NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These statements are unaudited financial statements and 
should be read in conjunction with the 1993 Annual Report 
of the Company.

Effective as of January 1, 1993, the Company adopted new
Financial Accounting Standards Board requirements that govern
the way deferred taxes are calculated and reported. Adoption
of these requirements entailed a one-time adjustment that had
no effect on the Company's first quarter 1993 net loss.

In the second quarter of 1993, the Canadian federal government
reduced the statutory tax rate applicable to the Company.  In
accordance with the requirements of the newly adopted
accounting standard, net Canadian deferred tax liabilities
were reduced to reflect these rate reductions. The resultant
benefit of $5,020,000, or 13 cents per fully diluted common
share, has been included in the caption "Income tax benefit"
on the Statements of Loss for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1993.

The estimated tax rate for the first six months of 1994, was
40 percent, compared with a rate of 38 percent, exclusive of
the impact of the adjustment to deferred taxes, for the same
period in the prior year.  These rates were based on actual
year-to-date results and projected results for the remainder
of the year.

Early in the first quarter of 1993, the Company issued 
$111,151,000, net of issuance costs, of 9.4 percent
nonconvertible Series F preferred stock.

During the first quarter of 1993, the Company sold its
interest in a specialty paper producer at a pretax gain of
$8,644,000, or 14 cents per fully diluted common share after
taxes.
