The foregoing personnel were selected and functioned while away from the United States as representatives of the Forest Products Subcommittee Joint Intelligence Objectives Agency (J10A), originally Technical Ind! Oriel Intelligence Committee (TIIo), in Washington, composed of the following: Mr. George W. Trayer, Steering ;embar, Forest Service, U, S. Department of Agriculture Mr. U.

Cancell, War Production Board In selecting and approving targets for investigation, the London (later European) Representative and his Deputies worked closely with British CIOS forest products representatives as follows: Mr. E. L. Hill, Ministry of Supply Mr. J. W. Golding, Ministry of Supply Wise Jane Hollingsworth, Ministry of Supply Until (;_ft,li was officially replaced by FIAT on July 13, 1945, all targets were jointly approved by the proper U. S. and U. K. representatives and both before and After July 13, 1945, co ?i s of all JIOA reports as listed herein have been furnished to Mr. E. L. Hill, It is understood that all reports of U. K. investigators in the forest products field will be available to JIOA. The European re7resentative of the Forest Products Subcommittee arrived in London on March 15, 1945, but it was not until early in June that it became possible to despatch United States field investigators to targets in Germany. This delay was due to a variety of causes, the more important of which were: As of March 15, 1945, no forest products (1) target had been approved jointly (as required) by D. 5. and U. K, representatives; the U. K. -2- r representatives at that time and mostly thereafter were so overburdened with other duties that they were able to give only a small portion of .their time to the selection and recommendation of targets. None of the recommended targets were deemed of sufficient war importance to justify high enough priorities for inclusion in the TICS Blank List, which for many weeks were the only targets to which investigators were permitted to be despatched. (2) For many weeks despatch of investigators required evaluation reports by CAFT assessors who were primarily restricted to evaluating targets on (3) the Black. List. The foregoing are recorded as explanatory facts and not as criticisms; such procedure was doubtless necessary in view of the acute problems in Germany, which confronted the military authorities who tiad to provide the transportation for and billeting and protection of the field technical investigators. During the period from early June to November 1, 1945, the U. S. Forest Products Investigators, who served in this work for varying periods, collectively reported on over 300 companies, institutions, etc., (some wrecked) and interviewed nearly 300 individuals throughout Germany and Austria except.. in. those areas occupied by the Russians, where practically no targets were covered. The targets investigated covered modified and improved wood, glues and plywood, engineering and wood structure, pulp and paper, wood preservation and seasoning, alcohol and yeast, forestry and sawmill equipment, and miscellaneous targets (See Appendix A). . SUPSdARY Contrary to the somewhat popular impression in United States circles, the investigators' conclusions are broadly as follows: (1) The forest stands in the 1937 area of Germany were not seriously damaged, the reported 50 percent overcutting during the war years having been largely carried out under well controlled sustained yield cutting practices. -3, (2) During the war period wood was not extensively used as a raw material for the development of new and improved products essential to the war. It appears that the enthusiastic promotional plans promulgated prior to the war by Dr. Von Monroy, at that time in charge of the '.'flood Section of the Goering Four Year Plan, were not carried out; he lost control of this section in 1938 - 1939 and others took charge who did not believe in his plans, chiefly for fundamental economic reasons. As an example, his prewar program for the construction of about 24 large wood sugar plants was not carried out; during the war there were only two Bergius process plants and three Schaller process plants in Germany and all of these were built or under construction prior to the war. (3) Broadly, German research, technological and industrial developments with forest products were, with but few exceptions, considerably behind those in the United States. Of the new or improved developments in Germany which may prove to be of real significance to United States wood industries and to research in forest products, the following are the most significant: (1) Improved technology for the rapid continuous fermentation of alcohol or protein yeast for food from wood sugar in sulfite pulp liquor and also from wood sugar factories. (2) The development of a neutral resin adhesive (Polystal) reputed of high toughness that sets at a comparatively low temperature, (3) The development of techniques for the production of bleached beech sulfite pulp of high alpha cellulose content and its use for cellulose nitrate. (4) The application of prehydrolysis to pine pulp chips followed by kraft pulping and the production of a pulp used 100 percent for cigarette paper. -3a- f p.3 and 3a repeated.

The foregoing are recorded as explanatory facts and not as criticisms; such procedure was doubtless neeessw ary in view of the acute problems in Germany which confront. ed the military authorities who had to provide the trans., portation for and billeting and protection of the field technical investigators. During the period from early June to November 1, 1945, the U.S. Forest Products Investigators, who served in this work for varying periods, collectively covered 293 companies, institutions, etc., and interviewed numerous individuals throughout Germany except in those areas occupied by the Russians, where practically no targets were covered. The targets investigated covered modified and improved wood, glues and plywood, engineering and wood structure, pulp and paper, wood preservation and seasoning, alcohol and yeast, forestry and sawmill equipment, and miscellaneous targets (See Appendix A).

