Thomag Jefrerron aaid: "Our firrt and fundamcntd maxim should be, never to entanglc ourselves ln thc broilr of Europe. '|. * * Even ahould thc cloud of barbarism and dcspotiam again obscure the science and libcrties of Europe, thig country remains to preserve and regtore light and liberty to them. In short, the flamcs kindlcd on the Fourth of July, L776, have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeblc engines of despotism; on the contrary, they will conrume these engines and all who work them." +rl

As this is written the fur flies between thoee Americans who ,believe that we are "my brother'B kecpcr"-the brothers in this case meaning all the rest of the world-and those who contend we should first make ourselves overwhelmingly strong at home, and thus preserve and conserve our strength so that we shall have it when vitally needed. The first call themselves "liberals." They call the others "isolationists."

Of one thing there can be no doubt; concerning it there is no room for argument; if Jefferson and Washington were here today to repeat the solemn warnings they left behind for our guidance, they would be the world's outstanding isolationists. Read what Jefferson said, as quoted above, and recall Washington's solemn warning against "foreign entanglements," and try to imagine what dirty letters those two would get. **

Holmes Alexander had a column recently that tickled me. He told about a fictitious American who was complaining about certain things he did not fully understand. This guy said he gave some money to an Englishman, who used it to buy some timber from a Russian. The Russian, in turn, used the money to buy a gun to point at the American, and threaten his life. So, the American had to buy a gun to protect himself from the gun that had been bought with the money he had given the Englishman. He went to the Englishman to whom he had given the money in the first place, and suggested that he stop doing business with the Russian. And what made him mad was that the Englishman not only refused, but asked for more money to buy more things from the Russian, so that he could buy more guns to point at the American. **

With all the tragedy of 1950, there was also some fun. The nation's comics pulled literally thousands of cracks and gags about Truman's letter writing. No doubt the most quoted was uttered by Fred Allen. Changing a bit Henry Clay's immortal remark that he would "rather be

right than Preeident," AUen said that Truman "would rather write than be Prerident." **

The funniest remark I heard all through the year-funny because I'm guch a cofree hound myself-was by aomeone unknown to me who said: "Cofree is so wonderful I don't see why it isn't a Ein."

The State Department was thc butt of numerous bitter jokes, most of them based on the fact that an army of sexual degenerates was discovered and discharged from that department. Naturally, those sort of jokes are not of the parlor variety, so I will do no guoting, although many of them have been printed in numerous newspapers and periodicals.

Earl Wilson, columniet, dedicated a song to the income tax department, entitled-"I wonder what's become of salary." You sing it to the famous air of the Sally song.

Some very wise philos";; I don't know who-said: "Don't forget this-if the positions of the United States and Russia were reversed-lvE* WO ULD N'T BE HERE !"

And if you think we would, brother, you are the world's champion optimist, and too dizzy to be running loose withoutakeeper.

It was printed and repeated continually through 1950 that-"This is the Promised Land; everything we have has been promised to somebody." I thought the best cartoon of the year was one by Goldberg, showing Truman out in a cornfield shaking hands with a scarecrow and asking: "What can I promise you?"

Alf Landon, once nominee for Presiderit, pulled one as full of wisdom as anything Ben Franklin ever said. It seems he is an old-fashioned poker player, and not in sympathy with these wild and modern kinds of poker where they play wild cards, jokers, and a dozen kinds of seven card stuff which remove all the fundamentals from the famous old American game. After being dragged into one of those mad eessions he was heard to remark that "the United States began to go to hell when the people lost their respect for two pair."

Annual Review of Building in 1950

Although total expenditures for new building broke all records in 1950 by rising above $27 billion, the physical volume of new privately financed construction fell somewhat short of the peak reached in 1927, Clyde A. Fulton, president of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, stated.

"However, the quantity of materials handled in retail lumber and building materials yards reached an all-time high during the year, owing to the unprecedented volume of home building and repair and modernization work," Mr. Fulton said.

"In spite of the fact that $100 billion of new construction has been completed since the end of World War II, there has been little, if any, of the overbuilding which characterized the construction boom that followed the first World War.

