This clears the deck for a bigger pack for 1940, Timber people from Alaska show where war demand has resulted in| the sale abroad “of all the airplane spruce we can produce in Alaska.” Must Be Other Uses It is pointed out, however, that it} is not practicable to cut, the timber! just for the airplane spruce that can | be obtained from it, as the percent- age of Alaska spruce converted into airplane construction has been, up| to this time, only about 2 per cent ' | | | | | |of the entire timber business.
