NATIONAL LUMBER MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION PROPOSES EPOCH.MAKING TRADE INNOVATION
Directors lJnanimo'usly Vote in Favor of Putting the Association Financial Guarantee Behind All Grade-Marked V' Lumber Made by Members of the National Trade Extension Group-Lumber to Be Up to GradeMark or the Buyer Gets His Money Back
Washington, February 10.-A determined effort to create a nation-wide consumer preference for lumber of guaran- teed quality has been launched by the Executive Committee of the board of directors of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association through its Trade Extension Department. At its recent meeting in Washington, the Comm:ittee unanimously recommended to the Tiade Extension Committee a sweeping program for grade-marking and trade-marking the lumber made by members of the National Lurnber Trade Extension group.
It is intended to draw a clear line bf distinction for the mutual benefit of users and manufacturers of lumber, between good lumber, well-manufactured, carefully graded and accurately sized under American Lumber Stindard rules, on the one hand, and inferior lumber, poorly manufactured, unseasoned and carelessly graded, bn the other.
-It is-_definitely proposed to put the financial guarantee of the National Lumber Manufacturers Associatidn behind every stick of grade-marked lum,ber from the mills authorized to use the Association trade-mark.
WESTERN PINE ASSOCIATION ELECTS OFFICERS ANDDECIDES ON USE OF PRINTING MACHINE FOR TRADE-MARKING
W. M. Leuthold, president of the Deer Park Lumber Co., Deer Park, Wash., was elected president of the Western Pine Association at the 22nd annual meeting of the association held at Spokane, February 7 and 8. Walter Neils, J. Neils Lumber Co., Libby, Mont. was elected vice-president, and H. K. Brooks, general manager of the BrooksScanlon Lumber Co., Bend, Ore., was re-elected treasurer.
A plan to trade mark lumber produced in the mills of the association was adopted, and it was decided to use for this purpose a printing machine invented by D. R. Tanner, superintendent of the Bowman-Hicks Lumber Co., La Grande, Ore. The marking machines will be installed behind the planers and will print the name of the species, the company trade-mark, the number of the mill and the name of the association on the lumber as it passes through.
Secretary-manag'er A. W. Cooper urged the improvement of merchandizing methods, and advised extension of the work now being done by the association.
