Defense Demands for Plywood Will Probably Require at Least 35Vo ol Production in Months Ahead

Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 2l-Defense den-rands for plyrvood rvill probably require at ieast 35 per cer-rt of procluction during the mor-rths ahead, sources in \\tashington, D. C., told west coast panel makers today . providing curreni budg-ets are approved and that plyrvood purchasing planned for the last half of the year all is dor-re during the last three months of 1951.

This was announced here by O. Harry Schrader, Jr., managing director of Douglas Fir Plyrvood Association, after receiving a National Production Authority forecast oI plyrvood wants. Three developments at the nation,s capital have compounded the demands for plyr,vood rvhich r.r'ill l;e exerted by the militarv and by defense-supporting industries : l. I)efense needs for plywood are piline up because military buying agencies temporarily are out of money as (.ongress has delayed passage of the new appropriations bill. As a result, buying for defense u'ill be heavy during the last three months of the year.

2. 'Ihe Secretary of Defense has issued a directive to military speciff ing agencies that u'ood and plywood be included as an alternate for steel to conser\re metal.

3. Another defense directive requires the r-nilitary to make elficient use of available plyn.ood by tailoring specifications closcly to end-use requirements. Specifically, this ruling directs that greatest possible use be made of both indoor and outdoor (rvaterproof) plyrvoc.,d and the variorrs cornmercial grades and thicknesses n,ithin the trr.o types. It is arr cffort to rrore fully use the itlyltood face-grades that are in best supply by speciff ing the lo.n.est possible apl)earance grade that can be usecl in an1, application.

These developments mean, Schrader points out, that rlurirrg the closing months of this 1-ear, defer.rse needs for plyu'oorl apltarentlv u.ill exceed considerably the 30 per ccnt r:rtio that already is bcirrg set aside under an earlier. Nl'A ruling.

I [e spoke for tl.re 68-factory Dciuglas fir plyu,ood indus1r1' of Washington, Oregon and California .n.hich produces tt'o thircls of the nation's *,ood ltanel material. They are turlring out par-rels at the record rate of al>out 2.7 billion fcet zr year. Plvrvood is used by the Army, Navy and Air Cor'1ts for barracks, boats, packaging, concrete forms, parachute drops and hundreds of other applications.
