August 1 is the effective date of the or der. What does this new babe in the woods look like? For one thing, it has arms longer than any crea ture that ever roamed the forest in Paul Bunyan’s day. Directly or indirectly, it reaches into every swale or hog back of the hill coun try, every ravine of the Cascades. It affects the big factories that consume lumber and the guy who wants a board to fix his step. It is the “reachingest” regulation ev er to hit the lumber industry. Somewhere in-between is the man in the sawmill. How does it affect him? To the sawyer at the headrig it is not necessarily a de cision as to the best way to slice up a log, but the best way to get the most sticks that will match the or ders piled high in the office. To the tractor operator at the other end of the line, he is no longer picking up just another load of lumber. He is picking up stuff with a name and address on it. This is ear-marked production "with the bark on" By last count, there were 1,115 sawmills producing West Coast lumber in Washington and Ore gon. The output of all Class A. B, and C mills, or 81 per cent of the total production, comes square ly under the provisions of this new order. Everyone of them must keep 35 per cent of each month’s business available for the military aims of the government. Every one of them must also be ready to put first in any day's cut an order directed by the War Production Board or an order carrying AAA priority. Some of them are now coming to the coast mills from stricken Port Chicago on San Fran cisco bay. If some of the class D mills (un der 25M ft. per 8 hr. day) threw on another log, they’ll be in it too. Otherwise, they must accept pri ority orders if offered, an unrated orders from distributors for the rest of their production. Indeed, the man in the sawmill is important. If he muffs so much as a board foot, the schedule of vital needs to finish off the war will be short just that much. To the extent that he knows his bus iness and does his job, the plan will have that measure of success. News Subscriptions Will Soon Be Frozen We have just received notice that in the near future weekly newspapers, as well as dailies, will have their subscription lists frozen and no new subscribers will be al lowed. The subscription list of The Il linois Valley New« has been grow ing very fast in the last few months, and while we would like to see all the people in the valley get The News, we have about reached our limit as far as subscriptions ar concerned. We are giving our readers this tip—the postoffine department re quires that our subscriptions be paid in advance. We will try our best to keep you informed when your subscription expires. If it is not renewed in a reasonable time, we will conclude that you do not want the paper, and we will sell it to the next one that wants it, for we will not be allowed, if the plans go through, to accept new subscriptions. Until this order is received, we would like to have those who want The News in the valley, subscribe at once, then when the order comes, you will be on the list. Otherwise, when the order comes to freeze the subscription list, no new subscriptions can be sold un til someone drops out. Get on the subscription list now, as soon as you can. We may re ceive this order any day. --------------o-------------- V Monday, Augut 14th.
