North- west's chief industry, providing lobs for °thousands 4f persons. Realization of the new opportuni- ties in ,lumber processing is wide- spread and not confined to one or- ganization„ or area, In Longview, Wash., the giant Weyerhaeuser Tim- ber Company maintains a laboratory busy finding new uses for Lumber by- products. There, too, the Weyerhaeus- er firm maintains a special bark -ut- ilization plant, which makes a wide variety of pfoduets from Douglas fir bark. Weyerhaeuser recently announced plans for building a sulphate plant at Springfield, Ore., for the manufacture of .container board. Another. Spring- field• operation was that of the Wil- lamette Valley Wood Chemical Com- pany, which made industrial alcohol from wood waste, until its temporary closure not long ago. In Corvallis, Ore., one •plant con- verts slab wood into insulating board for refrigerators. In Portland, small pieces of wood, once thrown away, are glued into curved forms, and laminated into huge beams and tim- bers. All over the Northwest, small firms are utilizing products once wasted to make furniture and ply- wood. Typical of the Northwest's post- war preoccupation with utilization of its wood waste is the enterprise of the Weyerhaeuser Company in Long- view. There' under the trained eye of the Technical Director, Clark C. Her- itage, the big coinpany, which annu- ally burned millions of board feet of waste material, now recovers Prac- tically all of the waste, converting it into many modern products. Douglas Sr bark alone, which once was all waste, now emerges in five 'different forms of "silvacop," each designated by a number. And, says Mr. Heritage, "we feel that we have just touched the out- side edge of the full utilization pos- sibilities in Douglas fir bark. We ex- pect that more products will be de- veloped as we proceed with our work. 'The barks of other species of trees may also 'provide a source of raw materials for other products." Comprising 12 per .cent of the log volume by weikht, bark long has pos- ed a utilization problem for the . lum- ber industry. For many years mills have shuttled bark toe the burner. Now Weyethaeuser no longer uses its burneeand other plants, large and small, are following suit. But baric is not the only waste pro- duct used. Small ends of lumber, once wasted, now are utilized to the' last sliver. For instance, the Long - Bell Company plant at Longview routes t4immed ends of two-inch stock through shaping and cutting process- es which produce end -grain flooring. In this plant is a new glue machine Which takes pieces of any size, forms a continuous ribbon of solid pieces of lumber, and joins the separate pieces tightly to form one long plate of lumber. This glued product then is cut into desired shapes, all having strength and adhesion equal to the original, lumber. • The labor required for this new processing adds three to four man days of . work for each 1,000 feet of lumber cut, an important contribu- tion to the Pacific Northwest employ- ment picture, Keys to the new program are the hydraulic barker, a device only re - DEPENDABLE AT ALL Hoene, in all kinds of weather, she's at her post.

