area. The delegation lilted some of Oregon's technical and climactic advantages in an effort to have a $57 million electronic research complex in the state. Oregon's group was one of many such delegations bidding for the project which NASA said would eventually employ 2.100 to 2.700 persons. The projected center would occupy 1.100 acres. Short suggested a site in the Tualatin Valley to NASA exam iner George Simpson. Dr. James Jensen, president of Oregon State University, pre sented a description of what he termed the "academic boule vard" which stretches from Se attle to San Diego and through the Willamette Valley. It would offer scientific personnel and laboratories for work related to space, lie said. Anti-Canadian Lumber Marking Requirement Approved By Senate-House Group WASHINGTON l'PH - A House-Senate conference com mittee Wednesday approved a lumber marking requirement that was a key factor in (lie drive to cut back Canada's $280 million a year softwood lumber sales to the United states. The requirement would make it necessary for ail sawed lum ber imported into tlie United States to be marked w ith coun try of origin alter March 31, 1964. It Is a keystone in any attempt to enforce "Buy-American" practices. The requirement had been added to a House-passed bill as an amendment when the bill was approved by the Senate last June. It was included in the compromise bill w o rk e d out Wednesday by a House-Senate conference committee. The com promise now must be approved by both houses before the bill goes to President Johnson fur signature. The State. Commerce and Treasury department had op posed the marking requirement in hearings on the proposal, and former President Dwight D. Ei senhower vetoed a similar measure in I960. Opponents argued it would violate Canadian-U.S. trade agreements and run counter to U.S. efforts to achieve freer trade. Sen. Warren G. Magnuson. D Wash., hailed the conference committee action as "a con structive step toward helping our Pacific Northwest lumber industry." Canada exported about $280 million worth of softwood lum ber to tlie United States last jear, accounting for about IS per cent of U.S. domestic soft wood construction. Lumber in dustry spokesmen have said the Canadian share of the U S. mar ket increased this year. Only one other lumber bill has advanced in Congress so far this session. The Senate last week passed legislation to ex tend an exemption that allowed U.S. lumber to be shipped to Puerto Rico in foreign vessels. Purpose of the continued exemp tion was to enable U.S. lumber to compete with Canadian lum ber in Puerto Rico. Other measures which have been submitted include bills which would restrict imported softwood to 6 per cent of U.S. consumption and require that oniy U.S. lumber be used in construction built with federal funds or with federal government-guaranteed loans. PAGE tA HERALD AND NEWS. Klamath Falls, Oregon Country-of-origin marking would be crucial to any such "buy American" campaigns which the lumber industry has quietly tried to foster.
