Addtional Douglas Fir Price Changes

Washington, D. C., May 4-To prevent lumber mills from continuing to add extra charges in pricing Douglas fir lumber except where the additional charges are warranted. three new restrictions on the use of extras were announced today by the Office of Price Administration.

Today's action, effective May 4, 1945, will reduce the cost of Douglas fir lumber an average of from one to two per cent, OPA said. It includes:

1. Reducing the number of grades to which grain specifications may be added and reducing the premiums for grain specifications in several instances. Extra charges for 75 per cent heartwood and for square edge, formerly permitted, are .eliminated.

2. Limiting the use of the maximum prices provided for certain industrial grades of Douglas fir to direct mill shipments with final delivery to historical users of such grades. This limits the use of maximum prices fixed for barge framing, barge planking and decking, ship plank and scaffold plank to sales to shipyard operators, ship and barge builders and repairers. It also restricts the use of ceiling prices for ladder stock to sales made to manufacturers of ladders. Maximum prices for these grades no longer can be charged in sales to retail lumber yards.

3. Limiting the number of grades in a combined shipment of any one size of the same species to seven grades unless specific approval is obtained from OPA.

OPA also added a penalty for the failure of mills to separate or designate grades by stipulating that when mixed grades are shipped without separation or identification, they may not be priced above the ceiling price for the respective sizes of the lorvest grade listed in thb order or invoice.

Today's action also provides that if no grade is desig-

nated on the invoice, the price of the entire shipment must not exceed $15 per thousand board measure.

When exceptions to the limitation on the use of grain specifications are believed warranted, a mill may apply.to the OPA Lumber Branch, Washington, D .C., for special pricing action. Similarly, exceptions to the new restriction -on thJ use of special industrial grade prices may be permitted after the prospective buyer applies directly to the OPA Lumber Branch.

Other Pricing Changes

Today's action also increased ceiling prices on dimension Douglai fir lumber and proportionately reduced the maximum prices on most planks and timbers.

Ceiline prices on all srades of dimen

Ceiling prices grades dimension lumber were creased $1.00 per thousand board measure and the extra lncrea charge for Selecl Structural grade was increased from $5.00 to $7.00 per thousand.

Maximum prices for all grades and sizes of planks and small timbers with the exception of Select Structural and No. 4 grades, which remain un'changed, were reduced $1.00 oer thousand board feet.

-

Ceiling prices of 6x6, 6x8, 6x10, 6x12, 8xl0 and 8x12 in all grades,-except Select Structural and No. 4, were reduced 50 cents per thousand board measure. Prices of all othet sizes in all gradgs, except Select Structural and No. 4, were reduced $1.50 per thousand board measure.

The increases and decreases q'ill 2pproximately balance each other, but indirectly the price changes should stimuIate the production of dimensipn lumber, which is in urgent demand for war purposes, OPA said.

Dollar-and-cent ceiling prices we-re also fixed on a few services and specifications that formerlv have been priced on individual aoolications. -

6000 Dwelling Units Assigned Los Angeles County

John E. McGovern, district director, Federal Housing Administration, Los Angeles, has announced the National Housing Agency has assigned to Los Angeles Cohnty a quota for privately-financed construction of new housing under its "H-2" program as follows i

3,000 dwelling units, with a maximum sales price of $2,000 based upon a three bedroom unit. Any other size units to have a maximum sales price in relation to the accommodations proposed.

3,000 dwelling units, with a maximum shelter rent of $6O. 6O0 units are reserved for owner-occupant use.

The number of dwelling units started in successive, 3Oday intervals shall be limited to 1,000 units.

The Los Angeles office will be open at 8 A.M., Monday, May 21, 1945, to receive applications for not to exceed 1,100 units (being llo/o of each 30-day quota.)

