Ganadian Plywood Preiudice

American plywood is being unreasonably discriminated against by Canadian building standards, according to American Plywood Association president William T. Robison.

Addressing Congress, Robison predicted "devastating" losses of at least $125 million in revenue to the U.S. plywood industry if Canadian

Ganada Blocking U.S. PlYwood

The U.S. plywood industrY has opposed Canada's offer to allow a panel to review a Canadian agency's ruling denying the use of C-D grade plywood.

The American Plywood Association considers the problem not to be the agency's finding that C-D grade plywood does not meet rigorous Canadian plywood standards, but rather the standards themselves. The plywood is aPProved throughout the U.S., JaPan, Germany, Sweden, Holland, Denmark and the U.K., but Canada has deemed it unacceptable for housing construction.

producers receive open access to American markets while 800/o of U.S. plywood is "unjustifiablY denied entry" to Canada.

"lf U.S. plywood producers have access to the Canadian market, it would relieve supply pressure in the United States and discourage Canadian companies from over-producing and dumping into our market," he

The APA sees the standard as "obviously discriminatory" and a violation of the Fair Trade Agreement.

Al Bell Memorial Endowed

A Forest History SocietY fellowship in memory of the late Alfred D. Bell, Jr. has been established by his family.

Bell, who died on November 21, 1985, served the FHS as a board member, vice president and President of its Endowment Fund, in addition to his manY Years as a lumberman. He also was the Publisher and co-owner of The Merchant Mag-' azine from 1963 to 1974.

The Merchant Magazine claimed.

Problems created by the unfair nature of the Fair Trade Agreement with regards to plywood "can be solved if the administration or Congress has the will to insist that the Canadian market be open to U'S. plywood before the tariffs are eliminated," Robison said.

Young people honored with a Bell endowment will be eligible for various assignments, such as assisting with the Journal of Forest History, Orell Research Program, Huss Archives and Weyerhaeuser Library'
