The Plywood Situation

President Lawrence Ottinger, president of the United States Plywood Corporation, in his annual review and forecast of the situation said:

"The requirements of the Armed Forces for Douglas Fir plywood continue unabated and this particular kind of plywood is on allocation by the War Production Board and can only be obtained if released by them. Manpower shortage, both in the woods and in the plants, has resulted in curtailed production with no relief in sight.

"So many new uses have been found for this product that even if the mills were able to produce at capacity, they would not be able to fill requirements. The demand for the hardwood and technical plywoods, especially those bonded with synthetic resin and those faced with resin impregnated paper and metals, is large, especially in the heavier thicknesses.

"There has been a sharp curtailment in production of aircraft plywood due to the partial completion of government projects requiring that material.

"The postwar demand for plywood will in all probability continue to exceed production for many years to come since it will be required for housing projects all over the world,. for the rehabilitation of stores and other buildings, as well as for wide industrial use in its normal fields."
