Lumber Needs
Are Steadily
Rising

Demands of the armed services
for lumber are steadily rising with
the increased pace of the war and
the invasion reality, Director O.
C. Lamport of the War Manpower
Commission in Montana has advised
A. c. Hanson, manager of the Kali
ispell office of the WINGS United
States employment service.
Coupled with the increase in de-
mand," Mr.. Lamport says, lis the
increasingly difficulty of maintain
ing manpower supplies to keep pro-
duction up to normal. This is true
over the entire numbering area OF
the nation. as well as in Montana S
forests
Frequent questions as to what war
uses are made of lumber have
brought this statement from Mr..
Lamport.
Experience has shown that lum-
Der is the most suitable material
for boxing food, clothing, and other
supplies for shipment to our fight
ing forces abroad, for the boxing OF
ammunition and equipment repair
parts, for Grating heavy implements
of war and for packing heavy car
go, such as tanks, trucks and
trailers.
I'VE are informed by Paul v. Nc
Mutt, chairman of the War ManpoW-
er Commission, that every time a
member of the armed forces leaves
for overseas. it takes 800 feet OF
lumber to box and crate his initial
supplies, and SO feet each month to
Keep him supplied.
This is for just one soldiers
personal equipment. A Liberty ship
requires ten carloads, 100000 feet
of lumber, merely to fasten its car
go in the hold.
AS the army advances more lum-
Der is needed for reconstruction.
Bombardment and destruction strips
territorial gains. AT Naples it re-
CURED SO million feet, 1000 car
loads, of lumber to restore dock
facilities. Shipyard uses are equal
ly extensive. A carrier or battleship
has 250,000 to 10000 feet of deck
ing. Interior of all ships require
huge totals of lumber. A floating
drydock such as is in general use
during this war, calls for 100000
feet Of lumber.
Marvellous accomplishments are
recorded for the lumber industry
in meeting this demand. Actual in
crease in production is shown for
the first quarter of 1914 over 1913.
Yet there were $500 fewer work
ers reported. This shortage will be
10000 greater by July l.
Montana's need for labor in its
logging and numbering sections can
be measured in hundreds instead
OF thousands, according to Mr.. Lam
port, but it is a hard shortage to
overcome Men needed in the woods
are the same men who are needed
in the army. Physical requirements
are necessarily high, women can be
used in the saWmills, but not in
woods work. Acute labor problems
such as the lumber area presents
have caused the adoption Of the
most stringent voluntary labor and
employment controls ever instituted
in this country.
