| Description: | CINEVIEWS IN BRIEF NO 64 White cedar trees are dragged from a New Jersey swamp for house building At Port Norris in New Jersey, United States of America, we see men using machinery to drag white cedar trees from the swamps and bogs. The trees have been preserved in the swamps for centuries. A man counts the rings on a cross-section of a tree trunk. Another man cuts the trunks down using a huge circular saw. A man puts a log on top of a pile of wooden slats that have been cut for house building. | |
