Pulpwood Goal 14,000,000
Cords For 1944
A domestic pulpwood:
production goal of 14,000,-;
000 Cords—l,ooo,ooo cords,
more than in 1943—is the
objective of the 1944 Cic
tory Pulpwood Campaign,
the Victory Pulpwood Com
mittee announced last week
Accepting a challenge of;
the War Production Board
to step up pulpwood pro
duction to meet increased
military and essential civi
lian requirements, the com
mittee said that this area
will do its part to back the
projected invasion of Hit
ler’s enslaved stronghold in
western Europe.
Os the 14,000,000 cords
needed in 1944, the Appala
chian must produce 1,550,-
000 cords.
Despite critical manpow
er and transportation eq
uipment shortages, James
L. Madden. Deputy Direc
tor of the WPB Paper Di
vision in charge of pulp
wood production, expressed
the opinion that the 1,000,-_
000 extra cords can be ob
tained in 1944 if current
Government-Newspaper-In-.
dustry programs are car
ried out.
“It will be a tough job”,
Mr. Madden said, “but it
will not be an impossible
one. The newspapers in
pulpwood producing areas
have been carrying on a
successful drive in 27 states
in cooperation with the,
pulpwood industry Three
Government agencies are
now working together to
mobilize more farm work
ers for off-seasono woods
work. Many mills are co
operating in local pulpwood
production drives.
“Because of the seasonal
character of pulpwood op
erations in many areas, it
is important that no lime
be lost now,” Mr- Madden
added. “Pulpwood cutting
should be pushed to the ut
most in months when man
power is available to offset
periods when farmers will
be engaged in planting or
cultivating field crops.
“Moreover, it is now that
the need is greatest as
America and her Allies pre
pare for the invasion of
western Europe A cord of
pulpwood today is more
important to the war ef
fort than ten cords a year
or even six months from
now.”

TURN WARTIME
WASTE TO PROFITS
“Christmas Tree waste
| deplored by WPB. Thous
ands burnel ” This head
line came out of Washing
ton the other day, and it
adds a sombre note to the
nation’s pulowood drive for
14,000,000 cords in 1944.
j Waste is deplorable at
any time; it is nothing
short of tragic at this time.
The tragedy lies no. in
the burning of the trees so
much as in the waste of
manpower, of time, and. of
transportation equipment.
Christmas trees could not
be used for pulpwood; they
are too small. They were
too green for fuel.
The over-supply came
about because a few persons
tried to reap quick, high;
profits-/* - J hey suffered
from'Tneir own greed.
How much better for ev-j
eryone ;concernel, and es
pecially for the war effort,
if this wasted manpower 1
and equipment had been
used to cut pulpwood For
pulpwood production is not
only essential to our mili
tary success; it pays reas
onable and lependaole pro
fits. And its largest return
will be Victory.
Let’s back the boys at the
i front in ’44 with extra cords
of pulpwood.

YANCEY COUNTY WAR LOAN COMMITTEE
G. L. HENSLEY, Chairman
County Quota $90,000
YOU KNOW that this year may bring great victories—
if every American, civilian as well as soldier, stands
loyally at his or her post. And, whatever else your duties
may call for, there is one job that concerns every citizen—
that concerns you: That is to help make 1944 one of the
decisive years of human history. So make whatever sacri
fice taiy be necessary to help make the 4th War Loan
Drive the success it must be if we are to realize our great
objectives this year.
Ask yourself honestly—how much of a sacrifice is it to
give up some luxury just temporarily in order to buy the
best investments in the world? When you’ve answered
that question, buy at least one extra SIOO Bond now—at
your office or plant, if possible. And if you’ve already
bought, buy again this month—and keep ’em! *
