EXPORT OF LOGS TO DEPEND
 ON LOCAL MARKETS

JUNEAU - Continuance after June 30 of permission to ship from the Territory any sawlogs out from the National Forest which cannot be sold for manufacture here, will depend on the outlook for the sale of logs locally be- tween that date and the end of this calendar year, stated Regional Forester Frank Heintzleman Ere quent check-ups of the milling sit- uation will be made during that period and exports will be denied if and when the local market can use the log output The general policy of the Forest Service is to require that material out from the National Forests be manufactured here in order to help the local economy. Log exports are allowed only in emergencies such as the unexpected closing down of a saw mill with a loss of the local mar ket and the possibility of teredo damage to log rafts in salt water

FOREST SERVICE WARNS
 OF FIRE DANGER

The dry weather prevailing dur ing the last few weeks along the southern coast of Alaska has creat- ed serious fire hazard in the woods Knox Marshall. Division Supervisor of the T. s. Forest Ser vice said this week. He warned ex- irene care-in the use of fire is urged. Marshall pointed out that the setting on fire of National Pores. timber, brush or grass through camp fires and other means. or the careless use of cig-
 rette. cigar match pipe heel, fire cracker and other ignited sub stance is prohibited by law Heavy fines and imprisonment are provid- ed upon conviction and the re- sponsible party must also pay all damage and suppression costs.
 Light rains offer no insurance against the spread of fire said Marshall. It takes a heavy down pour to penetrate the forest cover and even then a spark may smould- CT in the deep duff for days before bursting into famles
 The discharging of fireworks where it may start a fire is par tfcularly dangerous, Marshall add ed. The Forest Service suggests, he said. that the beaches provide a safe place for this activity.
