F. R. Turns Down
Lumber Proposal
WASHINGTON', Feb. 27 (API
President Roosevelt has refused
to establish a new forest products
service with "a huge revolving
fund," the white house announc
ed last night.
"This and similar plans were
shelved in an effort to obtain the
same result more simply and eco
nomically," the statement said.
PH Chief Nelson and Secretary
of Agriculture Wlckard, it was
indicated, proposed the.forest pro
ducts service. The white house
said it would have been a large
organization with very extensive
powers.
Industry is turning out less
lumber than is needed, the state
ment said, due principally to lack
ol manpower. Holding out no
hope that more workers can be
provided, the white house, said
WPB will send out field expedi
tors to tell producers the specific
types of material needed for the
war, aid in arranging contracts
and assist in complicated proce
dures of procurement "which are
disheartening to many small op
erators." The expeditors also will help
obtain timber for mills which
have inadequate supplies of stand
ing timber.
U. Of O. Club To Meet The
University of Oregon Mothers
club will meet Wednesday eve
ning at a 7:30 dessert-supper at
the home of Mrs. B. R. Shoe
maker on Blakeley street. This
meeting was previously planned
for March 10, but was changed
to thisi week. An auction sale will
be a feature of the social hour. '
