I ^ ne of the reasons Changes in the eotweription law may take place this year. The Army wants the age minimum dropped to 1H— it prefers young men. A nother law may be proposed to give the l*resi«letit au thority to defer all men over 27. Conscripting older men has m ade for social and economic dislocations. According to officials, training is going ahead well, and the quality of men is the best in our history. Basic supply ami hous ing problems hiive been solved.However, some experts doubt t that a y e a r’s training is enough to tu rn a civilian into a crack soldier.

The tim e has ar- be brought against the lum ber industry is that of waste. Losses in acreage which is logged— and never grows another crop— runs into billions. No one has ever estim ated the losses in the logging and nulling proc-sses. Losses such as these can only be elim inated when science determ ines how to use the m aterials Wasted. Science, is m aking some headway. T hirty years ago the gov- em inent established a forest produets laboratory at Madison, Wisconsin. Many of the large wood using industries would not be operating todav if it were not for this laboratory. The build- ing, completed in 1832, has hern only h alf occupied and h alf tim e since its completion due to lack of funds. The time hqs ar- rived when funds should be available to properly operate this laboratory. W hile a num ber of lumbermen feel th a t the governm ent should bear this research burden as it does in agriculture, but the lutttber industry should consider its responsibilities in this connection. All of us are more or less scotch and hate to see so much waste. If ways and means were devised to utilize th is waste m aterial, it would mean much to communities such as this one both in providing additional payrolls as well as prolonging the hte of the lum ber industry. men urgently necded for the s y avy by June th irtie th .
