PULP & PAPER
DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRY IN CANADA. OTTAWA. The phenomenal development of Canada’s pulp and paper industry during the present century, placing it at the head of world producers of newsprint paper and largest exporter of this commodity, has been due primarily to a fortunate combination of readily accessible resources of wood of superior quality and an abundance of well distributed water-power, as well as dependable supplies of fresh water. It is expected that an even greater demand will be received for Canadian newsprint owing to disrupted channels of world trade. Paper mills in the province of New Brunswick, on Canada’s eastern seaboard, are “reported to be getting orders now from countries they have had no orders from in years,” according to the Hon. F. W. Pirie, New Brunswick Minister of Lands and Mines. Newsprint production in Canada in the first eight months of the year totalled 1,805,669 tons as compared with 1,6882,720 tons in the corresponding period of 1938.