Occupancy of H-2 housing is .not restricted to immigrant war workers or to hardship cases or any special group, but is available rvithout eligibility limitations. Owners who construct for their own use and occupancy, and contractors who have a contract to build for an owner who is to occupy the improvement,.will be given first consideration. Inasmuch as this is a continuing program for a six (6) months period, the maximum allocation to any builder will depend upon the number of units which.the builder can start per day, with a maximum permitted of 25 units for the first month. Further approval in subsequent months will be based upon the number of units which the builder has started under approval of the previous month.

Any person desiring to construct dwellings pursuant to this quota, may make application to the FHA office (112 West Ninth Street, Los Angeles 15) on Form WPB 2896, requesting priority assistance to begin construction of a dwelling either for rental, sale, or owner-occuponty.

A "stanclarcl special" item is a selection of l-rardwoocl lumber of special rvidth or length from a standard grade. (Amendment 18 to revised MPR-97 effective Mav l.)

Buildirig by End ol Year Forecast

Portland, Ore., May 7-A War Production Board official told America today it probably can begin building houses, stores, and other lumber products by the end of this year.

J. Phillip Boyd, national \ /PB lumber division director, said the WPB plans the first large scale release of lumber to civilians by September.

Meeting here with western lumber manufacturers, Boyd said restrictions on civilian lumber use would be lifted gradually. Details probably will be announced by August, he said.

(Continued from Page 2)

An addition of $7.50 per carw'as provided for open car loading for a type of lumber ordinarily loaded in boxcars and an extra charge of $6.50 per car authorized for packaging lumber into sling lots or dividing the load into individual parcels. More buyers have been requesting these services recently to facilitate unloading and conserve labor, OPA said. Ceiling prices {or both services are designed only to cover the direct costs.

Mills are authorized by today's action to apply to the Ol)A Lumber Branch, Washington, D. C., for special prices on oallet stock sold on Government contracts and subcontraCts. When these special prices are fixed, they rvill be based on the cost of remanufactnring them from longer stock than is normally required for pallet.

And this I hate-not men, nor flag, nor race, But only War, with its wild, grinning face. God strike it till its eyes be blind as night, And all its members tremble with affright. Oh, let it hear in its death agony, The wail of mothers for their best-loved ones, And on its head

-Joseph Dana Miller.

He could well haye been looking forward to the San Francisco peace conference, when William Morris wrote: "We have committed the Golden Rule to memo,ry; let us now commit it to life. We have preached Brotherhood for centuries; we now need to find a material basis for brotherhood. Government must be made the organ of Fraternity -3 1ye1ffipg-form for comrade-love. Think on this. Work for this." ***

And Edwin Markham might have had the same thought when he wrote: "Forsooth, brothers, fellowship is heaven, and the lack of fellowship is hell; fellowship is life, and the lack of fellowship is death; and the deeds that ye do upon the earth, it is for fellowship's sake that ye do them. Therefore, I bid you not dwell in hell, but in heaven-uDon earth, which is a part of heaven, and forsooth, no foul part." And likewise Markham wrote this mighty verse:

"Come, clear the way then, clear the way; Blind creeds and kings have had their day. Break the dead branches from the path, Our hope is in the aftermath: Our hope is in heroic men, Star-led to build the world again, To this event the ageS ran: Make way for BrotherhoodMake way for Man !"

"I hope the Russians get to Berlin before the Americans and British; they will do a more thorough job; we would be too gentle." How many millions of times has that wish been expressed by Americans ever5rwhere for the past several months? Well, there is one allparently universal wish that certainly came true. And there was certainly a hot

The big shots of the Old World certainly have been coming up "from the ranks" this last generation, haven't they? Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin-all born and raised peasant children. It appears now that the Tartar shoemaker who was the father of Stalin was considerably the most successful sire. In the years that.are to come historians will have copious opportunity to discuss the pranks that Fate plays in human history, by telling about the three Dictators, Joe, and Adolf, and Benito, "1U Tn": happened to them.

