The bulk of the commercial tim- ber is located within the Tongass and Chugach National Forests in the coastal region, which are es- timated to contain 84,760,000,000 board feet of saw timber. Under United States Forest Service man- agement, this timber will be han- dled as a continuing resource, cu‘- ting being regulated to assume a permanent supply. In addition to the coast forests, there are some 50,000,000 acres of interior woodland type forests of great potential value tolocal industry, agriculture, and mining, although not classed as important commercial forests Mr. Markwardt's report has been published as Technical Bulletin No. “The Distribution and Me- chanical Properties of Alaskan' Woods.” Copies may be obtained by writing to the Unted States De- partment of Agriculture, Washing- ton, D.