The foregoing together with the other most interesting and significant findings are described in the following pages or this report. abet Improved and Modified Wood In the field of modified and improved wood, the investigators found that the products manufactured in Germany were not superior to those made in the United States and that the technique used in Germany for manufacturing improved wood is well known in the United States. The most significant information, gained from these investigations, however, was the extent to which In improved wood was manufactured and used in industry. improved the wood in been made limited Germany has general to wood that has been de *reified by the application of It has not been the practice to imheat and pressure. the properties of wood by impregnating with synprove thetic resins as has been done in the United States. Deneified wood generally known in Germany as (pressed wood) has been made from both lam" Pressholz" solid wood. wood and Beech, because of its availinated properties, the is chief species used for ability and this material. Compressed laminated panels, banded with Togo film or a liquid phenolic resin, comprise the bulk of the improved wood produced. Such panels were extensively used in Germany before and during the war, being produced in numerous plywood and veneer mills, although a few plants had been constructed solely for its production. This material is chiefly used for making forming molds in which sheet metal is stamped to shape, and has had wide application in Germany compared to the limited use given it in America. The usual method of manufacturing improved wood in Germany is to density the wood with heat and pressure and only to use resins as a bonding medium when panels Products made in this manner have inare laminated. creased density, but are not stabilized against dimensional changes due to changes in moisture content, except in so far as the rate of moisture absorption is reduced. The recovery of compression, however, is reduced according to the degree of heating, but the art as practiced in Germany does not impart the degree of stability that is accomplished by resin impregnation. This material, nevertheless, has been used successfully and no serious 4 difficulties due to changing moisture conditions have been experienced. The seasonal changes of moisture content of wood in Germany are not nearly so great as Hence, material that is pracin the United States. tically unaffected by the range in moisture conditions in Germany may not be so suitable for use under the greater extremes of moisture conditions that prevail in the United States, Presshols has not been considered a substitute for metal, but as a material superior to metal in many qualities. Because of its successful use in Germany, it is possible that this material, or the more stable product made in America, could be successfully employed in the United States on a far greater scale than has been done in the past, Preseholz compressed from solid wood (Lignostone), has been widely used in the textile industry for shuttles and picker sticks and to a lesser degree for bearing; bushings, mallets, door handles, and other articles, From the general information obtained at the textile mills and from numerous technical men and manufacturing companies throughout western Germany, it is the opinion of the investigators that the advantages of improved wood for shuttles and picker sticks depend on the type of machinery in which it is used, and on the kind of product being made. The greatest advantage is in its use in textile machines where the life of the normal wood products is relatively short due to mechanical wear. Unsatisfactory results obtained from compressed wood shuttles because of its increased density have in many cases been eliminated by decreasing the thickness of the shuttle wall, which is possible because of the greater strength per unit volume of this material. The reduction in thickness of the walls of the shuttle not only reduces its weight but also increases the capacity of the shuttle for holding additional amounts of yarn or thread. While there has been some difference of opinion in the German textile industry on the economical application of this material, it is conceded that the material is generally superior co normal wood products. Due to increase in textiles needed by armed there is a reported shortage of dogwood and persimmon in the United States for manufacturing shuttles, and a shortage of hickory for picker sticks, Hence, this development may have application in America. forces, s A specific use for compressed molded veneer, which to our knowledge has not been used in the United States, and for which some interesting claims have been made, is the application of compressed molded veneer ae retainers for ball and roller bearings. Tests made in Germany on this material indicate that for high speed bearings it is decidedly superior to the present metal retainers. If the claims made for this material are sub stantiated, it should find considerable application in the United States. A few other processes of improving wood properties by chemical and physical means have been developed, but are of minor importance and have little, if any, application in America. kANUFAOTTU: OF PLYWOOD AND EELATi D ERQDUCTB Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing Prior to the war, the German plywood industry depended almost entirely upon log imports of such excellent veneer species as Douglas fir from