Reports for the past two months from our fighting men in Germany state that a very popular song with the soldiers is one entitled "We'll write the last chapter of Mein Kampf." I haven't heard it on this side of the water, but it should be good. And how true. *t<*

History will concede one championship to Hitler; that he was responsible for mo,re deaths than any other individual in all history. And the recent unbeatable proofs that torture unspeakable was meted out to millions, puts him in a class of infamy all by himself. Previously the champion all time killer was generally conceded to be Genghis Khan. But the great Mongol was not a torturer. ffe just wiped them out as fast as he got to them. Before the great Mongol came along the killing championship probably belonged to a couple of Old Testament generals by the names of. Moses and Joshua. According to the Scripture those old boys put to the sword every living thing, men and women, young and old. even the livestock and cattle of their enemies.

We fight not only for the independence of nations, but something far more precious, more glorious-the independence of the individual. That is what we have been fighting for, sacrificing for. We want it to be so that any child of God anywhere on this earth can stand on an equal footing with his fellows; so that he can say-"this is MY air, MY sunshine, MY earth. I have a right to live and hope and aspire and labor and enjoy the fruits of my labor as well as any other individual." We have been fighting for the principle that all men are created equal, and have equal rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That is what this nation has been fiehting-sacrificing-dying for. ***

lContinued from Page 8) ition of Liberty when it declared that "the liberty of one citizen ceases only where the liberty of another citizen commences." Let every human being enjoy his liberty to the utmost, being always certain that it is not at the expense of others. It's a grand thing to protect the rights of others. It's a sublime thing to be owner of yourself, keeping your individual independence, keepirrg the title to yourself in fee simple. To be both just and free is the height of all human ambition. ,<

Liberty is a word hated, by dictators and loathed by power-hunters. Liberty is the blossorn and fruit of justice, the perfume of mercy. Liberty is the seed and soil, the air and light, the dew and rain of p:rogress, love, and joy. Love of Liberty is as old as the love of Life; as old as industry; as old as the idea of property; as old as human love.

*x<*

In this land of Liberty that we call America, has been accomplished all that we call progress; the enfranchisement of man, of labor, the substitution of fine forr impridonment, the establishment of free speech, of the rights of conscience; in short, al! that has tended to the development and civilization of man; all the results of observation, investigation, experience, and free thought. All that man has accomplished for the development of man has been done in the United States*since*1776.

When the founders of this nation established it as the cornerstone of human liberty, they ordained that men should govern men, but that the power to govern should come from the consent of the governed. Therefore they were self-governed, and with no loss of the precious Liberty to which every root and fiber of our original government was dedicated. ***

Concerning the Liberties and Rights of an American citizen, Henry Clay said: "If there be any description of rights which, more than any other, should unite all parties in all quarters of the union, it is unquestiolably the rights of the person. No matter what his vocation, whether he seeks subsistence amid the dangers of the sea, or draws it from the bowels of the earth, or from the humblest occupations of mechanical life-wherever the sacred rights of ap American are threatened-all parties ought to unite and every arm be braced a "j"1""1. his cause."

All the greatness of the United States was created by the merit system. When we forsake that system, we forsake the way to future greatness. The merit system simply means that the man who can think better, work better, and oroduce better than his fellows, will prosper accordingly. "He profits most who serves best." Else how shall we produce the leaders that this great and growing nation needs? ff men and women are to come with minds and deeds to emblazon future generations, they must come-as they have in the past-from people who strive; for striving tempers and strengthens and builds both brain and sinew.

***

Reducing working hours and production toward the van-

ishing point as a means of boosting employment, can be approved only by the hopelessly unintelligent. Idle people are worthless people. Partly idle people, are partly worthless people. Hard work and serious competition make better men and women, produce all really worth while people. F'rom the ranks of the idle come most of our criminals. The Bible says that by the sweat of their brows they shall live; and you will notice that it failed to make an5r exceptions to the rule. Honest work never hurt anyone, but helps everyane. It is the only highway by which men of small means can climb the ladder of success. Without it they must remain below among the faceless masses. It is,from the minds of men who "never worked and never wi[" that the philosophy of fnore pay for less u7e1k-ms1e leisure and less effort-equal pay for all men regardless of the extreme differences in their productive ability-comes. ***

If we are to have a safe translation from war to peace, we must put our trust in men who know business and finance from successful experience, and who have demonstrated the knack of'success in both.

