The Hardwood Manufacturers' Institute meeting,
held in Memphis early this year, adopted a resolution
reaffirming the Institute's program for lumber sim-
plification and standardization and urging the central
committee to bring their work to a conclusion as soon
as possible.
The National Committee on Wood Utilization at
its first meeting for the purpose of outlining its pro-
gram, had more than thirty projects submitted for the
various subcommittees and the National Committee
selected a half dozen projects to add new members
to the committee representing such industries as were
vitally interested in the problems involved. The com-
mittee's membership today consists of 135 members.
Twenty-two publications are now in course of
printing, comprising thirty of the standards promul-
gated by the committee, to be issued as part of the
"Elimination of Waste" series of publications of the
Department of Commerce.
The National Committee on Wood Utilization of
the Department of Commerce in making public the
results of a study of New England wood products
industries says: "The lumber industry in the North-
eastern States, once of param.ount importance, has
largely been superseded by woodworking industries."
It is the spruce of New England which is the most
valuable pulp material, and many pulp factories are
reforesting their cut over lands. New England has
been singularly spared from forest fires due to the
moist climate and the relatively dense population.
