The lumber business in the Islands is in an unorganized con- 

 dition. Under present circumstances the requirements for lumber 

 from the United States are limited to the imperative construc- 

 tion taking place, since by Executive order the Civil Govern- 

 ment is restricted to the use of native lumber, except for 

 concrete construction forms or molds. The government authori- 

 ties both civil and military have, in the past, consumed the greater 

 part of the lumber imported from the United States. 



Increased efficiency in logging methods and the manufacture 

 of native woods is also an important factor in limiting the use 

 of foreign woods. 



The report states that it may be logically assumed that the im- 

 port of lumber from the United States will decrease.