"The 5,500,000 nerv homes built since 1945 were just about enough to catch up with the demand, and the physical volume of industrial and commercial construction has remained below the peak level reached in the 1920's, even though the population has increased by one-third in the meantime.

It was a losing fight, and he moved to New York and soon dropped dead. It is said that a friend asked him-"Why did they drive you out of Hollywood?" And he 3nsq7grsfl-"They caught me with an American fag in my hand." **

Bruce Barton, one of the few great thinkers in America today, utters these sage words:. "If we Americans think and act in the firm belief that the security and sound economy of the U. S. are the first essential of world progress we shall avoid lots of quarrels that are none of our business, and make fewer mistakes. Accuse me of being old-fashioned, if you please; but don't accuse of being coldblooded. I am thinking about warm blood-THE BLOOD OF AMERICAN BOYS.''

greatly depleted at the height of the 1950 building season, are being rebuilt steadily in anticipation of a relatively large amount of building in the new year, although stocks of most materials containing strategic metals will remain relatively low as a result of the diversion of steel, copper, and other materials to the defense production program.

"The trend toward increased efficiency and lower handling costs in the distribution of materials continued steadily during the year with greater use of mechanized and time-saving equipment, continued training of the 100,000 or more new men employed in retail yards since World War II, and development of better methods of inventory control."

Log Angeler Setg New Building Record in 1950

Los Angeles had its biggest building year in 1950 when new construction totaled $4f7,178,693. The unprecedented volume of building exceeded by $34,128,611 the previous high of $373,050,082 in 19,t8. Construction in 1949 totaled $29t,377,497.

This year's total is approximately twice the $200,133,181 set in 1923 during the city's building boom of the '20s. The figure f.or 1923 was the high mark for construction until 1947 rvhen the valuation was $258,422,266.

During 1950, Kl,444 permits were issued compared with

New Minute Mqn Progrron Getting Resultg

The new Minute Man Program of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association has achieved A-l results to date, judging by the hundreds of newspaper clippings already received from all parts of the country.

Under the program, which was planned and organized by the National's Public I{elations Department, press releases prepared by the National are sent out once a month to the 900 membcrs of the I'ublic Affairs or "I\[inute Man" Committee. These releases are keyed to win public support for the industry's viewpoint on government action, legislation, and other vital matters. In addition, they are designed to give the public a better understanding of the place of the retail materials dealer in the community and in the national economy. They point up the many valuable services the dealer performs and emphasize the need for protecting the private enterprise system.

More than 500 clippings from about 400 communities have been received following issuance of the first two Minute Man releases, and there have been hundreds of other instances in which releases have been published but clippings were not obtained.

The program is being carried out under the direction of C. B. Su'eet of the Long-Bell Lumber Company, Longview, Washington. Mr. Sweet is the past president of NRLDA during whose tenure the drive was initiated, and he has recently been appointed chairman of the Minute Man Committee.

The dealer members of the committee who receive the releases from the National re-type them on their own stationery and send them in their own names to the local newspapers within their trading area. The majority of smaller newspapers in particular welcome timely and interesting statements from well-known local businessmen. With the National's own releases and supplemented in this way, the net results add up to much better publi'c relations for the industry as a rvhole.

The Minute Men are, of course, free to make any revisions in the releases that seem appropriate to the local situation. Furthermore, if any member of the committee prefers not to issue a particular statement for one reason or another, he is quite free to withhold it.

Of the first three releases which have been sent to the press by the Minute Men, the first summarized the pros-

56,962 permits in 1949.

Building permits issued by Los Angeles for the month of l)ecember totaled 5,060 with a valuation ol $42,131,24O. This compared with 4,48O permits in November valued at $42,87,439 and 4,239 permits in December 1949, which were valued at $20,183,783.

Home, duplex and apartment permits for December covered 2,036 dwelling units valued at $17,375,787 against 1,4(r5 dwelling units in December 1949 valued at $12,779,691.

pects for private construction in line with the rearmament program, stressing the fact that a large volume of construction could go forward unless the country became embroiled in an all-out war. The second explained the factors behind the temporary local shortages of building materials and indicated that the record rate of production gave promise that supply and demand would be equalized in a short time. The third release estimated that a new record in .home repair and improvement might very probably be set within the next year since restrictions on such work will undoubtedly be kept to a minimum because Federal officials realize that existing homes must be maintained in good condition whenever new building is necessarily curtailed.

