Philippine Government Increases

Hardwood Lumbermen Will Meet Mahogany Export Quota to Fifty Per Cent At Santa Barbara Biltmore

On June 2nd President Elpidio Quirino, of the philippine Government, announced that effective June 4th the quota of exportable Philippine lumber would be increased from 20 to 50 per cent. It should be understood that this means each mill is allor,ved to export up to 50 per cent of its production, and not that 50 per cent of the total amount of Philippine production could be exported. However this very large increase announcement was received with high satisfaction by all those interested in the importation and sale of Philippine Mahogany in this country, and much increased activity is noticeable in the Philippine hardwood market.

Figures are not attainable on the amount of Philippine lumber now being manufactured, or the amount that may norv come to the United States. Only one large Philippine mill is now in operation, that of the Insular Lumber Company, which is manufacturing about.three to three and one half million feet of lumber a month. All other mills are comparatively small in size, since the Japs destroyed or dismantled them all during their occupancy.
