National Timber Supply

The long-range forestry outlook for the United States is more favorable than at any time since the beginning of commercial lumbering, Corydon Wagner, of Tacoma, Washington, told the American Lumber Congress at its opening June 16 in Chicago, Illinois.

Wagner is chairman of the Joint Committee on Forest Conservation, which represents the West Coast Lumbermen's and Pacific Northwest Loggers Associations. More than 1,000 manufacturers of lumber and timber products from all sections of the country attended the Congress to discuss future plans for the lumber industry.

Wagner traced the history of the timber famine forecasts, beginning in 1819. He emphasized that the predicted shortages lrad failed to materialize, largely because the steadv year-by-year growth of new forests had not been taken into account.

The forest situation, Wagner said, is constantly improvirg. He referred to the fact that between 1920 and 1944 the nation's total area of devastated forest land rvas reduced by 6,000,000 acres, although during that period 150,000,000 acres of 'forest land were cut in the normal course of logging operations.

"We have in this country adequate forest land to justify confidence that we will never exhaust ollr resources," \Magner told the Congress. "When we consider the full growth on all the trees in our forests, rve find that drain is being replaced by grorvth. This is the first forest inventory in our history which has shown that balance."

Wagner concluded his address with a plea for cooperation in a program to increase forest development.

"We urge," he said, "that our federal forest officials and spokesmen of other groups put an end to the famine talk and join the forest industries in an expanding program of education and example to bring into the fullest possible realization the trernendous potential grorving polver of our forest lands.

"Industry is au'akening to tl-re necessity of improving its own practices. A good start has been made, although there is and no doubt always will be much room for continued improvement."