The publication re'pords for these three releases that have been tabulated at the National have been exceptionally encouraging, and individual comments ttrat have been received from Committee members have been most favorable. Many newspapers have featured the stories on their front pages. Some dealers have succeeded in having the releases printed in as many as nine papers' and quite a few report that their statements were announced on local newscasts. In addition, a number of individual dealers, who have learned of the program through the early releases, have been volunteering to participate.

The membership of the Minute Man Committee is being enlarged so that, if possible, every county in the United States will be covered by the program. Lists of additional dealers who wish to cooperate in it are being compiled by the State and Regional Associations, and these men will shortly be added to the regular mailing list.

Dealert Have Enough Yard Capacity to Store a Year's Production o[ Lumber

The nation's 26,000 retail lumber and building materials dealers have enough yard capacity to store more than a full year's production of lumber in case stockpiling becomes desirable for defense purposes, H. R. Northup, executive vice president of th6 National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, announced.

"Retail dealers can accommodate a total of 70 billion board feet in their yards and in other adjacent space, according to a comprehensive survey made by NRLDA at the request of Federal agencies," Mr. Northup said.

"The country's lumber yards also have sufficient trackage to permit 103,000 freight cars containing 2.5 billion board feet to be unloaded at one time.

"In addition, dealers have more than 88,000 trucks, tractors, and other r.nechanized handling equipment with which to move lumber supplies from retail yards to points where it might be needed quickly in any emergency and have 9,552 planing mills anf, 1,148 drv kilns.

"In view of the fact that these yards are strategically located across the country with respect to population, our association is recommending that in the event of a serious emergency, regular retail storage space be utilized to accommodate any inventories which the government may desire to accumulate.

"So far as is known, no plans for stockpiling large quantities of lumber are contemplated at this time, although moderate inventories are being built up to meet the current needs of the rearmament program.

"Because of the rapid rate at which lumber has been used so far this year, inventories in retail yards at the present time are only. about 5.5 billion board feet, but the yards are ready to receive large additional supplies as fast as they can be produced and delivered."

The 6'l-Page history traces the gron'th of Calaveras Cemerrt Company since the firm's incorporation irr 192.5. In it is reprocluced a photograph of the first carloa<1 of cement shipped from its San Andreas, California, plant on June 14, 1926. The car rvas bought by the Lridi I-umber Company. Six carloads \\.ere shipped on the plant's opening clay, and with the exception of tt'o firms no longer in business, all of the original Calaveras customers continue today on the c()mpany's list of active accounts.

Factors in the company's grorvth have been its insistence on maintaining high irroduct quality, top-notch service and fair dealing. Its n'hite Portland Cement is sold throughout the eleven Western States. Regular Portland cement, early hardening Irortlancl Cemer.rt ancl plastic cement are sold principally in the Central Valley area.

Objectir,ely rvritten, the history candidly discusses the

development at the plant so that efficiency lvould be increased.

The 'n'isdom of his policies was proved on this occasion ag on others in the company's past. In the following year the firm won a contract to supply cement for construction of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, and from that time on it has experienced a steady growth.

Today its manufacturing plant has a capacity of 2.500,000 barrels of cement a year-more than twice its production at the end of World War II. Since the writing of the book, still another expansion program involving an investment of $600,000 in new plant equipment has been announced.

It is pointed out in the company history that since Calaveras has been in business, the cost of cement has risen only slightly in comparison to other products. At the same time, quality has been improved.

"The highly efficient cement industry," it says, ,,ofiers its customers what is probably the lowest-priced manufactured article by weight rvhich can be purchased in the country."

Paying tribute to the loyalty and conscientious service of the company's employees in all branches of the business, the history describes the intensive training program provided for its salesmen before they are put on the road.

ft says : "The company's salesmen are carefully selected and thoroughly grounded in company policy, cement technology and the many variations in the use of the product. They are given an intensive training course at the plant to help them maintain the company's unchallenged reputation for service."

