Exceeds 1939 Level. This year's production probably will exceed that of 1939 by 55 per ! cent, the survey said, and many types of paper are approaching the production level which will meet consumer needs. | "With additional pulp, paper and board capacity coming into opera I tion in future months, the time appears to be fast approaching t when most all domestic require ments will be met and wholesalers’ and converters’ inventories replen ished,’’ the report went on. “This may take several more months unless total economic activ ity should recede materially. Even then there may remain a substan tial foreign demand which could be met by domestic mills if export in terest is aroused.” Estimated total dollar shipments of pulp, papier, paper board and paper products in the first half of this year were $2,733,000,000. This indicates a gain in dollar sales of about 31 per cent in terms of pre- ! vailing prices over 1946 and 172 per cent over 1939. Real Income Gain Unlikely. Since the price rise has approxi mately matched the Increase in na tional purchasing power in terms of present dollars, the department said, the industry has probably enjoyed “little or no increase in ‘real in come.' ” Imports of wood pulp amounted to 222,874 tons in July, a gain of 10.000 tons over the same month last year, the department reported. Canada was the principal sup plier, providing 123,719 tons, an in crease of more than 20 per cent over her shipments a year ago. Sweden supplied 66,034 tons, a drop from last year, and Finland 28,222 tons, an increase. Imports from Norway last month were 1.850 tons. That country shipped no pulp in July of last year. San Francisco Bay May Be 'Big E' Berth SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 21 (NANA).—The battle-scarred air craft carrier, Enterprise, heroine of many a successful sea and air en gagement in the Pacific, may be berthed permanently in San Fran cisco Bay as a memorial to World War II veterans if plans of civic groups now active in preserving the ship here materialize. The Navy, through the 12th Naval District office, has offered the “gal loping ghost” to the city, contingent on assumption by the cicy of the estimated maintenance cost of $120, 000 annually,. Sentiment now is being gauged to determine if San Franciscans are willing to assume this expense. A committee also has been appointed. Participant in every major naval battle in the Pacific, excepting the Coral Sea engagement., the Enter prise is credited with sinking more enemy tonnage than any other American ship of its class. In addi tion, an uncounted number of Japa nese planes were destroyed by its planes and antiaircraft. The flattop was only 150 nautical miles out of Pearl Harbor when the Japs struck there December 7, 1941. The Enterprise, first in war, also was first in peace. After cessation of hostilities, the “Big E“ served to transport returning troops from the European theater to demobilization centers in the United States. Inactivated, the ship is now in the Atlantic Reserve Fleet in the New York Navv Yard --..... __ i Mountain of Hot Slag Buries Man Alive By th. Associated Press WASHINGTON, Pa., Aug. 21.— Guernie Eli Rose, 51, of Waynes burg R. D. 4 was buried alive with a steam shovel in a slide of tons of smouldering waste at Red Dog Mine. Jack Ozenbaugh, 24, a fellow work man, had a hair-breadth escape from a similar death when he saw the mountain of hot slag start to move. Scrambling desperately through the ashes, Mr. Ozenbaugh stumbled to safety and was quickly hospitalized for painful burns and shock. Firemen dug for several hours before they recovered the body of Mr. Rose. ffliss America wvoani Pure cocoanut fashioned into small rolls. The rolls are made in three colors—pink, white and chocolate.
