Schultz testified this morning as te the condition of Juneau Lumber Mills property when he came to in- | spect it in January, 1947. He told of formation of neau Spruce Corporation purchase of the mill; made to the property, rations since his arrival June 4, 1948, to become manager. Other evidence covered labor-management relations ang mill production, sales and possible sales, Schultz, then an employee of the Coos Bay Lumber Company, said he made the 1947 inspection, later helped form the Spruce Corpora- tion, in which ‘he tought stock and of which he was elected to the lLoard of directors He describes changes in both plant and production, mentioning that a second shift was put almost immediately, purchases for mill improvements. SHIPPING REFUSED Schultz next was questioned on attempts to ship lumber while the mill was open last summer, and re- yeatedly gave longshoremen’s re- fusal to load or unload as the reason for lack of shipments. “Did the longshoremen ever con- tact you or talk to you about sett- ling the dispute?” asked Norma Banfield, attorney for plaintitt Schultz described a meeting ak the middle of Cctober at which Verne Allbright, saying he was a representative of the International organization, stateq he had a picket lide and was prepared to keep it 20 years if necessary, and that wanted to negotiate Schultz i he answered that it was Allbr Lusiness how long he would keep it there, that the ccmpany had a contract with In- ternatonal Woodworkers o America covering the disputed work the Ju- and its of repairs and of ope- but, if the two CIO unions could get together on the matter he, Schultz, would recommend that| agreement to the company board. “Did the IWA and ILWU ever come tack to tell the result of their conferences?” asked Banfield. “No,” answered Schultz MILL'S PRODUCTION In a further line of questioning, Schultz testified that the mill, if open, could have produced 50 mil- Lon feet of lumber a year, that sufficient logs were available for such production, also labor supply, finances and tugboats. George Schmidt, assistant man- ager of Juiieau Lumber Mills who was kept on in the same capacity after the purchase by Juneau Spruce, was called as a defense wit- ness earlier this mornirg, after opposm'g counsel argued attorney Anderson's request in the absence of the jury. The court allowed this, subject to his testimony being entered in| its proper sequence, as Schmidt will be out of the city when the defense case is presented. He was questioned about the con- tract in operation between the changeover May 1, 1947 and sign- ing of a new contract November 3, 1947.