Of the company's transport drivers, the book has this to say:

Sinews of Steel for Wood Structures

Recent curbs on the civilian use of steel have brought lumber even more to the fore as a necessary and highly desirable building material. For many structural purposes it is replacing steel now being diverted to the essential production of military arms and equipment. The use of lumber in place of structural steel is made possible by steel-ringed timber connectors which add the strength of steel to the durability and versatility of lumber.

Large quantities of steel can be saved without a severe cutback in civilian building by employing connector-supported lumber where specifications originally called for structural steel. This technique was used extensively in World War II for both civilian and military construction. Towers, bridges, hangars, warehouses and other military installations were made of wood.

Timber connectors are pressed steel rings or malleable iron plates ranging from 2l to 4 inches in diameter. By placing the rings in circular grooves between adjacent faces of overlapping timbers, they provide a larger supporting area than is possible with other joining methods. They serve to spread the load on a joint more equally over the cross section of the wood and thereby bring more fully into play the structural strength of the timber.

A typical World War II example of steel conservation made

tion of their stake in the company's welfare are perhaps best exemplified in the team spirit of the transport truck drivers. These men have built a reputation for delivering cement to the buyer when and as he wants it, and they take pride in carrying forward a tradition of service which has been maintained tl,roughout the years."

William Wallace Mein is founder and president of Calaveras Cement Company. Vice-Presidents include William Wallace Mein, Jr., who is assistant to the president, and H. C. "Pat" Maginn, who is chairman of the company's manag'ement committee.

possible by the use of this improved method of wood construction was a Navy blimp hangar, 1,000 feet long, 153 feet high, with a roof span of 237 feet. Without the use of timber connectors, this structure could not have been made of wood, and would have required 2,050 tons of structural steel.

Approximately 200,000 tons of structural steel were saved in a single World War II military construction program by the use of timber.

Timber connectors are a product of the Timber Engineering Company, an engineering and research affiliate of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association.

As a guide in preparing various building designs for the Defense Program, the Timber Engineering Company has just published a new printing of "Typical Designs of Timber Structures." During World War II the first edition of this book was used by the Armed Forces throughout the world. While the supply lasts, the new 116-page edition will be sent free to Army and Navy architects, engineers and draftsmen. Write to the Timber Engineering Company, 1319 18th St., N.

, Wc*crn Pinc Production, Shipment3 Sct Rccord in 1950

Portland, Ore., Jan.2-The following report of fourth quarter and total 1950 production and shipments of Western pine region lumber and lumber products and estimate of probable first quarter, 1951, shipments were released today by S. V. Fullaway, Jr., secretary-manager of the Western Pine. association. The report covered Idaho white pine, Pnnderosa pine, Sugar pine and associated woods. The statement in full:

"Although our September 29th forecast of fourth quarter shipments was apparenttl' about 170 million above the actual deliveries in that period, the 1950 performance of the Western pine industry has exceeded by considerable rnargin that of any previous year.

"It is now expected that for the year 1950, the Western pine industry will have shipped approximately 7 billion, 6 hundred million and produced 7l billion. These shipments are l3f pcr cent above those in 1949 and production is up ahnost 13 l)cr cent. Total regional stocks on December 31, 1950 are estirnaterl at 1,534 rrrillion, down more than 100 million from a ycar ago.

"The year 19.51 begins itr at attnosphere of doubt and uncertainty. Government controls of construction credit and actual and irnpending curbs on the use of essential metals indicate a drastic <lrop in residential constrttctiou from the record levels of 1950. The emergency status of the nation and the mobilization program call be expected to bring about rapidly a fully regulated economy. It would be surprising if this did not result, at least temporarily, in serious economic dislocations. For the immediate future there appears little prospect of any great military need for lumber.

"FHA figures show a backlog of 400,000 residential units with approved FHA, VA or private loan cornmitments. Currently, however, new starts are down substantially f rom previous periods and from the levels of a year ago. There seems nothing to indicate that residential construction can be expected to attain anything like the volume of 1950. One evidence of the trend is the decline during the past two months of lumber deliveries as compared to a year ago.

"Based on such factors and on all other available information, it now seems probable that during the first quarter of 1951 shipments (consumption) of lumber from the Western pine region will approximate 1,140 million. This will be 20 per cent under the record first quarter of 1950 but higher than those for the same period during the years 1942 to 1945, when war requirements for lumber were at a maximum."

