More Feet for War Need.

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

mention business In addition to
the heavy load already being
carried here in the west for air
craft lumber, truck body ma
terial and other structural and
stress grades made from Doug
las fir," he said.
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.