North America and okoume from Africa. Consequently, the industry was severely handicapped at the outbreak of war when these supplies were out off. Domestic beech, a relatively inferior species, constituted practically the supply of wood used for veneer during the war. entire Supplies of other materials, such as adhesives, were also stopped or greatly reduced. In general the investigators found that relatively little technical progress has been made and plywood industry of Germany during the in the veneer war; that the plant equipment was of conventional pre -war design; and that the quality of the products was in general inferior to that of American products. The practice of handling lathe to the clipper on spools and green veneer from the tinuous sheet of veneer under the of feeding the conclipper knife by means of simple feed rollers as observed in Germany, will be of interest to the smaller ,veneer plants in America. Although this process is not new in Germany or America, it deserves to receive more attention from operators in the United States because of its efficiency. New features of the namely, the inclusion of a dustSlempelkamp veneer drier air circulation system and the and moisture trap in the lateral arrangement the return air ducts to conserve heat, should Oro of be considered. 6 A novel device oonsisting of a small knife on the lathe to scarf veneer preparatory directly used wide sheets has definite applioation into to gluing wider than can be produced on availveneers wherever required. are able lathes In the field of glues, the development of a foam process of spreading urea resin glue was the most important development for the plywood manufacturer durThe absence of casein or soya bean glue ing the war. brought about the development of this process by which it is said a very thin uniform glue spread can be obtained. For waterproof panels Togo film remained the most important glue throughout the war, although there was much discussion about new liquid resin glues which had their primary application in secondary gluing and fabricating work, The investigators were impressed: with the ineffioient utilization of manpower resources and the uneconomical methods of handling equipment, Hot pressing cycles were longer than necessary, just to be on the safe side; press loading and unloading times were unusually long. Fabrication of Glued -Wood Products In the fabrication of glued -wood products it was also found that no great progress had been made in Germany, when judged according to American standards. Ho: ever, in the aircraft field German experience had roughly paralleled the experience in America, but at a much slower rate and on a much reduced scale. Regarding this experience, Dr. luoh, director of wood research at the German aircraft research laboratory, stated that research on glues for use with wood in aircraft had not started until the fall of 1942 in his institution. Reoorts from various souroes testified to the strong opposition of a "metal- minded"w aircraft group who opposed the introduction of wood in their field, Not until 1943 did the German air ministry seriously consider the use of wood for aircraft, and then oaly because increased production demands made it necessary to consider other materials. Late in 1943 and during 1944 many plywood manufacturing plants began to make plywood of aircraft quality, The first important wood airplane, from the research standpoint, was the Tooke-141f TA-164, whit& was ready for production in March of 1944. .Apparently the opposition against wood was still going strong for the model was cancelled before coming into continuous production, although all the personnel consulted thought it had great possibilities as a fighter plane. Late in 1944 the results of Various research undertakings finally began to take form. A manta. for wood aircraft fabrication was in the process of being printed and an organization for pooling of experiences of various manufacturers in the field of wood-fabrication was organized. These developments, however, dame too late to be of any importance in Germany,. war effort. {, In the field of glues for use in aircraft two important developments were observed: the use of cold setting phenolic resin glues and the discovery of s new resin glue, Polystal, According to one report, ool setting phenolic glues have a harmful effect on the wood because of excessive acidity; this point will have to be checked before the value of these glues can be established. Polystal on the other hand, to have desirable properties as a glue but is appears difficult to handle; since it is new in the field, it can no doubt be improved in many ways; it has possibilities of becoming a leading glue. Polystal is a mixture of Desmaphen and Desmadur (poly- ieocynates) in an ethyl acetate solution. Urea is the hardener or catalyst. This resin was used during the latter part of the war as an assembly adhesive. The reputed properties of (1) setting at temperatures as low as 320T in a comparatively short time, (2) being neutral to chemical reaction, and (3) possessing a great degree of toughness are highly desirable. In the field of metal-to-wood gluing, the methods in use in Germany appeared to offer noth ng of interest to the American technologist. On the other hand, it may well be that the "Polystal t :pe will sirable advantages in the making offer certain highly deof metal -taped plywood particularly in not requiring elevated temperatures for curing. This is one of the greatest metal-to-wood adhesives now in use in disadvantages of the the United States. It apparently possesses the other characteristics necessary, namely, specific adhesion for metal, neutral solution;high water resistance, and toughness. The process of producing molded plywood between wood molds with the aid of inflatable rubber