Unemployed Key to Lumbering Tariff Debate
Washington observers heard Mortimer B. Doyle of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association press for a 10 percent import quota on Canadian softwood lumber to curb unemployment. Doyle cited a drop in domestic employment from 467,700 in 1947 to about 306,000 last year and urged stamping Canadian lumber with Canada to curb shipments. Rep. Clem Miller warned that rising imports threaten the western economy and lumber districts, noting the impact on Northern California jobs.
