SHIPPED TO FRANCE,
! BY GEORGE MARTIN
I (United Press Stuff Correspondent.)
I WASHINGTON. Sept. 20. Even
! America's forests ore being shipped
I to Europe to help win the war Ore-it
fir tracts along; the Columbia in Ore
gon, the Red Cross announced today,
are being hewn, loaded on ships
there, shot through the Panama canal
to New York and hurled across to
France.
Thus it falls out that permanent
quarters for Red Cross base hospitals
on the western front are being fash
ioned from the ranks of Oroson's
army of trees. The need for sending
American forests across the seas to
France is shown In the Red Cross
statement that "so scarce Is timber
In France that tents are now being
used to house many of the American
contingents."
"This shipment of lumber," said
the Red Cross, "Like many other
shipments of Red Cross supplies now
going abroad, is being mail-j through
the cooperation of the United States
ahiuDlnz board with the Ked Cross
war council. Chairman Edward N.
Hurley, of the Shipping Board, was
was a member of the War Council
until appointed to his present post.
"The railroads and the city ot Now
York have also aided In the estab
lishment of the new Red cross Trans
portation service. The railroads,
through the Railroads' war board.
have Issued orders that Red cross
shipments must not be held up by em
bargoes or any delays of ordinary
freight In these days of railway con
gestion.
"New York City has turned over
to the Red Cross a large warehouse
on the North river without charges,
and Commissioner of Docks and Fer
ries Smith is acting as associate direc
tor of the Red Cross supply service.
which has charge of the assembling of
all goods for shipment abroad.
"To help In this great service of
mercy at sea. the allied governments
have also taken the unusual step of
allowing their transports to be used
by the Red Cross. These will only
be used for supplies most urgently
needed abroad. The British Admiral
ty, the French and Italian govern
ments are all cooperating to this end."
"Pressure on shipping space has
become Intense." declared Davison, In
a letter to relief agencies cooperating
with the Red Cross, "and It Is abso
lutely necessary that for the presenr
nothing be shipped which Is not Im
peratively needed. Ocean shlppln-T
difficulties become greater each dav
the submarine warfare la continued.
