Fage 6 Forest Product Plans Aid! Governor R. Gregg Cherry, re- j cognizing the urgent need of for- e est prodiic.s to meet the war de- t mands, and at the request of the J War Production Board and indus- e t:y representatives, held a con- t ference of lumbermen, pulp and r paper manufacturers, and repre- r sentatives cf agricultural and for- c estry agencies and the various r war activities groups. This conference, held Friday, February 9, c checked the record of progress E in No:th Carolina and found that 3 we have done remarkably well 0 In supplying lumber and pulp- j, wood, but at the same time be- j. lieves that we can do more in _ helping to meet this urgent need, j, The War Production Board e shows the critical need for forest a - p.oducls in this' statement on 1 lumber and pulpwood: LUMBER: "Lumber is now in such short supply that a number s of important military programs a are affected. Unless action is Sl i merlin f plv tn rplipvfi the ^ manpower and equipment situa- P tion, it will be necessary for e the military to re-schedule some ? cf their essential programs to al- 0 low the use of substitute mater- b ials. "Overall lumber production has si decreased steadily, month by & month, since August. The total ? estimated lumber requirements a for the first quarter of 1945 are ii 9167.000,000 board feet, as o r.r:- nst an anticipated supply P sed upon fourth quarter 1944 o prcduction) of 7,490,000,000 boatd b leet. This represents a deficit of o 18'I. At a meeting of the Lum- ti ber Industry Advisory Committee n on December 15, a pool of the f committee members oh their esti-! mates of production in the first v qua ter of 1945 disclosed a joint opinion that first quarter produc- 0 tion may be reduced an additional p below the anticipated pro- v duction indicated above. Under 0 such conditions, the gap between ,| supply and requirements would be so great that drastic further restrictions would have to be ap- ti plied to variotfs essential pro- . grams."

Without this certificate, the1 DT official explained, no gasone rations will be allotted and le use.of such equipment will ot be permitted. Mr. Roseman ointed out that as a part of its rogram to conserve equipment, j arts, tires, gasoline and man-! ower, the ODT "froze" the usje of all trucks, buses, taxicabs rid other commercial motor vehiles as of O tober 25 1943. Since A lat date no extension cf pre- ^ mt usage or inauguration of 1 sw service is permitted under DT regulations without prior ap- j roval of the ODT. Such approval lay only be given when: 1.
