Ill rr- xt 111 At $5.00 a Month HOME MILLS IN LINE Col. Disque Favors Cutting of Spruce in Oregon. DIRECTOR WANTS FACTS Army Man Glad to Place Contracts Here Because of Great Saving in Car Space if Mills Have -Adequate Facilities. Colonel Disque, commanding the spruce production division of the Sig nal Corps, with headquarters at Port land, has pledged himself to act favor ably upon the application of Oregon mills that they be given contracts for cutting parts for airplanes. If they can show him that they are adequately equipped with machinery and men for the purpose. That they are so equipped and are able to handle such work to the satis faction of the Government, is the as sertion of members of the Planing Mill Association of this state, who have taken up the subject and are now en gaged in making an exhaustive survey, preparatory to filing a complete report of their findings with Colonel Disque. This subject is one of the most im portant now up for discussion in con nection with the spruce production programme of the Government, as it has many features that appeal strong ly to Colonel Disque, who is right on the ground, and to members of the Air Craft Board, at Washington. One of the chief savings would be in cars, as it is .estimated that several hundred cars would be saved for ether purposes should the dimensioning of the output be contracted with local mills. "There seems to be no question as to the ability of the Oregon mills to ban die the dimensions of the spruce cut,' eald W, D. it. Dodson, executive secre tary of the Chamber of Commerce, who is in close touch with the situation. "No doubt the planlng-mill owners will be 'able to show Colonel Disque that they are equipped w.lth the necessary machinery for the work and that they have or can get sufficient experienced men to handle the machinery. If this is done, it will mean, a great saving in cars alone, and, as there is a shortage of these, it would mean much to the Government to be able to ship spruce already dimensioned and do away with the using of needless car space. In addition, it would, of course, mean much to the city and state commercially, and there is no reason why It should net be done." , The Government programme now calls for an average monthly output of 11.000,000 feet of spruce throughout the first six months of 1918. Colonel Disque is directing for the Signal Corps a multitude of details, and a big force of men in the execution of this big task, to which 'he was personally assigned by Secretary of War Baker. Headquarters are in the Yeon bulldrng and the field of - activity' extends throughout the spruce forests o Ore gon and Washington. To win the war by airplanes is the slogan for the big drive.