Nate Dodds is a sterling character who solcl lumber for E. J. Stanton & Son continuously for forty-two years. He was one of the most popular men in the lumber selling fraternity in Southern California, always smiling, always cheerful, always a sound and useful man.

Still rugged mentally and physically, Nate Dodds stepped out of the business world a year ago, and retired for keeps' He built a special trailer or traveling motor home, a very practical

and useful one, and started out to see the world on wheels. His first trip lasted seven months. He went to the East Coast, and traveled slowly from Maine to Florida, going where he pleased, lcaving when he pleased, just visiting along the way. He had a wonderful time.

He came back, stayed home with his son for a while, then wcnt forth again and spent several months in the mountain rcgions of the West, where he atso had a great time. Now he is back in Los Angeles, trying to make up his mind where to go next. ()ne thing he is certain of-he is going somewhere very soon. He has itchy feet. For forty and more years he stuck to a job, and now his only job is enjoying himself. His son. his son's wife, and their three sons, live in Nate's home at 1830 South 8th Street, Alhambra, California' They live there, and when Nate is in town, he sort of stays with them. In that rvay he always has a well kept place to come back to.

Swell guy, this old Nate Dodds. The kind you like to go fishing with. A philosopher who gets much joy out of life and hclps put a lot back in, he is much to be envied. He quit while the world still had rnuch to offer him'

To

Be Dedicated and Known Ag C. R. Johnion Trce Farmg

Union Lumber Company, Fort Bragg, Calif., recently sent to many prominent citizens of Mendocino a copy of a letter that had been previously sent to all company employees which briefly stated the policies established to implement the company's Tree Farm Program. Enclosed with the tetter was a pamphlet entitled, "Redwood Region Tree Farms," published by the California Redwood Association, containing an explanation of tree farming.

The letter to Mendocino County citizens stated that the Union Lumber Company felt that they should be informed about Union's Tree Farm Program, the efforts they are making toward perpetuating the forests, and the benefits which it is hoped the community will derive from the program.

The letter to employees, signed by Otis R. Johnson, president; C. Russell Johnson, vice president ; Ray Shannon, general manager, and John H. Gray, woods superintendent, is as follows:

To Union Lumber Company Employees:

By this time you have heard something about the Tree Farm Program of the California Redwood Association. The Tree Farm Program is designed primarily to encourage logging and protection practices that will encourage the growth of future crops of timber. Surely you can appreciate the wisdom of such practices and the benefits to be derived by the Mendocino Coast Area.

You have read in the September "Noyo Chief" that Union Lumber Company's Noyo and Big River properties have been certified as Tree Farms-65,331 acres in all. These properties will be dedicated and known as C. R' JOHNSON TREE FARMS.

It is the policy of our Company to put all of its timber land on a continuously productive basis as soon as possible ancl to rnanage these lands in a manner that will encourage ade<1uate future grorvth. In this endeavor we need the cooperation of our employees, our neighbors and those wllo use our land for recreational purposes.

C)ur Noyo and Big River Tree Farms have on them large lrrcas of second-grovr''th timber, some of n'hich is regarded

Empire Millwork Corp. Acquires Oregon Mill

Empire Millwork Corporation of New York has purchased the Sutherlin Timber Products, Inc., of Sutherlin, Oregon. This plant has complete milling facilities, including sawmill, modern dry kilns, and planing mill. A large stand of timber was acquired with the property.

The company also has a mill at Skyhomish, Wash., producing fir, hemlock, and cedar.

Operations at the two plants are in charge of Chester Miller, vice president. Most of the material processed at the various mill plants is sent to Corona, Long Island for warehousing and distribution throughout the East Coast.

as the best in the State. This young timber, already of considerable value, will become increasingly important as the area of old-growth timber is reduced. It is expected that this young timber and the additional timber which we are striving to grow will become a continuous source of raw material for Mendocino Coast Industry. If this expectation is to be realized, .it is imperative that all who work in or pass thiough the woods do their part in preventing fires and in promptly suppressing those fires that may start.

