Han sen, Deputy Director of tb^ WPB Pulp and Paper Division, advised the News, paper Pulpwood committee this week. .It is too early yet to predict whether this trend will hold and gain momen tum. Mr. Hanson said, but it is en couraging aa: a response to-'the cur rent newspaper industry victory pulp wood campaign created to induce farmers and small woodland owners to engage in cutting pulpwood.» — The most noticeable upswing was J_Qjhe--South.- buL-fiiicouraging, trends “These f^ts lAtould not lead to any, kind of opUmism," Mf. 'Hansen said. “At best they represent merely a change In trend tn puliiWOOd itrodod- tion which was steadily downward tor the first six months of this The July and August reversal <inT^t be compared to the conquests of Tunisia and Sicily. We^ve still got a whole war to win,'’ were indicated In other sections of the pulpwood producing areas which included the Northeast, Appalachian and Lake States, and the Northwest regions. Mr. Hansen called attentiofi .to a repoi^ that more than 1000 communi ties '^in the 27 pulpwood producing states have organized local pulpwood committees and that in some towns busihess and professional men a<Uualt ly have gone into the woods and cut pulpwood' in their spare time. , Despite the favorable Reports in pulpwood receipts and inventories for July and August, Mr. Hansen warned that production must be stepped up consistently during the remainder of 7943 if the slump during the first six niQiltha. -ifi ,t0 be. overcome. ^ About Yonr Anti* Freeze Hiis Winter He also statdd that receipts of pulp, wood at U. 8. pulp mills showed a slight upswing in July, which trend continued in August. As a result, some mills were able to replenish - Motorists who will use again this winter the antl-freeze aoluUon of last winter were told today by A. W. Boh- len, ODT district motor transport manager, how to offset loss of strength and to 'counteract acid or rust producing dements. “Permanent type anti-freezes can be treated with an inhibitor-and re used,” he said. “Under the necessity of war conservation, permanent type anti.freezes ‘ (ethylene glydol type) wefe used by many car owners for a second season during the 1942.43 win ter. The same nee'esaity for reuse will occur during the comini^ winter. The reuse* ol^ the antl-freexe last win ter'was the^hrst Bm* that tin^ prae-, “Acid end mat *inhlhltors can bs tlce has been done sztenalr^ by the car owner.* This.: second .derglpi^ etore the original Mn-coiroslre and partially depleted Inventories. “Pdlp- wood Production ia still running far behind 1942, however,’* he concluded. ed some mi^N epollng system trOur hies which are easily correctable so that the entl-treeze can be safel^y re used as long as it has deAable anti freeze qnaJities. '“The i)ermanent type anti-freezes which have been on the mdrket have contained a reuse preventive which was expendable. In addition, -it has been found that these permanent type anti.freezes may become slightly add with continued 'use and under these circumstances may have a corrosive action on Certain parts Qt..^he cooling system. . '“An acid condition can be determin ed -by- testing the solution with blue litmus paper. If the solution turns the blue litmus paper distinctly pink or red, it is an indication that the solution has become add. safely added to the solntloa 40 re- mst inhibiting properties. These in hibitors do not increase the knti freeze strength but only counteract any possible acid development-jmd^re- new the rust inhibiting propertied -“If the antifreeze Solution strength is weak due (p loss of active* matMial, it is necessary that additional ethy lene glycol be added to the cooling system. The antl-freoze strength should always be checked at the be ginning of reuse with a standan tester,". iKershaw Cotuity Timber Operators Will Receive The.

YOU can help prevent disastrous forest fires! 'CARELESSNESS starts more than 200,000. —fttfest iifcs in the Uatted Stateg evgry-year»- • ” « Carelessness destroys millions upon millions of feet of timber, novv a critical war material. It cripples watersheds that supply hydro* electric power to war industries.' And the fighting of forest fires diverts precious labor from faaories and farms. ~ Many persons who start these fires toss away matches and cigarettes that, aren’t dead out. Many others Burn to clear plow land or log ging slash or grass or debris and—the fires they started break away into searing, roaring flames that destroy timber, forage, wildlife, and beauty that mayjiever be replaced. Each of these persons forgot—for a moment. And each thoughtless act was as destructive ,as if it bad been the act of a saboteur.' YOU can help prevent disastrous forest fires by efSserviog the four simple rules.illus- trated here when you’re in^forest areas. And by seeing that others observe them. ATTENTION, BRUSH BURNERS I More than 6 million acres are burned, yearly, because of YOUR careless use of fire in clearing plow land and burning logging and other slash and debris. Do your part this ytar. Remember: * - 1. Don’t burn without a permit from a ranger or fire warden. _ 2. Don’t burn (during unusually hot, dry, or ' windy weather. . 3. Scrape a trail, or "plow around” areas to be burned. REMEMBER THESE RULES: Crush out your smoko Droum your campfirs— thon bury It Broak your bumod match IF YOU BURN SLASH 4.
