South Could Maintain
Paper-Making Industry
The Opportunity and The Chemists
Are Here Now

Forest reserves sufficient to main
tain big paper industry exist in
the South, according to DR.. Arthur
D. Little of Cambridge, Mass, past
president of the American Chemical
Society.
Commenting on the statement Pfc
pared by Col. w. G. Greeley, chief of
the United States forestry service, for
the guidance of the member OF gan
izatons of the Federated American
Engineering societies, Mr.. Little as
serts the necessity of research, declar-
ing that huge quantities of cordwood
now wasted could be made to yield by
products with profit, says the Wash
ington Star.
Col. Greeley, warning tia; tim
Der famine was at hand, saiQ that "a
tremendous opportunity is offered the
engineer, the chemist, and the wood
technician in adapting the forest
grown material now available within
reasonable cost limits, particularly the
second-growth material which must be
utilized more and more largely as the
time goes on to the needs of our in
dustries.'
Mr. Little said that Col Greeley
was we'll within the facts in stat
ing that the problems involved in the
better utilization of forest grown ma
terial offer "a tremendous opportuni-
ty" to the chemist, but he added it
must be pointed out that there are
problems which the chemist cannot
hope to solve without sustained and
generous financial support.
Research is necessarily expansive,
and where its purpose is the develop
ment of new industrial processes, pro-
fessional skill cannot go far without
courageous backing, continued Mr.
Little. The opportunity and the chem
lists are here-the money must come
| from men OF vision who recognize the
|
wealth.
"The proposed and perhaps impen-
ding embargo OF Canada on pulpWood
invests with new and added interest
our great reserves of Alaskan spruce
which, if developed wisely, should en-
able us to supply the world with news
print paper for many years to come.
OF more immediate interest, however
are the supplies of gum woods, tupelo
and pine available in our Southern
states in amounts sufficient to support
an extensive and diversified paper in.
dustry
Another source OF wealth as yet
practically untouched exists in the
millions of acres of cut-over yellow
pine lands in the South From the
stumps which now cucumber these
vast areas and hinder agricultural de-
velopment, will be derived our future
stores of rosin and turpentine and
many synthetic by-products of these
basic raw materials.
The permanency of a paper indus
try, when once established in the south
can be insured by reforestation with
rapidly growing trees like loblolIy
pine, and even more securely in the
gulf states by planting of bamboo,
which is incomparably more produc
tive than any wood and which yields
fiber ideal for paper-making.
