Washington, D. C., January 9-John W. Snyder, Director of War Nlobilization and Reconversion, today made public an inter-agency report which showed that;

Exports of lumber in 1945 amounted to less than 1.4 per cent of total United States lumber production;

Imports of lumber to this country since the war have been consistently twice as large as lumber exports, and more than half the imports for the first nir-re months of 1945 rvere types of lumber normally used for construction;

After careful screening by the Department of Commerce and the Civilian Production Administration, foreign requirements for 1945 were set at 1 billion board feet, but actual exports shipments did not exceed 375,000,000 board feet.

After revieu'ing' the report, Mr. Snyder asked the Department of Comnrerce and the Civilian Production Administration to continue their careful screening of lumber export requirements in 1946.
