FRONTISPIECE 
The ominously steep downward slant of these curves threatens New York 
with the loss of her commanding position in the secondary wood-using 
industries. Only vigorous and prompt action can provide the billion 
odd feet of lumber per year which the industries need and which the 
State is capable of producing. See page 26.
