CIANT COLD DECKS itretch into th hazi of dijtance i th big Dillard branch mill of the
Roieburg Lumber company.
Approximately 30 million fear of lumber it contained In the logi in these decks. 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. I Story and pictures by Paul Jenkins I

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."
"I have three reasons for think
ing this," he said. "By that time,
Russia will have a supply of
atomic bombs. Secondly, the Rus
sians feel that Americans are dis
united during any presidential
election year.
"Thirdly, the Russians believe
that Marshall-plan aid will run
dry about that time. They think
we can't keep on pumping money
Into Europe. When our linancial
aid to European countries is at
an end, it will be much easier for
them to step in and take over."
