Mob Storms Oregon Lumber Camp Over Jap Laborers

Several mill workers are beaten, three men named as alleged ringleaders are arrested, and at least fifty others are identified. The clash follows weeks of labor disputes and a heated street meeting led by a flag-waving marcher. No Japanese workers were injured.
