Some of the boys were sitting around
the bunkhouse telling stories one night.
One old timer had told them some par-

and the boys, to see how far he would go,
called for another. “Well,” said the old
timer, “It was like this, I was going out
to the machine on Sunday morning to

PLANS

In addition the Council would be quall-
fled to deal instantaneously with man-
agement-labor disputes and similar prob-
lems as they arise. Through it we could
do away with the delays that occur
when conciliators unacquainted with
lumbering must pause to consider the
industry aspects before they can deal
with the problems at hand.

The Industry Council program would:
1) Stabilize managementlabor rela~
tions.

(2) Add labor's immense knowledge
to the administration in solving of war
production problems.

.3) Speed up the forest output so es-
sential now for the defeat of the Axis
aggressors, and
