Portland, Ore., Dec. 30 (U.R) The west coast lumber industry today accepted the challenge of vital war demands and said an attempt will be made to pro duce .79,000,000 feet more of boards and millions of feet ol dimension lumber each month for the next 90 days. U. S. army engineers placed the new demand on the industry, resulting in a conference here between some SO west coast loggers and lumber operators, Col. Fred G. Sherill, chief of the lumber buying organization known as CPA; Fred Brundage, western lot and lumber admin istrator: Mai. Raleigh Chinn Portland head of CPA, and Com. Henry Anderson, the navy representative in the same of fice.

Ships Coming Nearly a score of ships will be coming into west coast ports in the next few weeks to get lumber and boards, said Mai Chinn" and MacArthur can't wait." Ma). Chinn added: "I want to appeal to every log ger in the west coast to get on the job and keep those sawlogs flowing to our mills. We Just can't let up now, when our fighting men need this lumber so desperately. And we can't get out the boards unless the logs come to the sawmills." Supply Critical . Brundage said the log supply already is critical and' express ed hope there would not be a heavy winter, with deep snow which could cut down the log in ventory in the Columbia river and harbor and sound areas to a point here many mills would have to cease operations. Boards usually run about 10 per cent of total production, but every mill in the west coast region will be asked to take on a full load of this board busi ness at once. In order to meet the demands, the industry will have to increase its board pro duction to 20 per cent or more ner mill, which will mean a sac rifice of other items maae irom the log.
