Deary Press: A. l.. Mccormick, of
the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company,
at Tacoma recently stated that the
logging camps Of the northwest are
gradually opening, and he expects
the spring to see the lumDer indus
try nicely through the depression.
Present indications for the resump-
tion OF work IN the Potlatch camps
in the spring appear to be favor
able. Camp fark is already run
ming with all the aspects of a full
tiedged logging camp. Lower
freight rates to the east will have
the effect Of speeding up lumber
shipments and thus enable the mills
to clean out their immense surplus
stocks. No reason can be cited at
this time for undue delay IN the
slow swing tu better times. You
can't hurry such an operation as
that. The change must come grad
ualIy and of its own accord. There
has already been a big change for
the better.

The ridges IN southern and ca:
