Their ocapletion will open t large area of virgin forest containing 1,300,000 cubic meters of wood for ezp.loit,3Lion. . truck road, 83 ki lcmeters long, from Tabelica to Suvajoirm, will open a r:,w lumbering area containing about 800,000 cubic meters of outet.tidi't beech wood. The forest at Suvajcir,.. has never beet out. All the earthwork has al rcody been completed, and the road will be entirely finished by l August. The main truck road, in the Iiavni Do lumbering district will be extended 5 iicmeters to Bjelajska Uraia, where about a half million cubic meters of ever- een timbir await exploitation. The earthwork has been completed on 2 kilo- motera of this road. Seoerai ropeways will be installed this year in the Turshos Pods lumbering diatri,L. Truck roads will not be built'because this district does not have a great deal of wood, but ropewaye will be built from the and of the present road to all points where lumber is to be out. The old roads to the Turekaa Voda and Havni Do lumber camps will be repaired. H, new sawmill, one of the, most modern in Yugoslavia, will be put into operation within a few days at the headquarters' of the "Una" Enterprise. All construction has already been completed. A 1,200-meter ropeway for the transport of wood has been installed in who lumber camp at Leskovac in Serbia. The ropeway can be set up wherever It is needed. It will take the place of roads, the construction of which would have cost 180,000 dinars, occupied 100 skilled workers for 20 days, and used up 120 cubic meters of the beet beech wood. The installation of the ropeway has increasad the transport of wood in the camp and lowered transport costa by 65 ye-cont. It assures a supply of wood to the sawmill even during bad weather when draft animals cannot work. NEW BOvf"WAY IN SLOVENIA -- Borba, No i59, 6 Jul 49 The workers of the forestry collective at Celje, in Slovenia have built a new ropeway 3.800 meters long. It has been in operation for the last month, carrying about 100 cubic meters of beech wood o the truck road every day. Good harvests are expected in all districts of the Vojvodina. Current estimates predict an average yield of 15 - 16 metric centnere of wheat per hectare, or about 20 percent more than the 10-year prewar average for the same territory. The best yield of white grains is ezuected in Central and Southern Backa, near Zrenjanin; and in the southern part of the Banat. This year the entire harvest and threshing on state farms will be done by machine. If there are not enough machines, the People's Councils will mobilize privately owned machinery for use on the state farms. This should obviate such losses as were suffered last year because of the shortage of manpower on state farms, END - -2 - RESTRICTED AFcT2!r,TFD Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/07/06: CIA-RDP80-00809A000600250129-1
