SUPERIORITY OF PINE
| OVER OTHER WOOD, TOLD

AS result of . conference between
representative of the Navy Depart
ment and officials of the Southern
yellow Pine Association, held in New
orleans yesterday, an increased de.
mand for yellow pine grown and man.
ufactured in this section of the United
States, likely will result within the
next few weeks.
The association officials. working
with the representatives of The Navy
department and of the United States
Forestry Service have about succeed.
ed in convincing the government thar
millions of dollars may be saved an.
nually by cooperating with the pine
mills of Mississippi, Louisiana and
Alabama.
H. T. Wright, Industrial agent of
the Navy Department, appeared be-
fore committees of the association at
yesterdays meeting. The question of
inducing the Navy Department to
have its specifications for timbers cor
respond with those of the association
and of the commercial companies OF
the country which consume yellow
pine, were taken up. 1t was shown
that the specifications of the govern.
ment bureau at this time are antiouat-
ed, having been adopted years ago
when the Southern pine industry was
in its infancy.
Specifications Antiquated.
An example of how out-of-date the
government specifications are, was
given. Ceiling and flooring specifica-
tions of the association call for prod.
ucts of from 8 to 20 feet in length.
The government specifications call
for timbers of from IL to so feet in
length. Should the navy want S.foot
material, the 12-foot ceiling and floor. |
ing would be cut off, leaving a waste
of feet.
1t is understood that the Forestry
Service has seen the advantages to be
derived from revising the government
and will use its influ-
ence in having a revision made.

sociation, of which w. ]. Haynen, of

of aldermen views with alarm the on
slaught of "scooters" in Natchez and
believes that some action should be
taken to restrain their activity which
he declares is pernicious.

Alderman Mcclure has a fine CO.

of his residence. This has met with
much popularity among the small boys
and the scooters joyfully scoot from
early morn until, dewy eve and only
the activity of the alderman has saved
him from collision. At the regular
meeting of the board of aldermen. Mr..
Mcclure demanded that action to re-

Mayor W. G. Benbrook admitted
that the advent of ne scooter has ter.

to the aldermen whose embonpoint
prevented sprinting the methods used
by him-to back up against wall or
climb a fence when a scooter is heard
coming and remain perfectly still un-

decided to instruct the police depart