pillows and a tubes and with electrical resistance heating methods, which was used in Germany in place of the American autoclave bag -molding method, is useful but perks inferior to the American method because of lesser control of temperature and pressure. In the gluing of timbers and ties, no new process has been developed in Germany but much work has been done in the use of resistance heating. Electrical heat ing elements consisting of thin metal foils, wire mesh, and wire straw:is have been used in gluing small areas. High frequency has been used in the gluing of aircraft spars, The glued railroad tie consisting of pressed wood bearing plates glued to the tie to eliminate the use of a steel bearing plate has, in the opinion of the investigators many merits. Its application in Germany seems especially appropriate because of the possibility of saving timber; but it is hoped that it will also receive consideration in America, where more severe weather conditions and the use of heavier rolling stook will subject it to a real test, Research The research work at the technical schools and the plants manufacturing plywood and ¡plywood adhesives had been hampered considerably d.urin t:=' latter years of the, war due to bombing, In the field of adhesives it had been necessary to put new tyres into production without having made any significant tests to establish their worthiness. The work at technical institutions, such as Deutschen Versuahsanexalt fur Luftfahrt in Berlin and Institua fur Bauforsohung and ?aterielprufungen des Bauwesens an der Technischen Hochschule at Stuttgart, had been confined to problems of immediate netional interest. The available reports gave no indication of any particularly significant information. at . Wood Boats Two types of woos torpedo boats were built in Germany during the cart (1) the E -boat and (2) the Hydro -boat. The E -boat was sturdily built and larger (113 foot length) than the American PT boat. Its oonstruction consisted of the application of a lumber planked hull over an aluminum alloy framework. The use of solid timbers for keel an at. ete -pent frames, and lumber planking involved no new methods and was conventional in all respects. Plywood was used for interior fixtures. , - 9 The Hydro -boat was much smaller (42 feet long) and lighter in construction throughout. Typioal sawedframe construction was employed with a lumber -planked Plywood gusset plates were used to Join the sepe r«e hull. members of the sawed frames and plywood was also used fit. decking and interior fixtures. No laminated oonstruotion was employed in either type of boat, and Kaurit cold -setting urea- formaldehyde resin was used for the limited amount of gluing done in connection with the application of gussets and scarf Jointing of stringers in the Hydro -boat. Both tyres were built by conventional methods and the greatest change resulting from war conditions was the necessary substitution of native timber spool's for the more commonly used imported boat building woods. Wood Preservation The German wood preservation and wood seasoning industries were found to be mediocre. Their principles are relatively sound yet their processing is operated with doubtful control and their plants are of oomparatively old designs. No new impregnating or drying methods have been developed during the past years. During the war years the wood treating plants were in a very disconcerted condition. The German government prohibited the use of coal -tar creosote for wood treating in 1940; on the other hand, the earlier teohnical developments with tonic-salt preservatives were largely valueless because many of the compounds, chrome for instance, were not available. Research on the part of German treating or seasoning industry has been entirely looking for the past eight years. The government sponsored and technical high schools did not contributeinstitutions much because of man -power shortage; no new impregnating nor seasoning methods have been developed during the same period There or adoptions of wood that were as no evidence o fgnew use. drying methods. . ENGIN ;EKING AND WOOD 8TRUCTUR4B The general consensus, bpsed on the targets investigated and personnel interviewed, indioatesthat research and developments in the utilization of wound and 10 timber in structures have not been pursued in the same intensive manner as was research direotly concerned with warfare during the past 10 years. In many instances it has been found that no change in design methods have been made, nor has any work been done *Lich could provide a basis for change, sinos 1936. It is apparent, therefore, that contrary to previously expressed ideas, the German scientific progress in structural utilization of wood is not in advance of such developments in the United States and is in most instances decidedly inferior. Housing Developments in the use of wood or plywood for housing of either the conventional or prefabricated type were generally disregarded because of the high oost of the materials involved. Two instanoes of actual planning for construction of such dwellings were found. In one of these, a low oost hutment developed at Stuttgart, the basic design utilizes a wood framework for the individual panels which, in turn, provide the support for two sawdust -gypsum mortar layers separated by a dead air space. The unit is quite small, only 26 meters of floor area, and is to sell for 2600 marks exclusive of foundation. Simple wood trusses at the end of the house with rafters at intermediate points provided the support for a roof of lightweight concrete strips or tiles. Joints between panels are made by means of nailing strips on both sides of the panel and provision is made for window and door openings. The honk is supposed to have a maximum life of 15 years. The second prefabricated housing development was at Stadthagen where plans were in preparation for the fabrication of units to cost from 8,000 to 10 000 marks ex- clusive of foundation, which is mole than the cost of conventional units of a similar size. This firm made aircraft plywood, laminated wood, and compressed wood during the war and is planning to use these materials all made from beech veneers for a two house having a fist floor area of 50 story prefabricated to 60 square meters. 