TIMBER TRADE I
. US STOPPED
Soviet Administration Makes
Export Impossible and
unprofitable v
VLADIVOSTOCK, Siberia, Jan
20. The timber trade of the Prt-
moria. one of Its greatest assets J
bringing an annual revenue of
one million sold roubles to prevl
us governments lias come to a
standstill since the Soviet took
over the administration pf this
province. As a result of conces
sion givenf To foreign firms, chief
ly Japanese, there being no Rus
sian capital available, exports of
timber reached 14,000,000 leet in
1921 and promised to be even
greater last year when the gov
ernment canceled all concessions
and imposed taxes and conditions
which made export Impossible and
unprofitable.
Concessions Annulled -
The concessions- covering - over
a million acres which haVe'been
cancelled' were - confined to the
StraiU ot Tartary. ; ; ,
Not only haa the Soviet annul
led the -concessions but it has de
manded that the concessionaires
shall pay to it stumpage on cut
timber., whlcb. : they had. already
paid to the previous government.
As a result- logging camps and
mills have dosed down, 'and there
were no 'bidders for' concessions
recently offered : at '-'public- auc
tion, f . i - . . : -.i ' , .;.,,. ; - . .
A timber merchant ' discussing
the 'situation said: 'The nearest
markets for the sale of timber aTe
China and Japan, and thesa coun
tries take irom 70 to 8 0 million
cubic feet a year from America,
which naturally fixes the market
price of timber. Instead of devel
oping export by reducing the
price of felling and for raflwaV
transit instead of the abolish
ment pt export taxes and reducing
for loading, i.e., for "the cheapen
ing of Russian timber in. order t6
compete with America, the ac
tions of the local authorities are
directed' in raising its price. First
the price for felling timber, wftich
was already hlghr ha been , in
creased; by, 10 ioLi per, cent, 'for
' the purpose of .-clearing areas over
. which thb timber Vha'a teen :u L
As a result of this ahd the . In
creased demands of , labor the cost
of laying down a log In Kobe Is
80 1-2 sen. This log, sells In
Kobe from' 70 to 80 sen. The
same applies to fishing' conces
sions." --' !

WHY, OWN .'YOUR OWN HOME?
r-W - -J
(For "Own Your Own Home Day"
National Thrift Week Cam
paign. Written by A.' C. Bohrn
; stedt.) - ; 1
In looking back over the years
what house or home has meant
most to you?. If, you happened fo
have lived ln the -middle states
probably it was the first corn crib
play' house Which "you "built; fwas
it hot? Or. if you are not so for
tunate as tot have livdin a corn
country the; first house you built
for a play tioase probably stands
out in you mind and is more pre
cious to you 'than any other house
that you had or lived in. Your
little neighbor may have had just
as nice or better house but the
one that you built or the one that
you dug out of the straw stack
with your own hands is the house
that you remember because you
built it. j .
There is j something about the
things that we , build and .the
things which we plan that mean
more to us than anything which
we can buy4ready made or ready
planned for us and this one thing
more . than f anything else is the
first reason why we should not
oniy plan but build, so far as we
canMour ewn home. -Home will
mean more to you and the city or
the state in which you live if built
by you. r- : .. , v , -:.
The second house that stands
out In i your memory more than
the play-house of your childhood
days is the f old! 3, home that you
lived In as a child. The child who
has not lived in one place long
enough that It has become home
to him is unfortunate, indeed, be
cause there Is nothhiff which
binds and individual to his home,
city, state and nation, closer than
the home ties, and if you do .not
have a home for your children,
you are depriving them of one of
the greatest inheritances that a
child can have. : 5
Home l; ownership , indicates
home, saving .and .demands thrift.
economy and the habit of saving
oh the : part of those who would
own s their, own - home;- therefore;
planning for a home and building
of a home stimulates the saving
habit which all should acquire.
i A city of well built and neatly
huilf homes with green lawns.
flowers and shrubs is where a per
son likes to live, a feeling of civic
pride should stimulate all of us
to practice j economy and thrift
that will enable us to' own pur
own home. ' - . ' -
Modest homes well built In Sa
lem" always sell readily and arc
an asset to the individual besides
saving him the outlay from month
to month of money for rent.
