Lumber famine warned by Wilson in San Francisco
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson warned in San Francisco last Saturday that years of wasteful methods and short sighted policy have brought the United States to the eve of a lumber famine. He said the federal government has set aside 150 million acres of forest reserves but the peril can only be averted by state laws and better management by forest landholders. He cited incalculable waste and annual losses from forest fires as factors driving higher lumber costs.
