Quinquereme lrom Nineveh!

If there is one thing more than another calculated to add to the gaiety of nations in these hard times. it is the whimsicality of the softwood market. Everyone, as Jimmy Durante is wont to say, everyone is trying to get into the act. The Finns sell wood to the Argentine, the Brazilians sell wood to us. Moreover, the Dutch, not to be outdone, sell Swedish wood to us, too. No doubt the Brazilians rvili go one better and sell Parana pine to the Swedes, who will sell it to the French N{aritime pine shippers, who will sell it to us just in time to have their export licences cancelled. But that may not happen for a few weeks yet.