It indicates how very complex our modern life has become and how ser- iously our welfare is affected by. forc- es that sometimes appear remote. There is much speculation on the sig- nificance 'of last week's municipal elections in Great Britain and most detached observers agree that it is a severe set -back to Socialism and what Socialists and Communists' euphemistically refer to as "planned economy." No one seriously expects a .new election at this time. It is the gen- eral impression that the British Labor Government will make every effort to stay in office hoping for something that will •halt -.the decline incits econ- omy. It is recognized that the grow- ing sentiment against .Socialism in England has adepressing effect on C.C.F. supporters in Canada and C..C.F. readers are striving desperate- ly to "play down" the importance of the municipal elections. The C.C.F. party in' Canada belongs to and ac- tively promotes a union of Empire Socialist parties. It isnoted here that the "Gallup" poll of Britain con- firms the heavy loss of support for the Labour Government and a consid- erable gain for the Conservative party. Reports from a number of places indicate a searching self-analysis- by leaders and supporters of the Pro- gressive Conservative' party since their latest stunning defeat in York- Sunbuy by-election. Daily °nd Week- ly newspapers supporting t party are almost unanimous in 1 )ling for "a positive and distinctive policy" for the party. They also demand a radi- cal change in the party leaders "strat- egy and tactics." The daily papers are guarded in their„ suggestions as to what the ,new policy should be, but all agree that it should be definite. At least one weekly paper, which gives unwaver- ing support to the party, has a clear cut suggestion. It is that the P.C. party propose and advocate a com- monwealth customs union, a policy which it claims would "be in full ac- cord with Conservative tradition and) would evoke enthusiasm within the party." This will be in contrast to the Liberal government's policy of maintaining a balance between its re- lations with the British Common- wealth, the United States and other notions of the world. John Diefenbaker, prominent party leader, denies the need for new pol- icies, feels that the party's need is for a publicity campaign to inform the public what the party stands for. Observers here are waiting for the opening session of parliament to see what effect the criticisms have on the party leadership which has been under fire from within its own ranks. Drastic Change in Policy Observers here who have been reading newspaper accounts of So- cialist leader Coldwell's tour of West- ern Canada see a radical change in his policy: with respect to war. In a Vancouver ipterview he placed him- self definitely on the side of "pre- paredness" against war. This is in ssril=dug `contrast to previous C.C.F. policy. It is noted with' interest there that at Prince Rupert, B.C., Mr. Coldwell denied that he had ever been offered the Liberal • lea",dei•ship thus leavin,g many of his supporters out in a limb. This statement finally settles a num- ber of arguments and even bets in the Capital, said. . he had. been "approached" n- the subject of coali- tion, but did of say by whom the approach was ade. A Ca dian Economy There is much speculation' among Clean• !sands It's sheer self-preservation to keep ,the'hands and pea nails glean, declare public health authorities, because dis- ease can ,spread rapidly from the germs whih may collect there. Crean hands are advocated for health as well as. for social accept- ability. Medical officers warn that bacteria inevitably collects. around the fingers and tate palm, and particu- larly under tile nails, no matter how carefully we handle things with which .they come in contact. Thorough washing of hands before eating is particularly important. ' Air Clothing Youngsters who, toss "their: discard- ed wearing apparel about carelessly should• be taught that the result isn't just untidiness, it's dangerous! Due to the perspiration and body odor which is bound to be absorbed) by clothing, it requires careful airing before being worn again. So, unless. the sailed articles are going into the wash or to the dry-cleaners. at once, they should be 'placed on a hanger, preferably in the open .air. Protect Eyes The familiarity which breeds con- tempt accounts for many eye acci- dents, particularly in workshops em- ploying processes which produce fly- ing particles. Health authorities is- sue a special warning to workers en- gaged on operations with obvious eye hazards. Safety* goggles' are a `must' in such procedures. Of all the industrial eye accidents observers here on the government's plans for maintaining our Canadian economy. In the face of some move- ment in favor of a customs union with Great Britain and the sugges- tion of a- prominent weekly financial paper that we are heading for a cus- toms union with United States, Lib- eral opinion in the Capital seems to favor a strictly Canadian economy. That this will not be a policy of iso- lation but of co-operation was shown by the announcement of the trade treaties made at Geneva. Interest in the government's plans for a strictly Canadian economy is heightened by the reports of a new government department presided over by Rt. Hon. C. D. Howe. By people of all parties Mr. Howe's name is al- ways linked with achievgment. An integrated prograto to encourage and promote further development of our resources and expanding the degree of domestic processing can greatly expand our exports to the. United States and keep our high employment level. ftl$lFitPr"7g •et 9$ per tnat bell pxeY-onte4.) ky thei ihao xifpbQV^, gaggles, eye ehials' eke Danger To 4;0 Certain organic eolventul 'iced in' factories on special prpees§es• p'r'esent a Hazard• to �vitl'kere, unless they air predate toe need for precg,lltians.. 11blic health aatlt:brlties say that some such sio.Ivents are harmful iR inhaled for •protraeted periods., and if long in contact' with the akin.

Minister of National Revenue cently put into use whereby logs are stripped of their bark by streams of water under 1,500 pounds' pressure, and such laboratories as that operat- ed under the guidance of Weyerhaecs- er's Mr. Heritage. The Weyerhaeuser plant alone. has 43 persons in the lab- oratory seeking new uses for the wood products. But .arm in arm with thisutiliza- tion,of-waste program goes the new conservation program in logging. Three log Harvest operations dimin- lab loss. The first—prelogging=finds a special crew thinning out the small timber in advance of the primary logging operation about six months later. The third operation is the re - logging where crews armed with portable saw equipment cut up the chunks and pieces of timber unfit for sawmill use. In addition, loggers test thinning in second -growth' stands, re- moving smaller trees in early stages so that more healthy trees will at- tain greater growth'.' The big logging firms. have also resumed tree plant- ing on a large scale. Weyerhaeuser has already set 'out half a million trees' ih its Mount St. Helens tree farm. It expects to increase this ac- tivity to a million trees a year. But the forward steps have not been confined to the large mills. Since 1940; More than 1,000 new mills have sprung up in Western Oregon and Washington, They owe their exist- ence to new and improved methods of sawing which Utilize and minimizes waste. An example of an efficient small operation'is that at Packwood, Walsh.,, where a newly -formed three -partner organization has launched a- 25,000 - feet -per day operation. Location of the mill was carefully chosen with a view to maintenance of a permanent operation on a 25,000-feet;per-day basis. The Packwood plant uses • every scrap of the log.

LEARNING REFRIGERATION ONTARIO'S productive capacity is the measure. -of her future prosperity.,, To assure this province a prominent place in domestic and foreign trade markets, skilled bands are needed. Increased -production of refrigeration units will mean a greater need for skilled servicing. Veterans, hiisically trained in schools and ON THE JOB, will -fill this need as they are absorbed into industry. For those' who have mastered skilled occupations, higher wages," job security and better working con- ditions are within easier reach. Through plans sponsored by the Department of Veterans' Affairs and other agencies, hundreds of young workers are being trained for refrigera. tion servicing. Graduates of training schools are ready now to take their places in industry. Craftsmen pf the future, they will have a share in Ontario's progress—an important part to play in her industrial de- velopment. THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) 4.0 REFRIGERATION D. C.