4 which Beech concrete floor are 1.? x meters °1aminated members form a framework at the in size. panel edges which supports a plywood interior and a compressed wood exterior wall. The interior cavity is to be filled with an organic insulation material. Joints between panels will be covered with plates screwed to tie studding members at the panel edges. Ceiling foists are T ,Petinrg And rwttorp pre leminptea T sections. laminated The roof ls made of "S" shaped sections of compressed wood 11 screwed to the rafters. No actual constrution has taken place so that it is highly probable that Changes in design must be considered a certainty. Airoraf As previously mentioned, wood and plywood No aircraft materials were not considered seriously until 1943 and then only as substitute materials, In general, it was believed by the Germans interviewed that wood aircraft would have an unfavorable weight penalty of 16 to 26 per cent for even the best designs, However, zt s all seemed to the German soien agree that wood does provide a smooth roar for the design of laminar flow wings where such wings were considered desirable, The TA 164, a plywood twin engine ,fighter of the "Mosquito t;'pe designed by Pocks- Mt, had been developed to the stage where produotion orders 7;ere received in the spring of 1944. Actually only 20 planes were completed and only 6 or 7 became operational. Some research in progress included that on sandwich type investigations and the checking of the U8, Forest Productsconstructions Laboratory design data on wood box beams. selection of wood for aircraft was made on a specific gravity basis- by obtaining a sample from each plank with an additional sample for a strength teat, No attempt was ter sawn material and defects were to made to seoure quarbe excluded on the basis of visual examination and the single strength test. Wood Fastenings .; No new developments have of connectors.' The two experts in been made in the uses this field both favored the use of the wood dowel, Three year exposure tests using metal connectors led them to believe that all connectors are satisfactorily corrosion sufficiently heavy material. Nails resistant if made of are regarded in Germany as fasteners for temporary structure only and, therefore, new types of nails of superior holding power have not been studied, Connector Joined trusses. and nailed wood wood arches, e s are regard laminated by erman experts the moat satisfactory types as barrel type roofs have been of roof support, Lamella and used infrequently because the greater erection time of and advantage of the lamella due cost with the further disto dimensional changes moisture causing swaying of the with roof and bowing of the end ma?? s. 12 Glued Laminated Members ,Laminated arches were used where corrosion was In fabrication a factor and for beauty of architecture. and construction high grade material was selected by the engineer for the two outer laminations on each side Which permitted a 25 per cent increase in design stresses. Such laminations were full length over sections of high stress to permit construction without the use of scarf joints, The interior laminations were butt jointed with joints staggered throughout the length of the members. Curvature of laminations was limited by restricting the radius to &thickness ratio between 60 and 100 or by keeping the stress due to curvature at less than 4300 pounds per square inch. All material used was graded by the engineer in charge who utilized each piece in its most effective manner. The nailed wood I beams were developed for temporary structures and were said to cost 1/6 to 1/4 less than did the glued I beams with plywood webs. Such beams were built up to 3 or 4 meters in depth and 20 to 40 meters in length, designed for a stress of about 1,000 pounds per square inch in the compression flange. They were reported to have been used to a considerable extent for temporary bridge structures in eastern Germany and Russia, When laminated members were used in aircraft, the laminations, which were usually of beech, were from 0.1 to 1 mm thick bonded generally with Tego film. Such members were compressed to various degrees and, therefore, provided a material with a wide range in various uses. It was the opinion of one properties for engineer that only by building up members leading German of many thin laminations to provide a uniform and relatively stable material could wood compete as a structural material with metals. Material made up in this manner with various train orientations of adjacent laminations have been reported in Germany as being successfully used in gunstocks, gears, bearings, machine parts, and other articles. Wood in Vehicles Utilization of wood in truck bodies was carried on to a considerable extent. Only one species, red pine, however, was used and no attempt was made to select quarter or flat sawn stock for various parts nor were any of the members laminated. The only treatment the wood received was painting since the life of the truck body was not related to resistance to wear or decay but to combat damage. . 