LUMBER MARKET ANY
THING BUT PROMISING
Over Production Said To
BE Cause OF Present
Conditions

The conditions in the lumber in
dustry are far from promising. In
spite of the volume of big recent
orders, the mills of the country
have been producing at too heavy
a rate, and unless there is a change,
the statistics indicate that there
may be reason to fear return of
the depression which marked 1918
and 1914. The chart prepared
each month by the National Lum-
Der Manufacturers Association in
dicates that the volume of produc-
ton has passed the volume Of
shipments and orders. and that
production is increasing while ship.
ments are decreasing.
This condition, however, is being
recognized in some sections of the
country by the manufacturers.
On the West Coast, many mills are
curtailing production, by shorten
Ing the hours of operation of their
mills materially. Some of the
smaller mills have not thought such
a course necessary, but the larger,
producers are realizing that the cur
failing of production is an economic
! necessity of the industry.
The Southern Pine manufactur.
ers are also in many instances be-
ginning to curtail production. Such
curtailment is in no way general,
but is rather a sporadic realization
of the need Of preventing overpro'
ductien to an extent that might
seriously affect general business in
the industry,

In view of the fact that the
United States now faces war with
Mexico, the elaborate Fourth OF
July celebration which was planned
has been called off. However, a

Mayor Sullivan made the sueges'
ton that the fund which had been
subscribed to the Fourth of July
be used for the benefit of the Boea'
lusa troops. The suggestion was
hailed with delight in every Sec
ton of the city, and numbers who
had not yet been called upon to
contribute to the Fourth Of July
fund. announced that they would
gladly give for the Bogalusa boys
who will be called to the front
AS the celebration stood yester'
day, it was decided to elaborate
more on the Preparedness Parade

a few minutes later young men
were aroused from their sleep and
reported to their superiors At
daylight when citizens learned of
the orders, patriotism developed
that made the men who had seen
service want to enlist. Wherever
men met the sole discussion was
the question of war. Early Monday
morning the troops, who were
stationed in GOODYEAR Park were
drilled, and hundreds looked with
pride upon the Bogalusa men who
are expected to be called into SER
vice any minute. A recruiting
station was opened. and Boealusa
