and the Markets at North America

Outstanding among the various species
of trees in continental Portugal is Quercus
Suber L, commonly known as the cork tree;
these trees cover an area of 100000 hec-
tareS, making Portugal the leading cork
producing country. Cork production Of
Portugal represents slightly more than half
of world production, amounting to ap-
proximately 10000 metric tons per year.
The cork tree thrives everywhere in the
country, though the distribution is not uni
form; it is to be found principally in the
TOTO Valley, Alentajo and Algarva, with
Evora, Santarem, Setubal, Portalagre and
Beja the leading cork-producing regions.
In these regions with their favorable
agronomic-climatic conditions grow the
big "montados" whose yield, when pro-
ceSSed in the most advanced manner,
makes for cork which fully deserves to be
considered of first quality.
Portugal occupies an outstanding posi-
ton in the world market, as regards both
quality and quantity of the cork produced,
and every effort is being made to maintain
that position because Of its Importance to
the nations economy.
The Government is taking effective
measures aimed at the protectlon OF the
trees; it collaborates with the plantations
owners, it induces them to employ the most
prudent methods of exploitation, to work
toward improvement of the species, toward
regeneration, natural and by artificial
means; it is interesting to note that even
in ancient times the Government was bent
upon protecting the industry these efforts
having their beginning during the thir-
teenth century; destruction of and damage
to cork trees was severely punished.
Today there are laws aimed at protect
ing the valuable tree and at safeguarding
the quality of its product. A special de-
partment has been established to provide
that protection and to stimulate the grow
ing Of the cork-producing trees; plantation
owners are represented in the department,
increased production and improved quail
ity are the objectives. The department
superviSeS large-scale seeding operations,
checks the sanitary conditions prevailing
at individual plantations and advises on

pressed, its consistency does not change,
and these properties make it an important
product for the bottling industry.
Granulated cork, with varying granule
Sizes is used as an insulator for fruit pack
ages and for the protection of fragile goods.
Pulverized cork, together with granu-
lated cork, is used in the manufacture OF
agglomerateS and of linoleum.
AgglomerateS are obtained through the
agglutination of granulated cork by means
of the resin from the cork tree or by the
addition of special gums.

changing consistency, the chemical char

critics of agglomerated cork make it an I'M
portant industrial product in the manu-
facture of motor gaskets and sealing agents
for water pipes.
Agglomerated cork is also used in the
manufacture of wall and floor coverings,
either in the natural color of cork or IN
artificial colorS; these coverings are dur
able, they are popular because OF their high
Insulating properties; the floor coverings
are soft under foot.

cork agglomerates as insulating agents

chimes operating at speeds of more than

In addition to the wide variety of uses
set forth above, cork is also used in the
manufacture of carriages, of wine making
machinery, of sporting goods of all kinds.
At the present, Portuguese cork is being
exported to hundred different markets in
countries all over the world, with a value
of $40,000,000.
The United States are traditionally the
leading importers of Portuguese cork in its
natural state; they also buy considerable
amounts of Portuguese made cork
products.
Cork exports to the United States of
America amounted to $7,000000. This
figure may be expected to be exceeded, with
increased appreciation in that country for
the advantages of cork and the resultant
increase in the use of the product.

ter concerned with problems relating to
anatomy, physiology and geneticS of the
species. Every nine years, the minimum
interval established by Portuguese law, dur
ing the months of June, July and August,
the bark is cut from the trees; that is the
cork which, by virtue of its properties, has
variety of uses
1t is light and yet strong, it is capable of
being compressed, it is resistant to hu-
midity and prevents seepage of liquids and
gases. 1t is not damaged by exposure to
light or by vibration, it is poor conductor
of heat and has high friction coefficient.
These properties are due to the peculiar
cellular structure, cork having myriadS of
five-walled empty cells, which are minute
in size and provide great elasticity; the sub
stanceiS indeed an ideal product for large
variety of uses.
Cork is the principal raw material for
an industry employing 10000 people and
900 factories, producing wide variety of
goods.
Cork is produced in three basic forms:
a. natural cork, plainly shaped;
b. granulated cork
c. agglomerated cork.
The manufacture of goods from natural
cork is the most important.
Natural cork is used for the manufac-
ture of fishermen's buoyS, of safety belts,
it substitutes for leather in ladies' shoes
for use on the beach, special stocking soles
are made from it which add to the comfort
of the shoe, there are cigar holders made of
cork, cork is used for certain parts of fish
ing rods, the hand band for example, mat
treSseS and floats are stuffed with cork;
these are merely examples of the many
purposes for which natural cork is being
used.
But, no matter how wide the variety of
uses for cork, it still is the most effective
means for sealing bottles, the many syn
thetic products Notwithstanding, which
have come into use; after many years of
use for that specific purpose, it continues
to be the one fully dependable product.

