Western Pine Lumber Inspectors Hold Grade Meetins
Spokane, Washington, January 1l-Western Pine Association lumber inspectors, representing more than 25 years of pine experience per man (12 years of which were in the service of the Association), got together in this city during the first week of January for a thorough discussion of pine lumber grades. These meetings serve to emphasize the importance attracted to grading by the Western pine industry to insure close and uniformly graded shipments from member mills.
To reduce even the minor variations of grade inspection due to individual differences of interpretation of the standard grading rules, these helpful discussions among the inspectors are further aided in the Western pine region by the practice of rotating inspectors in their calls on the mills, and in returning to mill duty, every four months, the men on eastern assignments, who handle reinspections and grademarking in consuming territories.
The inspectors shown in the picture (from left to right) are: A. O. Lund, Chief Inspector Vern Johnson, Ray Ballantyne, Thomas A. Sandoe, C. A. Luce, A. E. Johnson, J. W. Stewart, Irving Dunn, August Lindstrom, Reed Pierce, Lee Moffett and Nelson Cole.
