To quote the traditional newspaper comparison example, this represents enough lumber to furnish con struction of 3,000 five-room homes, which, we may assume, could house an average of 12,000 people. Extensive cold decking of logs at mill sites during summer months is a growing custom. The weather, normally inclement here in winter, makes logging difficult and undependable; and the cost of building and maintaining all-season access roads is exorbitant and the practice is shunned except under the most favorable circumstances.

Editors Told Chinese Not Run From Moscow (Continued From Page One) courage Titoism but should not be based on the assumption that it is certain to develop. Pulitlzer prize-winner Larry Allen, recently stationed at War saw, Poland, told the group yes terday: "If there Is to be a war with Russia, I think it will come by the end of 1952."
