By WALL STREET JOURNAL

NEW YORK. Jan. 1O.-News that
the French and Belgian forces We're
entering the Ruhr was received with
equanimity by the stock market to-
day. SterHngs advance Of a half
cent in the early dealings recorded
British indifference to proceedings on
the continent. So there was no oc-
casion for alarm in American markets
and stocks devoted their attention TO
their own internal position and tech
meal status Of the whole market
Some selling in the first fifteen min
.es represented continuance OF re
'yttion in the progress at the pre-
vious close but the main body OF
stocks was steady at around Tues
davis final prices. Strength was
shown by a few specialties OF the
tyne Of May Department Stores, which
reached a new high at 701a.
First hour developments on the ex-
change were uninteresting. Profes-
sionaI operators offered Asphalt down
IN a new low at ASS, off points
from Tuesdays high. banking on I'M
certainty regarding the preferred divi-
dend to bring out stock for covering
purposes. But inside houses in Phila-
deIphIa issued assurances that pay
mant would be authorized and selling
vas checked before II a. N.
Many conservative commission
houses continue to advise purchases

Forestry Depletion Hits Home
Building, u. S. Report Shows
Retail Price of Lumber Held Higher
Than, Cost of Transportation VAR
rants. Is announced Here.

Timber is being destroyed faster
than it is being replaced; quality is
depreciating; smaller and poorer
houses are being built, and prices
are becoming higher, says Col. Will
liam B. Greeley. chief of the United
States bureau of forestry, in a state
ment concerning national conse-
quences of timber depletion issued
for the guidance of the twenty-eight
member organizations of the Fed
Grated Engineering Societies.
Originally the United States con-
tained five trillion board feet of
stumpage; now only 1900 billion feet
OF virgin timber and 500 billion feet
of culled and second growth remain.
Timber is being cut or destroyed at
the rate of sixty billion board feet a
year. Soft wood is being cut eight
times as fast as it is being replaced.
Seventy-five per cent OF all timber
cut is not being replaced.
Removal of the timber supply from
points of consumption has created
transportation charges. that many
demands for lumber cannot be salts
fed. Twenty eight states produce
less lumber than they consume. Only
nve states in 1920 produced more
lumber than they could use. In the
lumber haul between sawmill and
consumer has increased "a per cent.
Retail Price Higher.
Rail charges on western lumber are
s11.5O per thousand feet to the middle
west and $50 to New York Retail
prices rise much higher than the in
crease in transportation charges JUS
tfy. The average consumer pays
twice as much for ordinary lumber as
ne pald twelve years ago. From 1870
TO 1921 the average price of retail
lumber advanced three and one-half
times as rapidly as the index price of
all commodities. In 1870 the per cap
1ta consumption was 345 board feet A.:

Scarcity and high price of good
lumber has led to increased use of
poorer quality. There is probably not
a single wood fabricathg industry

not today use wood distinctly inferior
