LUMBER OUTPUT CONTROL NEEDED TO REMEDY ILLS Recovery Administration Told Prostrate Industry Did Not Share Boom of '23-29 Wages Will Wait WASHINGTON, July 31. (AP) Postponing discussion of noun and wages, the lumber Industry yesterday presented argument before trie re covery administration for the adop tion of lta method of controlling the output of forest producu. ' Spokesmen described the industry la prostrate and termed controlled production a necessity. The proposed code's maximum 40 to 48 hour-weekend minimum $10 to 30 wage scale are unaccpe table to the administra tion and these features are to be worked out later. Boom Not Shared Wilson Compton, manager of tha National Lumber Manufacturers' as sociation, outlined Vie economic background of the Industry, assert ing it did not share in the boom of 1923-1020 and was unprepared to meet the depression prices which fol lowed. W. B. Greeley, manager of the West Coast Lumbermen's association, ex plained the method of controlling production by allotting hours of op eration to each mill, with the nation divided Into geographical divisions of authority. Objection Voiced William Denman, Oregon lumber manufacturer, objected to the pro cedure being followed as not allow ing him sufficient time to present objections to certain features of the proposed code, particularly wlttl re gard to prioe fixing. He requested sddltlonal time. Dudley Cates. as ststant Industrial administrator, pre siding, reserved decision on bis plea. The cost of' carrying timber In vestments and tha consequent effort to liquidate such lnveetments, was described by Colonel Greeley as the principal cause of the present situ ation In "the Industry. Mill Run at Loss Xt has resulted In an effort to at tain at least some return by runatng mills at a loss on actual operation, he added In order to provide finances for tax payments and other costs. "Control of lumber production alone can check uneconomlo and wasteful use of raw material and provide a sound basis for conserva tion of forest resources," (he said. "This Is one of the declared'purpoees of the code. ' "The code purposely lays down no uniform rule or formula for alloca tion of production. Code authority will assign production quotas to va rious (geographic) divisions, by suit able periods, based upon lta beet es timate of anticipated consumption snd substantially In ratio of their former shipments, respectively, over repreaenatlve nerlods. General tule Impossible "Within each division, quotas will be allocated to Individual produoera In accordance with the most equit able method adapted to that divi sion. Conditions In lumber produc tion In different portions of the United states are so diverse that no general rule of Individual allocation la possible. "To attempt It would create In aqulty. This la because of varied controlling situations in different di rt, Ion os regarda single shift or double shift facilities, short seasons a compared with year-round opera tlona. and so forth. "In some dlvlalons allocations will b based upon the uniform number ef machine hours for all operating mills; in some divisions' upon oper ating capacities formerly eatabllahed; and In some on former volumes of lumber shipments." Tubllclty Necessary Cates asked Oreeley If hours of quota operation could be transfer red from one mill to another under proposed code and he replied In the negative. Cates also Inquired If It was planned that publicity be given to the factors on which quota are baaed. Oreeley said that auch was the case and Cates remarked: "I regard that ss necessary.
