NATIONAL EDITORI AL_ fl40^>S$OCIATION P UILI s i ( e y 4-$[S.0^l A T101 OUR TIMBER SUPPLY Timber to keep the small sawmill operator going in this section may soon be at a premium. The reason for this is the enforcement of the provisions of the sustained yield basis, a forward looking policy so far as conservation is concerned, adopted by the forest agencies, which will insure a timber sup ply for a limited number of operators in years to come, but may spell the doom of a number of smaller mills as we know them today. In the past two years three substantial mills in this dis trict have ceased operations. One burned down, one suspended ami one is moving away. The three maintained a payroll of 150 men or better. What does this all add up to? It means that in the future we will get along with probably six or eight mills in this trad ing area, now served by approximately twice this number. It means further that the annual payroll will be reduced in pro portion unless we can find more diversification to take up tin* slack in the employment picture. By diversification we mean industries other than sawmills, it might be woodworking in dustries. wood waste plants, farming, dairying, mining, or other industries connected with farming, mining or timber. The problems of how to take up the slack in employment can be solved by the community, if wo mean business and are willing to work at the job. It won’t be solved by a bull session of some organization, where there is a lot of talk and no action. We have tried that for 50 years and it has not worked.

It has been estimateil that ‘ one billion dollars sjxmt by the government for relief of unemployment will produce ap proximately 500.000 jobs for one year at $2.000 each.

TO PREVENT THE BUM ’S RUSH According to press reports the Jackson county chamber of commerce proposed recently that foreign governments in need of money sell bonds directly to the American people instead of arranging loans from the American government. Chamber directors asserted that “bankrupt foreign nations . . . .are borrowing money for the purpose of advancing so cialistic economics.” Bond sales, claimed the chamber, would enable Americans favoring “said socialistic theories” to loan the money, while those opposing could keep their hands in their pockets, ___ ________ X-RAY UNIT HERE FRIDAY The Mobil X-Ray unit will be here tomorrow, set up west of the Jefferson school gym for the purpose of taking free pictures as previously mentioned in the Sentinel.

There are plenty of Christmas trees for everyone in this green land, but to properly protect our forest re sources, they should be scientifically harvested . . . just as garden crops are thinned. In the Aoods such work must be guided by experts if wc are to enjoy the long-range advantages of the millions of acres now in new young trees. Keep in mind, too, that many thousands of these new “tree farms” are owned in small plots by farm ers of this area. It really isn’t fair to go into such unposted lands and take crops that are growing for the future of farm children. Will you cooperate ... so that there’ll be many, many Merry Christmases ahead for everyone in this great wood growing country?
