rlUMBER IS KEPT
OUT OF EAST
WALTER DOTY TELLS ROTA-
RIANS ABOUT LUMBER
SITUATION
Walter Doty, of the Chehalis Mil:
Company, was the speaker at the Ro-
tary club luncheon Wednesday noon
and gave a most interesting talk on
the lumber situation generally and
locally. His talk was emphasized by
maps showing tbe timbered and log-
ged areas of Washington and Oregon,
and the distribution of northwest
lumber products in the middle west
and east. Mr .Doty said mch of the
newspaper talk about lumbermen fix-
ing prices is absurb, because there
are 30,000 lumbermen in the coun-
try, and competition is too keen for
there ever to be price fixing. He
said the government findings are not
quie fair, because the investigators
based their findings on eastern mills
and markets where copditions are
not general, and also they picked
isolated cases. Mr. Doty said that
lumber prices are apparently at the
bet(orb, and an upward trend is due
to start.