13 Wood Conversion Xquipment Limited observations on fabrication of wood indicated that the Germans used the machine tools they had without attempting to develop special saws or nut Special tipped saws and tools tipped with ting tools. tungsten carbide were preferred for cutting such materials These special as oompreg, but were not always_ available. steels came generally from Krupp and little was known concerning their properties or details of manufacture. Wood Grades In general, the selection of wood for specific purposes was left to the contractor or engineer on the job and no attempt was made to grade the material at the sawmill, The mills are reported to be too small to engage in such a practice and it was felt that the German engineer was well qualified to judge where a particular plank or timber was to be used and how it should be placed in the structure to best utilise its properties and avoid its defeats. PULP AriD PAI'LR The German pulp and paper industry was found in general to have been less advanced than the same industry elsewhere, In many branches of the industry normal .Jarman technology was, in faot backward, It was only in the development of technologies for certain normally submarginal fields to meet war -time expedients or in the use of pulp and paper products as substitutes for critical materials that the German industry had shown any recent developments, Such fields and uses included bleached beech sulfite pulp for nitrate; special purified wood pulps as a cellulose for cotton for other cellulose derivatives;substitute yeast grown on sugars in sulfite waste liquor; ing sulfite waste liquor to avoid evaporating and burnstream pollution; sul fits spin paper for binder twine as paper And sisal; hardboard from a substitute for sultes fiberized or use in nouse wastes oonetruotion; and a relativelywood small number gf pulp and paper products as substitutes critical materials like asbestos, rags and glass. for products as such apnvrently Paper did not play an outstanding part in the war outside of their important oonventional uses Except possibly for the yeast and hard fiber&, the products bora, developed found to be inferior to normal were for the most part products or the processes by which they were made to be uneconomical in peace conditions, espeoially for -time application in s_ _, America,. 14 New pulp and papermill installations since 1938 in the area visited, which included. trio beech pulp mills, several hard fiberboard mills, two paper machines, and a number of auxiliary pieces of equipment, were found to be The of high quality and modern design, but conventional. Finkh pulp screen was believed to be the most important equipment development proven by use. Normal development and installation of equipment were undoubtedly curtailed by the limited amount of materials of construction allotted to the paper industry, Nevertheless, a few new designs in equipment, such as the Shongau jet- barker, the Scheufelen filter, and the Brecht- Darmstadt stook inlet, were in process of development, although not proved. Institutional and mill research was found to be directed mainly toward improving the quality of pulp and paper products, twoard better utilisation of these product', and toward finding substitutes for wood fibers themselves. The development of protective papers, for example, had received considerable attention, but this field was not believed to be very advanced, Because of the minimum of new developments found in the German pulp and paper industry, a considerable portion of the investigation was devoted to finding out the manufaoturing procedures actually employed in the various branches of the industry. These procedures differ in many respects from those used in America and it was believed that an exposition of them would be helpful to the American industry,, The highlights observed in the different phases of the German pulp and paper industry were as follows: Sulfite Pulping Sulfite pulping practices were considerably less advanced in the mills visited than in most American mills. Wood barking was generally done by knife- barking methods, although a few drum wasteful, barkers were said to be used and a jet barker was under development. Chipping was done with old-style 3 or 4 knife chippers. The pulping was done by time -honored procedures with application of none of the more recent developments like the hot-acid system or the use of high pressure and strong 15 The digestion orioles were very long and abnormally low outputs were realized per digester. The pulp was universally discharged from the digesters by washing. Cooking control was entirely by hand. Lxoept for minor changes in the temperature schedule for increased uniformity of pulping the usual procedures for producing a soft pulp were applied to beech for ultimate usage as a chemical pulp, The use of the Finkh screen for both coarse and fine pulp screening was perhaps the most outstanding equipment apThe quality of sulfite pulp produced in Germany plication. was understood not to have been exceptional, acid. Bleaching Sulfite Pulp Modern pulp bleaching procedures were used in only a relatively few mills, and the average level was below that elsewhere. The use of sodium hypochlorite in the final bleaching stage of pulps for chemical purposes was common. The quality of unpurified bleached beech sulfite pulp was apparently adequate for nitrating. A shortcoming of the pulp for use in viscose manufacture was its high fraction of short fibers, although its low resin content was a desirable characteristic, Purified (High Alpha) Pulps Purified wood pulps made conventional purification methods or by the war time bydevelopments of sulfate pulping preceded by hydrolysis of the wood and of nitric acid pulping apparently served as satisfactory substitutes for cotton for the manufacture derivatives, The successful uses of nitric of cellulose acid pulp for cellulose acetate and of the prehydrolyzed pulp in high strength rayon tire cords and cigarette paper were of particular interest although neither pulping process is new in principle. It