Another important step towards continuous forest crops is to get our Ten-Mile I'roperty into condition so that it may also be certified as a tree farm. This calls for selective cutting (which we have been practicing for years), close utilization, a minimum of debris burning and better protection of the trees of all sizes which are not to be chopped. On this last point, fallers, bulldozer operators, tractor drivers and chokermen all can play an important part in reducing damage to trees left standing. Any damage to such trees can cause decay and reduce growth. If left undamaged, they will mature more rapidly. Loggers should be particularly on the lookout for fires during the fire season. Fire control has priority over all other work. Should a fire be detected by you and you 'cannot control it yourself, call for help without delay.

In line with our practice for close utilization, loggers should bear in mind that the handling of logs through the operations should be carried on with all care necessary to hold damage, breakage and waste to an absolute minimum. Reduction in waste is a matter of primary importance in all departments throughout the plant as well as in the woods.

Thd interest and cooperation of all is asked as a contribution toward the success of this endeavor to assure permanency of operations, future jobs and a continuously prosperous and stable communitY.

Yours very truly, UNION LUMBER COMPANY

Springfield, OregonOld time millmen probably would goggle at Oregon's first hydraulic sawlog barker, now in operation at Weyerhaeuser's integrated manufacturing centcr here. Is symbolizes a revolutionary trend in milling practices.

"Nude" logs on a sawmill carriage are not yet a common 'sight, but they're destined to become fashionable as the "new look" in our coming age of more complete wood utilization'

Jon R. Titcomb, manager of Weyerhaeuser's lumber division, points out that the bark-eroding device wasn't installed for the primary benefit of sawmill men, although it improves lumber production in manY waYs.

"Our milling leftovers, consisting of cants, slabs and trinrmings not suitable for lumber, become raw material for making the chips used by the Kraft pulp mill, which in turn supplies the containerboard plant with its stock. Such pulp wood must be bark-free. Getting rid of bark before the logs are cut into lumber automatically provides leftovers which are 100 per cent bark-free. This saves considerable sorting work on mill conveyors," explains Titcomb.

The barker is a commercially-produced unit known techni' cally as a ring type, manufactured through arrangements with the Hansel Engineering Company of Seattle, Washington' Located in a building straddling the mill's log haul, this rotat-

The hydraulic barker at Springfield is Weyerhaeuser's second unit. The company's first one was installed at its Longview, Washington branch operation in late 1948, to provide bark-free slabs and cants for the Kraft pulp mill on that site. The Longview barker, designed by the company's engiueering department, cloes the same iob but is different in operating principle. The two sawlog barkers are the only ones operating in the Douglas fir region of Oregon and Washington' They presage " "o--ing trend in the forest products industry, as wood i..ou..y is stepped up to supply Kraft pulp mills'

To The Absent Ohes

Twenty'five years ago about this time the San Joaquin Valley Lumbermen's Club held its annual meeting in Fresno, California, and on that occasion one of its members, Mr. Jack C. Ferger, delivered the following delightful toast which, a quarter of a century later, is worth repeating:

"Let us drink to those who Are not with us tonight."

"May bome taste of our cheer and merriment come to those who, for one reason or another, could not join us; may those whose business called them away, meet success in their efforts; may those whom love called away, be crowned with happiness; may those whom illness has kept from us have the blessing of good health, and that speedily. And to those who are in far countries, may the subtle current of fiiendship carry to them our heart-borne messages of fellowship and faith. And to those who are in

that "far, far country", wholc voicer it reemr at timcr we can almost hear in the murmuring of the breezc at twilight, in the laughter of thc breeze at dawn; whorc faccr come to us in thc drcams that hold u! through the long hourr whcn we ait and think about old timer in the ingle-nook; whore hands wc sometimes almogt touch aE we reach to thc dim veil that hangs between this world of ours and that world of theirs beyond the mountain peaks that stand bctween time and eternity-to them let us drink the love and fricndehip which, becaure it ic lovc and friendghip, io as eternal as the stars and ae undying ar the soul. Let us send to them over and over cvery happy thought, every smile, every gladness they gave us while they were with uB, for to them it is given to know that when we are happier here, they may be happicr there. God blesa them t Those absent ones who are always with us t"

whv?

