NORTHWEST MUST DOUBLE
PRODUCTION OF SPRUCE
Nation Looks to This Section to Sup.
ply Lumber for Airplane
Needs.

Americas supremacy in the air de-
mands that the Northwest double its
production of spruce and fir airplane
stock by the end of the year. Wood is
the crying need of the airplane pro-
duction program today.
This message was delivered to the
members of the West Coast Lumber
mems association, in convention at
Paradise inn, Mount Rainier, Satur-
day evening by John d. Ryan. direc-
tor of the aircraft production board
of the United States.
Upon the Northwest must be relied
for the bulk of the wood to make the
thousands of airplanes America must
ship to France to drive the Germans
from the air and blind them. the di-
rector told the assembled lumber
manufacturers.
He gave full credit to his prede-
cessors for the work they had done
in getting the airplane program under
way, said things were not so back
ward as represented to the public
when he too kchafge and that pres
ent production, while not what must
be, is sufficient to offer great hope
of maximum production soon.

GOVERNOR RESIGNS
AS DRAFT OFFICER
EMPHASIZES DISAPPROVAL OF
SUPPLYING STATE WORKERS
TO FEDERAL SERVICE.

In acknowledgment of notification
that Captain l. w. Ziegaus, executive
state draft officer, would be advanced
to duty at Washington, D. c., as soon
as his successor here could be nomi-
mated and appointed, Governor Lis
ter further emphasized his disap-
proval of supplying state officers to
Federal service by wiring General E.
H. Crowder a request that his own
resignation as official draft supervi-
sion head in this state be accepted.
He declined to nominate successor
to Ziegaus, and asked the provost
marshal to assume direct responsible
ity and make the appointment him
self.
Several weeks ago when the presi-
dent appointed DR.. Henry Suzzalo.
chairman of the State Council OF De-
tense, to the Federal Board of Labor
Dispute Umpires, Governor Lister
made a public statement of his disap-
prevail of any attempt to call SUE
zalo away from the state. Suzzalo
has apparently declined the appoint
ment. Ziegaus did not decline his
chance for promotion, but the gov
errors action is regarded as the same
thing, since governors have been as
TWO-Standard
signed to draft supervision in their
states and have the nomination of Off
GERS to do the actual work.
In explanation to Crowdcr. Cover
nor Lister says the system of handl-
ing draft work in this state has been
built up to stage of efficiency that
iustifies his relief from further larti-
cipation in it. so that he may give
more time to war work in which he
feels he can be of greater assistance
in winning the war.

In compliance with the numerous