is doubtful process could be operated successfullyhowever, if either in an Amerioan economy. Sulfite Taste Liquor Utilization Utilization of the sugars in sulfite waste for alcohol production has been practiced in all German mills since World War I, although the economics are understood to be unfavorable. The development of the technology yeast production when required for important advancement in recent by the use of beech is an years, and this industry 16 may possibly survive under normal conditions. Further, the technology developed may find some application in American mills. The utilization of by- products from the evaporated liquor was on the same limited scale as before the war and no new uses have been developed. The evaporation and burning of sulfite waste liquor to prevent stream pollution received certain technological advances, but the problems were not all solved and the economies are very unfavorable. Kraft Pulping and Bleaching This industry is of minor importance in and is conducted along older conventional lines. Germany The product was regarded as only average. The prehydrolysts development is discussed under "Purified Pulps. Groundwood Pulping and Brightening This industry is a:>: arently still conducted under the same relatively low temperature conditions which have characterized it for years. There was considerable interest in developing a:high strength groundwood pulp in order to benefit from the high yield advantage of this process, but the development was not believed, to have been put on a oommercial basis. Steamed groundwood for use in long been made in substantial boards has quantities in Germany, Paper and Paperboard Exoept for the manufacture of paper high -speed news machinesnewsprint (not seen), German papermaxing in the mills visited was characterized by low outputs on old slow-speed machines with of control and regulating a minimum equipment. Beater processing of the pulp was used to a large extent and the the operators played skill of a very important part in producing the high grade specialty mills had a considerable papers for which a few German reputation. Although papers like crepe paper for certain nitrating, sain paper, certain protective papers and were developed during Pere no the war ón'o paper is or be w me uses. an extensiv. applion a few modern . á aearo Hard fiberboard The manufacture of a hardboard similar Masonite (but believed to inferior in en,llty) rated wood was understood from dell,to have been a sent, Several small wellwartime develop. mills were erected and wellequipped since 1938 to produce a board for 17 construction, reputedly from wood waste.` This development may possibly find application in Amerioa if the product can compete on a quality basis with similar boards now on the market and the process is proven to be a oo nomi oal. Special Paper Products Protective papers with wet -strength or impervious qualities had apparently aroused considerable interest, but they were found to be used relatively little and they were still in the initial developmental stage. The need for protective papers for packaging was very small in Germany in comparison with that in the United States. waterproof papers were mostly oonventional although special treatments were reported, but not verified. Binder twine of an acceptable quality from sulfite paper was developed and used. The paper laminated plastic field was devoted entirely to the production of electrical insulation materials to longaccording known methods, Research A certain amount of research was done to find substitute fibers for wood fibers and to make wood fibers stretch further, but no great application resulted as far as could be determined, Practical research was apparently conducted to a considerable extent to meet immediate needs, but no outstanding pieces of work were found, WOOD CH1 ICALS The Sohollsr wood hydrolysis plants in Germany were a disappointment and U.S, development is out in front except in the fermentation and growth of yeast on the wood sugar solutions; also a five -hour alcohol fermentation with Torula at the Holsminden plant certainly was a step forward. ' The production and utilization of wood sugar played a small but significant P part in the German war eoonomt, Plants producing alcohol by the Schuller prooesF and from sulfite liquor had capacities totalling 10,000 000 liters and 25,000,000 liters per The total capacity of plants for the year, respectively, production of yeast from wood sugar of all sources wait n excess of 25,000 metric tons per year Additional plants for the production yeast from sulfite liquor were under construction at of end of hostilities. the 18 Contrary to widely published reports, the Soholler process was not greatly expanded, during the There has been no significant progress in the war. technique of sugar production, but the fermentation of wood sugar to alcohol is carried out by a rapid continuous yeast reuse method requiring as little as five hours, The still bottoms from one Soholler plant in Germany, one in Switzerland, and from a Swiss sulfite liquor alcohol plant are processed to produce yeast, This is interesting chiefly from the standpoint of reducing stream pollution. The two Bergius wood sugar plants in Germany vere found to be using the technique described in the chemical literature before the war, This process is technically an interesting one, but plant investment and chemical requirements make it impracticable. Nearly all sulfite liquor in Germany was used produce yeast or alcohol. No evidence was found of rapid or novel alcoholic fermentations. The production of food yeast from sulfite liquor, except for one small unit at I, G. Wolfen makes use of the Waldhof system. This process is continuous requires about 4 S hours, and makes use of mechanical aeration and foam breaking equipment. The overall plant yield in this been 40, based on the reducing sugar content process has of the fite liquor. Liquor from beech or spruce is equally sulsatisfactory. Complete engineering data and many blueprints of the necessary equipment have been obtained for this process. t No new developments can be occurred during the war in the wood reported as having carbonization industry of Germany, The newest plant was built in 1936 at Bodenfelde using the .,eichert process. However, many of the details of that process which were useful to anyone interested in research obtained may prove or development of the wood carbonization industry in the United States, While no commercial process for the production of vanillin is in operation in Germany, the details proposed pilot plant obtained of a should be of interest in the from Ligrowa,.G,m.b.H. States. 