OBJECTION MADE 10 LOG EXPORTS
 OF JUNEAU MILL
Federal Mediator Is Due Here This Week in Ju-
 neau Spruce Dispute

James W. Fading International President of the International Woodworkers of America, has pro- tested to the U. s. Forest Service over the possible export of logs to the U. S. on the Juneau Spruce Corporation
 Fadlng's letter was disclosed by Virgil Burtz, Assistant IVA Re- search Director from Portland, Ore gon. He said that the union had heard that the company was seek ing permission to export it's logs because of the tie-up of the Ju- neau sawmill.
 Said Fading: If the company is seeking merely a temporary permit to ship it's legs while the work stop page is on, we would consider such action as a strike breaking move designed to give the employer an unfair advantage in the labor dis pute'
 Fading also argued that Fl the company is seeking permission as continuing policy to ship logs to the States rather than manufaetur- ing them in Alaska, we are opposed to that. too. We are strongly in ta- vor of the government nolicy which requires the manufacture of logs in the local marketing area in which they are produced. That is the way to build up and maintain woodwork ing communities It will also help to tuild up and develop Alaska. We are very much in favor of that be- cause we know that region, which merely produces raw materials and has little or no manufacturing, has very little real prosperity and very little opportunity for the develop ment of good, stable communities" ."
 Fading also sent a telegram to Ernest Gruening in Washington, D c. containing similar statements.
 Forest Service Replies
 Assistant Regional Forester Charles G. Burdick replied to Fad ling's letter stating that the Forest Service has not yet received appli- caionS for export from Juneau Spruce or any other logging opera tor. He said that his office could not report on such action until an application is made.
 The Forest Service is primarily interested in ,.,a solvency of the gyppo loggers who had set up their operations with the expectation of a log procurement program of 65,- COG 0O0 board feet by Juneau Spruce in l94S. The company would have produced only about 10000 1000 board feet, leaving a balance of 45,000,000 feet to be furnished by the gyppo operators, said BurdicA.
 He declared that each case will he treated individually and con- sidered on its own merits, He could not make any commitments on possible action. Burdick said: Our interest is in the uilization of the timber and the prevention of waste.
 Mediator Is Due
 Burtz also revealed today that Commissioner Del GarSt, of the Federal Mediation and Cancellation service in Portland, Oregon, is due here tomorrow CT Friday in a Government attempt to enter the dispute which has tied up the local sawmill since April 10.
 Burtz is here as the personal representative cf Fading and has full authority ,o make any nec- essary decisions.
 During his visit hes.. ne has met many old acquainoances, in cluding E. L. Keithahn, Curator of the Territorial Museum. The two attended school at Tenino, Wash.

pitching duel between Keeler
and Art Sobiniak, who looked
exceptionally good for the Air

by the Airway fielders in the
last two innings was the margin
of defeat for their team.

are eighteen holes or tin cups
