William Gettings, regional dire ector for the union, said the local had wired a protest to the entire Washington Congressional Delega- tion. He said the Whittier call pro- vided that all American contract- ors would be bound by rules of! specifications but that foreign com- petitors would be exempt from cer- tain clauses. These, he said, provide a ban on convict labor, adherence to the eight-hour day, 40-hour week law, and require the use of American raw materials. Gettings said a Bellingham firm, | manufacturing cement, reccnnyi ‘losed down because of shipments of Japanese cement into Seattle He added that 42,000 barrels cement have been shipped from sapan to Whaittier, Alaska. Army sources here, however, said they were unaware of any call for bids to furnish cement at Whittler. They said,” however, that such a bid call might have been issued by a post officer at the scene. Occasional exemptions to the spe- cification rules are permitted, they said, but only on the action of a high-ranking official, A numbr of offers to furmish foreign made products, including | ocrefabricated houses from Sweden, for Alaska have been rejected here, | t was said In the Northwest, the weather bureau reiterates its forecast for a mild flood threat in late May or early June for Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Wash.
