WASHINGTON, June 5-(R
President Roosevelt's admoni-
ton to labor and industry to
abide by the recommendations of
the Defense Mediation Board
was openly challenged today by
the leader of the Pacific north
west lumber strike.
With a showdown seemingly
inevitable, the full membership
of the mediation board gathered
for a closed forenoon session to
consider what course of action
to pursue.
o. M. Orion, president of the
CLOS International Woodwork
ers of America, quit conferences
with board officials late yester-
day, accusing the agency of
Labor busting strike break
ing $3.50. bulldozing.
He denounced the boards ap-
peal for acceptance of its rec
concentrations, and declared that
the strike of the $4,000 lumber
workers would continue until
they "obtain a decent living"
This is real national defense,
Mr.. Dykstra, phony propaganda
and bull doing to the contrary
Notwithstanding.
"In conformity with honest
union practice, we will follow in
this strike the course adopted by
John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers." Orion said in a
statement as he departed for the
Pacific coast last night after two
days of meetings with board Of
ficials.
Chairman c. A. Dyksra of the
board promptly replied in a brief
statement that acceptance of the
recommen Iations had been
urged by Philip Murray, presi-
dent of the CLIO, who also is a
member of the board.
The employers have accepted
the recommendations but the
union has rejected them.
The recommendations were:
/. That work be resumed
while a fact-finding commission
made a complete report on lum-
Der industry col. ditions in the
Puget sound area.
2. That the union be granted
Immediately the tn cents an
hour wage increase it sought.
3. That any other subsequent
adjustments on wages or paid va
cations be retroactive to the date
work resumed.
The union demands also in

The strike, described by the
mediation board as "a serious
threat to he nations preparation
for defense" has been in prog
ress since May 8. The contrO-
versy between strike leaders and
the board, however, did not in
tensify until last week when the

and badly arranged objects were
dark and consequently stood out
with undue clarity against the

From their study of the new
art OF paint styling, the young
couple knew that wonders could
be worked with color. While
they were consulting color cards.

that extended down to point

This new window was TO be

The window frame itself, as well

DIVIDING DEFENSE CONTRACTS

When the United States began its vast
armament program, last summer, it was
necessary for the Government to go to the
large corporations in order to take ad-
vantage of existing industrial plants. Speed
in the delivery of products was the prime
consideration
There has been considerable criticism
of this policy although, in our opinion, the
emergency justified the procedure. Never
theless, the concentration and centraliza-
ton of industry was greatly increased by
the placing of orders with giant corpora
TONS
1t has been noted that seventy-one per
cent of the first $4,000, 100000 of defense
contracts were placed in twenty cities and
their Immediately adjacent areas and sixty
eight per cent of the first $4,000, 000,0
of defense contracts were awarded to thirty
corporations
The situation has now changed, ac-
cording to Donald M. Nelson, Director of
Purchases, OPM, who says that while speed
is still imperative, greater consideration can
now be given to decentralization in order to
better adjust the economic future of the
nation