Even the most puritanical minded man generally admits that stories.and reminiscences told by a profigate are usually ever so much more interesting than those told by a prude.

Found Them Agcin

"When I was a little boy," sweetly pipcd the hard-boiled top sergeant, "I had a set of wooden soldiers. One day I lost these wooden soldiers, and boyJike I cried until I thought my heart would break. But my mother consoled me. She said 'Never mind, Johnnie, don't cry any more, and some day you'll get your wooden soldiers back."'

Then he stopped and glared at the squad of fresh rookies lined up before him.

"And believe me, you woodenheaded bunch of dumbbells, THAT DAY HAS COME!"

The Village Preccher (From Goldsmith's "Deserted Village")

At church, with meek and unaffected grace, His looks adorn the venerable place; Truth from his lips prevailed with double sway, And fools, who came to scoff, remained to pray. The service past, around the pius man, With ready zeal each honest rustic ran; E'en children followed with endearing wile, And plucked his gown, to share the good man's smile. His ready smile a parent's joy expressed, Their welfare pleased him, and their cares distressed; To them his heart, his loves, his griefs were given, But all his serious thought had rest in Heaven. As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form, Swells from the vale and midway leaves the storm, Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head.

Plcrnning c Home Laundry

Laundry specialists name three points that should be considered when planning a home laundry: (1) the location in the house-basement, first floor or second floor; (2) function of the room-will it be a laundry solely, a general utility room or a combination kitchen-laundry?; (3) the arrangement of appliances, counters and cabinets for efficient "assembly line" washday operations.

In the interests of better home planning, Hotpoint, Inc', 5600 West Taylor St., Chicago 44, lll., a leader in the production of automatic washers and dryers, has studied installations in hundreds of homes and talked with architects, builders, home economists and engineers. Here is what the experts say:

Appliances should be located so that doors do not swing into positions blocking use of the devices or cabinets' If no dryer will be incorporated in the laundry center, and clothes must be hung in the yard, an outside entry to the room is advisable.

The automatic washer and the electric rvater heater should be put as close together as p-opible to eliminate long pipe runs between the two for the hot water.

The size of water heater needed depends upon a number of factors : hot water requirements, size of family, automatiq squipment in use (such as a dishwasher in addition to the clothes washer), geographical location. Hotpoint reports models available in capacities from 30 to 82 gallons to meet {amily needs and pocketbooks. Whether a portable or cabinet rotary ironer is best depends upon .space limitations.

Laundry engineers recommend as assembly line order of laundry equipment with appliances arranged from right to left. This puts the water trays at the right follorved by

This attractive home laundry is a first floor arrangement' The pleasantsurroundingsonthefirstfoorandtheaccessibi|ityofthe i"undry room to other household activities, such as keeping an "rrur"i eye on the children, proceeding with meal preparations' sewing, nren<ling, and performing the other uncounted tasks a woman faces.'r'ake thii location popular. In recent surveys conducted by Hotpoint, 70 per cent of women planning changes irr their home laundries voted for a first floor arrangement' The layout above could be transplanted easily to the second floor, a move which has interested women because of the saving in stair climbing and bundle carrying. Most soiled clothes and linens are changed on the second floor and clean clothes stored there.

the automatic washer and dryer and then the ironer'

Modern laundry equipment can fit into as little as five feet of wall space' However, home laundry engineers say that the ideal arrangement is to have a base cabinet between the washer and dryer and another between the dryer and ironer. Counter space on the opposite side of the sink from the washer is also advisable.

Now that inventory takingand the holiday season-is behind us we should be able to settle down and talk about furnishing lumber to bring YOUR inventory to the proper level.

fn other words-"Let's Talk About Lumbsl"- Should demand nrn away from supply we're going to be in a messparticularly under the present economic situation over which none of us has the slightest control.

The increasing dealer acceptance of the lumber we peddleand the more and more patrons we service-leads us to believe we're dishing out the proper SERVICE and offering the proper ITEMS to the trade.

We have always represented mills that manufacture GOOD lumber and when you encounter problems in getting the species, grades and sizes of materials you need for your trade-JUST CALL US-because we'll put that EXTRA EFFORT behind YOUR order that generally GETS RESULTS

See what I mean?

