Comment
on the
Day's Nezvs
By FRANK JENKINS
A BIO lumber manufacturer on
Coos bay announces that he will
fight the principle of limitation of
output Involved In the NRA lumber
code carrying bis fight, If necesssry.
to the highest authority In the coun
try before discharging any one of his
800 employees when his allotted hours
of operation have been used up.
AT first thought, we are Inclined
to applaud.
The purpose of NRA, we tell our
selves, is to CREATE Jobs not to
destroy them. How are we going to
create purchasing power If mills that
have orders and could go on operat
ing are to be required to shut down
when their allotted operating time
has expired?
nPHE- soberer second thought, how.
1 ever, presents a different pic
ture. The manufacturing capacity of the
lumber Industry la far In excess of the
demand for lumber. If production goes
on unchecked, the result Is that tho
market . Is over-supplled, prices fall.
shut-downs occur and the first thing
we know the Industry Is flat of its
bark and the communities that de
pend on It are In a bad way.
All this, remember, because opera
tions are.csirled on too long", Instead
of being shut down In time.
IN the past, as everyone knows, the
lumber business out In this coun
try has been either a feast or a fam
ine. In times of feast, with the mills
operating at or somewhere near ca
pacity, everything has been lovely,
with big payrolls creating prosperity
In the lumber communities. But In
the ensuing periods of famine, with
the market over-supplied, prices be
low cost of production, mills down
and men out of Jobs, conditions In
the lumber communities have been
anything but lovely.
ARnd we have all seen that happen
time and again.
nriHROUGH the operation of the
1 lumber code, which Is a part of
the NBA program, It it hoped to
STABILIZE the lumber Industry by
holding production down to the lim
its of demand during those periods
when the market appears to be on
the upgrade so as to avoid the con
dition of over-supply thst later
wrecks the Industry and throws Its
workers out of employment.
The Idea, put Into Its simplest
form. Is to have a little less now so
that we may have a little more later.
THL5 writer, who has spent the
greater part of his business life
in communities dependent upon the
- lumber Industry, believes It Is far
better for such communities to have
a stabilized Industry, with depend
able payrolls year in and year out.
t.nn to have alternate periods of
boom and depression.
The purpose of the lumber code I
to bring about exactly this condition
of stabilization, so that those wno
HAVE JOBS may be reasonably sure
they will continue and those who de
pend upon payrolls for their busi
ness may be reasonably certain that
these payrolls will continue. ,
This writer, therefore, hopes that
this effort to upset the llmltalon of
ouput feaure of the lumber code will
not succeed.
IT is pretty tough to have to shut
down In the fac of what appears
to be the possibility of further opera
tion, thus throwing men out of Jobs
which might have been continued a
little longer.
But we can't sell more lumber than
there Is a market for we have proved
that time and again. If more lumber
Is manufactured than can be sold
there must be general shut-downs
and losa of employment.
The lumber code Is merely an effort
to keep production within the limits
of demand so that operation may be
continued steadily, year In and year
out. That
rhat most of us want
to see more than anything else.