Danish Industry Exports
Not Replacing Farm Loss

The difficulties in achieving
a satisfactory level Of employ
ment has many causes. and 1t
will not be denied that some Of
them can be ascribed. to factors
which are Danish in origin. But
with a simplification permis-
sible in an account as brief as
this, it is surely right to single
out the stagnation of agricul-
tural exports as a main reason.
If this had not occurred agri-
cultural production would have
expanded more rapidly. the
foreign exchange position ow-
ing to the more favorable bal
ance Of payments would have
been less strained and the pos
sibilities Of promoting indus
trialization by means Of lower
interest rates, easier credit IA
cilities and a more liberal taxa
ton policy would have been
better.
Denmark has now liberalized
81 per cent Of her trade, and
following the introduction Of
partial convertibility intends to
increase the liberation Of dollar
imports with the object Of plac-
ing them on an equal footing
with imports from OEEC coun-
tries.
At the moment the Danish
economic situation is better
than the account just given
might suggest. Owing to a COM
bination of economic policy
and fall in the prices Of raw
materials that has affected the
state Of the market. the bal
ance Of payments has taken q
favorable turn and a moderate
but by Danish standards fairly
good reserve has been built up.
BY means Of tax relief for in
vestment-but not for the gen.
eral taXpayer-a reduction in
the interest rate, and easier
credit facilities, the Danish
economy seems about to ex-
perience measure of expan-
sion with a moderate growth
in production and employment.

The important position which
Denmark occupies in agricul-
ture does not mean that a large
number Of persons are engaged
in the industry.
Less than % per cent Of the
population work on the land,
a figure lower than in many
other European countries. But
this % per cent produces about
20 per cent Of the national
product, and agriculture. in ad-
diiton to supplying domestic re-
uuirements, provides nearly so
per cent of the national exports
expressed in gross earnings.
Comparable figures show that
agriculture in Norway and Swe-
den employs about l8 per cent,
and in West Germany about %
per cent, of the population. but
contributes only TO per cent
of the national product, while
the net contribution of airicul-
ture to the foreign exchange
earnings of these countries is
scarcely positive.
In Denmark 1t is. 1t is the
industry's competitive ability
and great Importance as an
export industry which make

balance -of-payments problem
created by the standstill in the
expansion Of agricultural ex-
ports. Moreover, for a long time
the international price trend
has been adverse to Denmark.
The rise in prices of butter,
bacon, meat. eggs and cheese
was nothing like the rise in the
prices of industrial raw ma
terials and fuel.
1t is only in the last year or
so that the position has tended
to improve owing to the fall
in the prices of raw materials,
though at the same time an i'm
portant Danish export COM
modify such as butter has in
certain periods suffered a de-
cline which can be compared
to the disastrous trends in the
l930s.
A major objective of Danish
economic policy is to provide
new jobs not only correspond
ing to the substantial growth
of the working population over
the coming years, but also for
the manpower reserves which
have become available from the
agricultural sector.
The move towards mechani-
zation on the farms and the
general increase in productivity
which is the basis of the
competitive position Of Danish
agriculture, combined with stag
mating export sales has ac-
celerated the exodus Of man.
power from the agricultural
sector.
Difficulties Many
Since 1947, the farming in.

drop the speed limit on a Sec
ton of Spring Hill road in
Fairfax County TO 10 miles an
hour after Mclean area resi-
dents complained Of numerous
accidents caused by a tricky
curve.
Richard C. Brown, Culpeper

current speed limit for the road
is 80 miles an hour.
The speed limit will be low
cred to 10 miles an hour on a
double curve on a hilltop be-
tween Old Dominion drive and

He added that the traffic
count for the road is 300 cars
daily. a comparatively small
number. Police reported seven
accidents on Spring Hill road
since the first Of the year.
