Grave Shortage of Local Timbers Forces Postwar Imports
From Our Special Representative Chad Enna March 19 reports Commonwealth government inquiries into securing overseas timber for housing as local supplies dwindle. Housing Commission expected a 300,000 home program, with 50,000 homes planned in year one, but postwar manpower reallocations and wartime demands delayed construction. Canada and United States view lumber as the No 1 war material shortage, with Canadian output unlikely to meet demand, prolonging timber constraints for immediate and postwar housing schemes.
