Paper Is Critical.

The article discusses the impending paper shortage in 1944. While the combined requirements of the U.S., Canada and England are expected to exceed by seven percent the 1943 figures, a shortage in production by 27 percent, is anticipated. A Combined Pulp & Paper Committee of the three countries was formed to investigate and report on paper. The paper crisis is attributed to the shortage of woods labor for felling trees, cutting to length, stacking of corkwood, and hauling to market.
