Why Don't We Have LIlInber
 FOR HOME BUILDING?

f. The manufacturers of lumber have been provided with hidden premium export lumber The OPA has made 1t more profitable to produce lumber for export foreign countries than to produce lumber for home construction.
 These are merely examples from the lumber field which indicate the type of OPA action that is block ing the production of home building materials in many fields
 The fact remains that homes cannot be built by any industry or Government agency without materials
 Homes cannot be built without umber-whether that home be wood, frame, brick concrete, stone
 The lumber and building material dealers, and the contractors of the nation build all the homes needed IF they have the materials But the flow of materials must be unblocked Only increased production of build ing materials can solve the so-called housing problem and the unreastc pricing policy of OPA is the biggest present block to increased prOductiOnl r'

The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-03-08

There are. plenty of trees, plenty of lumber mills, but very little lumber for Home Build- ing. WHY?
 Here are the simple facts behind the lumber short age-these facts stopping Home Building: l. Over 50q6 of our lumber once cut by small mills Thousands of these mills put out of business during the war by 0PA ceiling prices. OPA still clings to wartime policies and these mills are still out of business.
 g. OPA's blind "hold the line policies plus lack of enforcement, have led to the development of huge Black Market in lumber. "Black Market lumber is lumber that costs the people money than they would pay if lumber flowing to them through the normal channels of distribution-the retail lumber dealer
 B. Wartime ceiling prices made it profitable for the lumber manufacturer to cut sizes of lumber suitable for uses but not suitable for home construction As OPA continues this nnreastie policy, manufac- turers continue to cut lumber sizes which un. suitable for home construction. In some prem ium prices granted by 0PA encouraged production of lumber not usable for Home Building. Proper peacetime adjustments have not yet been made to encourage production of home construction lumber such as flooring, ceiling, siding, millwork plywood -all essential items in home construction This sit- uatiOn affects all lumber production.

CARGO PILFERAGE NUT ANALYzED AT
 MERCHANTS MEET

At a Board of Directors meeting last night held at its offices in the Shattuck Building, the Juneau Merchants Association heard At torney General Ralph J. Rivers give his opinion of the pilferage problem which has long been a costly headache not only to local merchants but the merchants in the entire Territory of Alaska.
 Rivers gave a keen analysis of the entire problem and it's various complications. He seemed to think that goodly portion of freight was probably diverted in Seattle and never was loaded on the boats at all; probably by black market ring.
 Rivers was very enthusiastic about results that the Merchants Association could bring about con- corning pilferage, damaged goods, and the entire shipping problem in general.
 George Sundborg, newly-appoint- ed Manager of the Alaska Develop ment Board, pledged his coopera- ton and analysed the shipping problem similarly to Rivers. He promised to oo what he could also in relieving the critical housing material shortage. Sometime this week Sundborg will leave for Se- attle and other points in the States md will take up various problems discussed at the meeting with pro- per authorities in Seattle and else where
 According to Bruce Marlowe, Exc cutive Secretary of the Merchants Association, the fight for clarifica- ton of pilferage and other related shipping problems has just begun
 We intend vigorously to seek for some solution until we have suc- ceeded. We invite all Merchants to join with us to participate and cooperate in this matter. It's only by whole hearted cooperation on every ones part that we can ac- complish what we want to do in this and other problems confront ing us" he said
