The goals and strate- gies outlined by the Science Council of Cana- da in a recent report entitled "Canada's Threatened Forest" are in line with those ex- pounded by Ontario's forest industry, says the president of the Ontario Forest Industries Asso- ciation. Speaking to a lunch- eon meeting of the Port Arthur Rotary Club here today, Kenneth D. Greaves of Toronto said the Council's rationale for the increase in the productive potential of the forest is supported by the estimate that world demand for forest products will double ov- er the next 40 years. "With increased le- vels of forest protection and more intensive for- est management, the size of the economic sec- tor could be doubled to $44-billion," he stated. He added that there could be parallel in- creases in the net posi- tive trade balance to $24-billion and net Looking back what was happening in the News, May 19, 1971 The forest industry's Beaver Club Award was presented to Steve Brend, welder at the Kimberly-Clark Mill at Terrace Bay.
