can paper mills from private forests
III Quebec has suppressed data that

scntcd the situation"
The consuls report said that the re-
cent prohibitions win not have the
effect Of reducing the quantity Of pulp
wood for export for some years to come
aud perhaps never" implying that all
tie present needs of the American
market viz 1.000,00o cords Of pulp
wood per annunl. could be obtained
from private forests, but according to
TIE committee the suppressed data
frolh official sources showed thtt only
$330,0I0 cords rer annum would. under
present restrictions. be available for
the American market. \
The letter charges that an area Of
