 Portland, Ore, Sept 22-Uncle Sam has one war vital natural resource in which there is no botteneck timber. And your satisfaction in that fact may be doubled by the knowledge that Japan is woefuy short of timber.
 For the 10 or 12 years preceding the Japanese attack China Japan the largest importer of timber from the United States, taking one-sixth of our total exports Since 1925 Japan took more than 400O 900 board feet of Douglas fir alone. Now, not only is she cut off from U S. and other United Nations of supply, but the reckless cutting in Japan during the past few years has resulted In her 1940 domestic production dropping 13 per cent below that of 1889.
 JAP NAVY SAPS TIMBER STOCK
 How hard-pressed Japan is for timber is ndi- cated by the fact that she has been forced so to deplete her insufficient forests to build up her navy in recent years that in section sawlog produc tion reduced 80 per cent between 1892 and 1939
 Reliable confirmation of this picture comes from Department of Commerce report Japanese im- ports, which states:
 Shortage of lumber in Japan is rapidly devel- oping into serious situation" The report de- clares Japan 100000 board feet short of her needs long ago 1e39 despite efforts to increase her own production.
 So much for Jaapn. Americas picture is bright with the fact that vast commercial forest 461 100000 acres-is growing nearly three times as

URGES PROTEIN FOODS TO TAKE
 PLACE OF MEAT

Minneapolis, Minn., Sept 22-(UP) Meat rationing, which adrninistra- tion leaders are believed to be plan- ming within the next few months. offers no threat to the American public's health if the right substi- tutes are used in the diet, according l to food study released today by the Northwestern National Life In- Surance Go.
 "ConAmonest and therefore most dangerous error is to try to replace meats by eating more starches and sweets because they satisfy hunger and cost but 8 small fraction as much as meat" the report said.
 Both adults and children can re- main plump on such diet, but in a few months become ailing, 'pepleSs' and an easy prey for many diseases" !" Urging the proper amount of pro- tein foods to replace meat in the diet, the report lists cheeses, made either from whole milk or skim milk; whole milk; dark or enriched bread and cooked whole cereal as substitutes for meat.
 Offers Simple Rules The American housewife can as- sure healthful yet economical pro- tein replacementS on meatless days, the report said, by observing these simple rules:
 Over half of an adults protein requirements can be secured from the daily consumption of one pint of milk, half pound of dark or enriched bread, and one cup of cooked whole cereal-either cracked wheat, oatmeal, brown rice, or bar ley.
 The remaining protein, equal in amount to that furnished by a ih- eral serving of lean meat can be secured from any two of such dish es as half-cup of cottage cheese: one cup cooked beans-navy, lima or kidney; two eggs; a two-ounce slice of cheese; four tablespoons of peanut butter; a small serving of fish, or a cup of custard or bread pudding
 "Vitamin and mineral needs of the body are then completed by nb-, eral daily serving of fresh yellow or green vegetables with fruit or fruit juice also"
 Teen-age Needs Milk
 The report pointed out that teen- age youths need the childhood ra- ton of a quart of milk day, in ad- dition to adult proportions of other fods.
 The study suggested that bakers can help ease the meat shortage by making part-soybean flour bread, cakes and cookies available.
 The housewife who knows her food values will thicken gravies, soups and stews with soy flour or soy grits, with sharp improvement of meat substitute values" the re- port said.
 Soy is one of the few vegetable proteins that approximate the value of meat proteins."
 The report urged the American housewife to get better acquainted with the values of soy flour and grits.
 "The United States is now second only to Manchukuo as a producer of soy beans, and American families should get acquainted with this val uable 'naturahzed citizen and learn how to use it." the report said.

 Thanks to careful protection of our forest areas and progressive conservation practices by the govern ment and forest products industries, timber Is crop whichever at the present emergency rate of demands growing nearly fast as it is being con- stunned.
 Because of abundant reserves, Uncle Sam had merely to throw the into high gear to turn out board feet of lumber in l94 in addition to huge amounts of pulpwood, plywood piling and fuel This production peak will be passed this year and without creating botleneck seriously depict ing the supply.
 NAVY HAS 12 ALL-WOOD BOAT TYPES
 The significance of our superiority in timber is great in war where naval forces play such vital role Did you know that it takes 300000 board feet of lumber to build "a-Steer battleship? Also all wood boats play major role in the protection given our harbors coastlines, Panama Canal and Alaskan outposts.
 There are 12 types of boats in this auxiliary naval branch including torpedo boats, Coast Guard cutters minesweepers trawlers patrol boats mine layers and motorsaers Great quantities of lumber indispen sable to building or repairing fleet, well per- forming thousand other military services So Uncl1 Sam feel pretty good when he surveys his virtually inexhaustibe forest reserve covering of the nation.

BORCNAES TRIAL STILL IN DOUBT.
Special Prosecutor Acorn to Confer With Counsel
 of Accused

The date of arraigning Enoci. Borgnaes on charges of conspiring to defraud the City of Waterbury, has not yet been set and will not be determined until Hugh M. AL corn, ST., special prosecutor in the case, and Atty. Carl Mears, of New Haven, defense counsel, hold con- ference. The name of Borgnaes has been entered on the September criminal docket of superior court, but there is no indication at present that the case will be disposed of this month as anticipated.
 Borgnaes disappeared in 1888 just before he was to be summoned to appear before the conspiracy grand jury which indicted 26 other per- sons. He was missing until last June 30, despite an extensive search, when he was apprehended finally as he arrived from Denmark on a refugee Swedish liner. He is ac- cused of juggling the city books while serving as auditor here. Un- able to raise $50,000 bonds, he has been held in New Haven county jail since July l.
