The D. J. Rohrer Lumber Company of Clintonville, Wis., is 

 delivering about 20,000 feet of red oak logs from the Pella Swamp 

 area to New London, Wis., for the American Plywood Corporation. 

 The logs are being hauled on trailers drawn by Four Wheel Drive 

 trucks, made in Clintonville. The loads average 8 tons. 



The Algoma Panel Company of Algoma, Wis., has reduced its 

 wood v^ork this winter to a minimum, and its log input w^ill be far 

 below normal. The concern is one of the largest of its kind in the 

 North. It has considerable quantities of logs on hand and in the 

 woods and this supply probably will be sufficient for prospective 

 needs of the mill for the time being.
