Big-Increase Seen In

By Dennis Hinton
From figures released recently
by the Washington State Depal't-
ment of Fisheries, indications are
that by the end of 1962 the salmon

'hould be up to It times an much
as 12 years ago.
To cope with the rising number
of salmon fishermen who trek to
these waters, tlle Department of
Fisheries has responded with
heavily increased plants in recent
years. What this means to the
angler in these should be more
Hsh to be had in the future than
ever before.
writing, indicated they will au :o.
But one familiar name wo"'t be
in the political arena this time.
County clerk Harry Deyette, who
attained his 80th birthday May 6,
is retiring after 32 years service
in the two county offices of audi-
tor and clerk. He served four
terms, 16 years, in each office.
With Deyette surrendering his
title as patriarch of the politicians
in Mason County, the honor falls
on the broad shuldc"s of Good-
paster, who will be seeking re-
election to his fifth term as school
superintendent.
Burnett will be seeking" his
fourth term as asseor, McClana-
ban, Potter and Gem thmr uurd
as prosecutor, sheriff and treasur-
er. Mason, the only Republican in
the group outside of Deyette, is
now in his first term as auditor.
DEYETTE'S retirement is ex-
eeted to throw the raee for coun-
clerk wide open and political
observers predict this office will
probably draw th largest field of
contenders.
Although no candidate has filed

• Tariff In ere ase Brings
Plea for Lumber Quota
which has Cost 200,000 jobs in Temple reminded the President,
" . . he has stated a policy which
is precisely the burden of the
American lumber industry's re-
quest for a temporary quarterly
quota on Canadian softwood
lun'ber."
Temple said the lumber industT
had been advised that the United
States Treasury Department has
announced the intention of the
United States to accept the Can-
adian acion as being temporm T
and of an emergency nature and
has declined to require Upward ad-
justment in U.S. tariff rates on
Canadian goods. He pointed out
that sucl action is clearly indi-
cated under existing Reciprocal
Trade Agreements.

that that government is prepared

the United States is teling under
the direct impact of these Can-

split his legislative service into

It offers the Interesting possi-
bility of Mason County having two

which has precedent for during

state body Savage served along
with the late George N. Adams.
A NEW NAME appeared on the
24th district scene with the fil-
ing of Clayton Fox, Port Angeles
newspaper writer, as a Republican
candidate for one of the represen-
tative seats.
The two incumbent Democrats
from Port Angeles, Paul Conner
and Dr. James F. McFadden, are
expected to seek reelection.
On the Congressional front, In-
cumbent 3rd district representa-
tive Julia Butler Hansen (Demo-
crat) was a first-day filer for re-
election to the post in which she
is now serving her first term, while
Edwin J. Alexander, Olympia
weekly newspaper publisher, has
filed as a Republican aspirant for
the seat.

"We recognize that our Can-
adian friends are confronted with
fi.cal and financial difficulties,"
Temple wrote the President. "We
share the prevailing American
sentiment that we should stand
by these longtime friends in this
crisis.
"However," he added, "we do
not believe that the burden of
supporting a sound fiscal position
for the Canadian nation should
be largely, borne by the privately
owned and operated lumber in-
dustry in the United States."
.. SOIIWOOD LUMBER imports
from Canada presently occupy
more than 14 per cent of United
States lumber markets and have
increased more than 20 per cent
over a year ago, according to
Department of Commerce figures.
Referring to White House action
creating an interagency task force
to "analyze the basic factors at
work and to consider possible sol-
utions," Temple stated, "The 'basic
factors at work' are, in my opinion
and in the opinions of my col-
leagues m the American lumber
industry, either self-evident or are
treated exhaustively in the hear-
ings of the Senate Commerce Com-
mittee recently concluded." )

" ' r ' botll coulltrien have under-

The principal one is that neither

determined to be necessary to

Temple connnentcd, "It is ap-

are not complete for the year, are
already more than 5,000 pounds
