President Carter Seeks Timber Harvest Increase

President Carter's call for increased timber harvesting as a way to control inflation has been endorsed by a spokesnran for the nation's plywood industry.

In an anti-inflation speeclt befbre the Arnerican Society ol Newsplper Editors the President allnounced that he has requested a report within 30 days on the best ways to expand timber harvests from public and orivate lands.

"We're very encouraged that the President has acknowledsed that increased federal tinrber liarvest levels can bring down the cost of both wood products and housing," said Bronson J. Lewis, exec. v.p., American Plywood Association.

'Besides controlling inflation, expanding timber harvest levels will spur employment, help reduce the nation's balance of payments and put more timber sa.le revenue into the Federal Treasury," Lewis continued.

"Our only concern," he said, "is that the President appears to be relying totally on federal agencies and his own economic advisors, some who have opposed increasing harvest levels in the past, to formulate a plan to make more timber available.

"We hope the Administration will also seek input from the group most affected by his proposal: the wood products industry."'

L-P Plans 10 Dist. Centers

Louisiana-Pacific Corp. plans to broaden its marketing reach by opening l0 wholesale building materials distribution centers in California, the Intermountain region and the South by the end of 1978, according to Harry A. Merlo, chairman and president.

Ground already has been broken north of Houston, Texas, for the company's second center. Its first was opened last year in Cloverdale, Ca.

The Houston center, slated to open in 60 days, will feature same day delivery of L-P's softwood lumber, plywood, particleboard and related building materials, said Merlo.

''Our distribution centers will provide customers the convenience of ordering from a single and wellsituated location the wide variety of wood products which we manufacture in nearby plants and mills." Merlo added.

L-P is a major tbrest products manufacturer with 80 olants and mills in l5 states.