19 Research Some of the leading German wood and cellulose research workers were interviewed. An unpublished thesis by a student of Staudinger was obtained on the different behavior of various celluloses toward xanthation. This is considered a very useful report, and both the #;final and a translation are available for reference. r The details were obtained from the Frederich Bergius Research Laboratory for an interesting process for the continuous concentrated acid hydrolysis of wood. This h s gone through only the first stages of development in the laboratory, but it gives some promise of overcoming serious disadvantages in the present Bergius process. A number of other workers prominent in wood and cellulose research in Germany were interrogated in an effort to gain information on recent scientific and industrial advances in this field. While some information was obtained, it was apparent that wood and oellulose research had not fared well through the war. iO1 6fAY Germany It was reported by officials of the Forestry Institute at SCl'tloss heinbek as follows: (1) For the war period, the average annual oon -_ sumption of wood in Germany was from 80 to 90 mi1lionaubic meters. Of this, Germany (as of 1937, before the occupation of Austria) provided 60»-66 million cubic meters; prior to the war, about 40 million cubic meters. . - it From the above, appears that from 1/4 to 1/3 of Germany's war wood supply came from forests other than within its 1937 boundaries; and that during the war it was cutting from its 19,".7 forests about 50 per cent more than prior to the war, when for some years it had been overcutting, variously estimated in 1937 at from 10 to 30 per cent, of its own forests was prescribed by Government order, and the cutting was based on and controlled to conform to sustained yield. For softwoods (conifers) sustained The above overcutting 20 yield was based on an 80 to 100 years rotation, but mostly 80; for hardwoods, an average rotaWith selective cutting, the tion of 140 years. result of the foregoing policy is to reduce the age - size - class distribution of the trees, leaving forests with much more of the younger and smaller trees, but not destroying the forest resources. During the war only the very young forests have not been currently thinned; the older forests have been. (2) No reasonable overall estimate could be obtained of damage to German forests from military opera- tions, but the following was cited as examples: Damage due to setting forests afire to burn out troops in them amounted to 40 per cent destruction in both the Unterluss forest region of 8,700 hectares and in the Sprackensehl forest region of 6,000 hectares, With hardwoods, there has been no damage from fire, Forest damages from shell fire has been small: for a big area, not over 1 per cent, - War damage or destruction of sawmills, plywood factories, and pulp and paper mills, has been relatively small, chiefly because of the wide distribution of such operations, Generally, damage occurred only when a factory was near a railroad or in the center of an industrial city, More than 50 per cent of Germany's former pulp and paper and artificial fibre production capacity is in Russian occupied territory, (3) German utilization of wood for chemical products (other than pulp and paper and artificial fibre) has been very small, Austria For Austria, particularly the Tyrol, an Austrian Government representative (not a forester but intensively trained both technically and in economics) reported as follows: (i) forests TAP *orestn of the Tyro/ (and probably the in much of the of Austria) were not overout or damaged during the war. The Hitler government rest 21 ordered that they be overcut at least 50 percent but because of bombing and transporation difficulties, this was never carried out to any important extent. (2) That Austria should be able in the future to export forest products at least as extensively as in prewar years and that this is very important to Austria's future economic situation. (3) Other factors that he felt were critically important to Austria's economic survival included the future export of oil (possibly 25 percent of the production from new oil supplies that have been discovered fairly recently in Austria); the development of precision machinery for export, the production of such equipment having been an important prewar activity; and last but by no means least, vigorous development of the tourist trade (based on the magnificent Austrian scenery of which forests form such an important part) as rapidly as possible. -22- 4 FOREST PRODUCTS REPORTS PREPARED BY INVESTIGATORS Targets* Title Type of Report ** MODIFIED AND IMPROVED WOOD Modified and improved wood in Western German, by Seborg & Fleischer I-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, 9,10,12,13,14,15, 16,17,18,19 (II - 4,22,39) TIIC Resin filled fiberboard made by Holig Homogenholz at Baiersbronn, by Winslow- Diekerman-Saeman.
