WEST SIDE MILL TO OPEN
NEXT WEEK
Front page news reprinted from The Tuolumne
Prospector, April 17, 1947
“The opening of the West Side Lumber
Company sawmill will depend upon the log supply, but it is estimated by Fred
Ellis, president and manager, that the activity will begin either next
Wednesday or Thursday, April 23 or 24, 1947.
“The lumber workers went up to Camp 44 on
Tuesday and logging commenced yesterday.
Mr. Ellis stated. There is a full
crew in action and the early start of operations give promise of an outstanding
lumber production this year. The lack of
snow allowed the workers to get into camp a bit earlier than usual this year. Last year, in 1946, woods operations started
on April 24 with 1 ½ million feet produced for the month of April. Mr. Bill Burner, general
superintendent of the woods last year, will serve in that capacity again this
season.”
