Abstract

Early in 1969 a survey of the veneer industry in the Northeast was made to determine veneer-log receipts for calendar year 1968, by species and states of origin. The survey revealed the following changes in the past 5 years: A drop in the number of container veneer plants, offset by an increase in the number of other types of veneer plants. A 15-percent increase in veneer log production. A 22-percent increase in receipt of veneer logs and bolts at the plants. Exports of veneer logs from the Northeast continued to overbalance imports.
