THE NEW BALBOA

Georgia-Pacific's I'rocery and multiwall paper bag plant adjacent to its Toledo, Oreg'on paper rnill, as well as its new corrugated box plant at Modesto, California, are expecrted to be i'n operation during April, management says. Engineering plans for a new pulp and pape,r mill at E,ureka-Samoa, California are nearing completion and construction will start later this year for completion around the end of 1963. The mill will produce appnoximately 300 tons per day of bleached kraft paper and board, bu,t it will not be necessary to harvest a single additional tree since the mill will be operated entirely on chips from the company's Eureka-Samoa opera,tions.

Georgia-Pacific management stated its belief rthat resul,ts will improve even lurther in the second quarter an.d throughout the year on the basis of increasing demand and prices for products an,d expected acceleration in ,the economy.

Georgia-Pacific is a leading integrated forest products company which manufactures paper, pulp, oontainerboard, plywood, hardboard, redwood special,ties, lumber, and wood chemicals.
