Wood Must Be Perfect. Yet under conditions of modern warfare, when an aviator has to "loop the loop" or plunge, or ascend sharply in manoeuvring to bring down or es- ' cape from an enemy, the machine has to meet and withstand these unusual tests. Wood for airplane manufacture must he 100 per cont. perfect. In other •nticles there may be a slight margin of imperfection, and this is recogniz- ed in lumber grading rules. In air- planes, however, the safety of aviator and army demands entire freedofn from flaws. Even with Sitka spruce, the favorite wood for airplane construction, there is difficulty in obtaining the very high- est grades. The United States forest service estimates that only 18 per cent., approximately, is available for plane construction. A member of the Curtiss firm is reported to have said that only 187 board feet, on an aver- age, goes into planes from each 1,000 board feet. Tho quantity of wood needed for each plane varies, of course. with the size of the machine; few of the pre- sent-day types contain less than 250 feet, and it may take 2.000 feet in the rough to furnish this amount. One lumberman is making —r:=a sure of getting only the straightest of -- straight -grained stuff by splitting it out of the log instead of sawing 11. He gots quality at the expense of con- siderable waste in riving out choice white oak cooperage stock or hickory for spokes. But the resultant product is sure to have straightness of grain.

Black walnut has been used in place of ma- hogany, because this wood does not splinter when hit by a projectile. Maple, birch and cherry have ,found some place in propeller maurfacture.
