The -demand was voiced in a pamphlet, “America’s Log-Jam and How to Break It,” written by Ellery j Foster, research director of the In ternational Woodworkers of Amer-; ica, CIO. Specifically, the pamphlet asked for passage of a bill introduced in j the last session of * Congress by Representative Hock, Democrat, of I Michigan which would provide technical assistance to lumber growers to improve production and marketing methods, money grants: for conservation, selective logging < and reforestation, and forest in-! surance through an amendment to the Federal Crop Insurance Act. It attributed the “dwindling tim ber supply” to wasteful methods due to the fact that the bulk of the forest products business is in the hands of “thousands of small inde pendent producers”, most of whom “haven’t the money for good modern equipment, hiring specialists, join-; ing associations or sending out lob ! byists.” 2,064 Army Personnel Due in New York Today By the Associated Press One troopship, the General Stur gis from Bremerhaven, is due to ar rive at New York today with 2,064 troops.
