Estimate for Year Is Based
On Orders in First Half
High Grades Sought
Seattle, July 10. VP) The
nation! defense requirements
will probably take close to a
billion feet of west coast lumber
this year.
The West Coast Lumbermen's
Association, reporting June bus
iness today, said the estimate
was based on the first six
months' orders and expected or
ders the rest of the year.
'This demand is particularly
strong on high grades and large
sizes that cannot be produced
elsewhere In the United States,"
the association said. "It bears on
such items as piling and timbers
for shipyard construction, plank
ing, decking and keel timbers
for wooden ships, high-grade
boxcar material, and the maxi
mum amount of lumber adapted
to airplane construction."
Near Capacity
With the recent ending of the
International Woodworkers of
America strike, the association
said, the industry Is again oper
ating near full capacity. The
withdrawal of lntercoastal ship
ping from normal trade lanes
was described as the "most crit
ical" development.
Weekly production in June
averaged 157,920,000 board feet,
or 89.1 per cent of estimated
capacity, compared with the
May average of 153,167,000 feet.
June weekly orders and ship
ments were 179,256,000 and 172,
584,000 feet, respectively. The
comparable May figures were
183,965,000 and 171,583,000
feet.
The year's production (26
weeks) has been 4,224,342,000
feet, compared with 3,482,067,
000 feet in 1940 and 3,056,652,
000 feet in 1939. The industry's
unfilled order file stood at 813,
888,000 feet at the end of June,
