Lumber Conrumption Increr3e3

(Continued from Page 23)

General confidence was expressed by furniture manufacturers as a result of the well-distributed volume of sales at the January furniture marts. A generally better year in 1939 is forecast. Sales of lumber to the furniture factories have increased but not as yet to the extent anticipated in view of the record-breaking attendance at the January shows. Larger demand is currently expected.

The report recommends rectifying the "unwholesome balance" between exports and imports through larger export trade opportunities. "Preferential tariffs, foreign shipping subsidies and further protectionist trends in major foreign lumber markets in the opinion of the lumber industry continue to retard and suppress our foreign lumber trade."