Portland, Dec. 30 - Western Pine Tree Farms in Oregon passed the million-acre mark in 1950 to Iead all other states in the 12-state \A/estern Pine region, final figures shorved today.

\\'estern lrlne association forester Ernest L. Kolbe reported that eight new Oregon Tree Farms covering I55,620 acresincluding one 84,855-acre tract of the Gilchrrst Lumber company at Gilchrist\\rere certified during the year to bring the total number to 21 and total acreag.e to l,a$,r27.

The entire region meanwhile added 29 others for a total acreag.e increase of 358,32;6, placing the regional total at 305 certified areas covering 3,722,312 acres.

Nctioncrl Housing Activity Down in November

Homebuilding dropped sharply in November when build_ ers started 85,000 new permanent nonfarm dwelling units, according to preliminary estimates of the Labor bepart_ ment's Bureau of Labor Statistics. This was a decline of 18,000 units from October, and was 10,500 units under the number begun in Nove,mber 1949. Although a seasonal decline normally occurs at this time, homebuilding was practically at a standstill in some sections of the country during parts of November because of severe storms. La.t year, when abnormally mild weather prevailed in most parts of the country, the October-Novernber clrop in non_ farm starts was 8 per cent, compared with 1g per cent this year.

During the first 11 months of 1950, almost 1,300,000 new dwelling units .lr,'ere put under construction, 37 per cent above last year's volme for the same months. pubiic hous_ ing included in tlie January-Nove,mber total amounted to 26,500 units in 1950 compared with 35,000 in 1949.

Demand foi oak and other hardwood flooring should continue at a high tevel in l95l unless additional restrictions are placed on new housing construction, Secretary Henry H. Willins reported at the annual meeting of the National Oak Flooring Manufacturers' Association, held in December at Memphis, Tenn'

The hardwood flooring industry, he said, enjoyed its greatest volume in history last year (1950). For the first time, shipments in tlre Southern and Appalachian regions passed the l-billion board foot mark' The fornter record of 795 million feet was established in 1948 and nearly equalled in 1949 when 785 million feet were shipped' The Southern Appalachian areas account for approximately 9O per cent of the nation's entire hardwood fooring outPut' All but al>out 5 per cent of their volume consists of oak'

Unaninrous apltr<lval of a three year research prrlgraltr to help comltat <lak wilt, re-election of officers and expansion of the l>oartl of directors f,r<>ml2 to l5 members \\'ere other highlights of the meeting.

The Association voted a special assessnlent against n"lembers to raise the bulk of a $20,000 annual contribution for three years toward supPort of the research program' Nonmember companies will be asked to contrillute about $3,500 a year. The program has been planned by the National Oak Wilt Research Committee, comprised of representatives of major industry users of oak. Noted plant patholo- ' gists of several universities and the U' S. Department of Agriculture will 'cooperate in the studies, which will supplement those in progress for several years at various institutions.

Milton Craft, president of Chapman and Dewey Lumber Co., Memphis, was re-elected president of the Association and T. C. I\Iatthews of the M. B. Farrin Lumber Co., Cincinnati, O., was named to a second term as vice-president' Willins was reelected secretary-treasurer.

Expanded representation on the board of directors was recommended because of the recent growth of the Association. Membership now includes 77 companies, which account for approximately 75 per cent of the hardwood flooring capacity in the Soutl.rern and Appalachian areas'

Named to the new posts and to two vacancies on the board were: Lee Robinson, Mobile River Saw Mill Co'' Mobile, Ala.; George Rozzell, E. A. Stewart Lumber Co', Texarkana, Tex.; V. A. Sells, Long-Bell Lumber Co', Kansas City, Mo.; D. L. Fair, Jr., D' L. Fair Lumber Co', Louisville, Miss.; and J. V. Cloud, Cloud Oak Flooring Co', Springfield, Mo.

Re-elected to the board, in addition to President Craft and Vice-President Matthews, were: Allen Harris. Jr', Harris Manufacturing Co., Johnson City, Tenn., J.

Bruce Co., Memphis, Tenn.

To hetp maintain strong demand for oak flooring in 1951' the Association again will conduct vigorous advertising and publicity Programs directed to lumber dealers, builders, architects and the general public.