Been reading America" n*a"t a lot lately. And once again I arrive at the same inevitable conclusion that I always have before, namely, that the two great Civil War leaders, Abraham Lincoln and Robert E. Lee were much alike in their greater characteristics. They were different in their personal appearance, Lincoln having been by all accounts an awkward man of rugged countenance, while Lee possessed great manly beauty and grace. But basically they always remind me of one another. Both had those distinguishing marks of all true .greatness-entire lack of personal vanity, egotism, and ambition. Both were liberally endowed with "that spirit that was also in Christ .fesus." Both were gentle, tender, and possessed great humility, as well as nobility of soul. Yet both possessed such immortal courage as is seldom found among mortal men'

Our casualtv lists swell daily. These heroes died for liberty. They died for us. They are at rest. They sleep under the flaq they rendered stainless, under the solemn pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadows of the clouds, careless alike of sunshine or of storm, each in the windowless Palace o,f Rest. Earth may run red with other u731s-fhsy are at peace. fn the midst of battle, in the war of confict they found the serenity of death.

attended our Thirteenth Annual Reveille,

Ceremony at tVilmington Plant

The Wilmington plant of the American Lumber & Treating Co. put into operation on May 1 a new pressure treating cylinder, six feet in diameter and 135 feet in length. This all-welded retort increases the capacity of the plant about twenty per cent.

The ceremony was attended by U. S. Navy officers who addressed the company's employees, congratulating them on their production achievement since Pearl Harbor. "The 'I3ridge to Tokyo' is well on its way, thanks to you men," said Comclr. Edwin F. Keyes, "but there is still a lon$ way to go." lfe reviewed the progress made in the wood preserving industry from the early days in the Northwest when they found that by mopping their timber u'ith gas

tar creosote, then a little known product, they were able to add something to its life, and praised the industry for developing the far more effective pressure creosoting techniques.

Other officers attending were Lieut. Granville J. Phillips and Lieut. E. G. King.

Lieut. Phillips stated the company's Wilmington plant ."has never let us down," and, he told of many locations where the products of this plant were used, some at the very doorstep of Japan. He showed a film which vividly portrayed the Seabees at work under heavy fire, constructing piers, landing strips and bridges which gave evidence of the company's part in the war effort.

Ben Frcnklin's Religion

"Here is my creed. I believe in God, the creator of the universe. 'That He governs it by His providence. That He ought to be worshipped. That the most acceptable service we can render to Him is doing good to His other children. That the soul of man is immortal. and will be treated with justice in another life respecting its conduct in this. These I take to be the fundamental points of all sound religion.

"As to Jesus of Nazareth, I think His system of morals and His religion as He left them to us, the best the world ever saw or is likely to see; but I dpprehend it has received various corrupting changes, and I have some doubt as to His divinity; though it is a question I do not dogmatize upon, having never studied it, and think it needless to busy myself with it now, when I expect soon an opportunity of knowing the truth with less trouble. I see no harm, however, in its being believed, if that belief has the good consequence, as probably it has, of making His doctrines more respected and more observed; especially as I do not perceive that the Supreme takes it amiss, by distinguishing the unbelievers in His government of the world with any peculiar marks of His displeasure.

"I shall only add, respecting myself, that, having €xperienced the Goodness of that Being in conducting me prosperously through a long life, I have no doubt of its continuance in the next, though without the smallest conceit of meriting such goodness.-(Benjamin Franklin.)

Courtesy

If I possessed a shop or store, I'd drive the grouches off my floor, I'd never let some gloomy guy, Offend the folks who came to buy. I'd never keep a boy or clerk, With mental toothache at his work. Nor tret a man who draws my pay Drive customers of mine away.

'The reason people pass one door

To patronize another store, Is not because the busier place Has better silks, or gloves, or lace, Or cheap'er prices, but it lies

In pleasant words and smiling eyes; The only difference, I believe, Is in the treatment folks receive.

Mistaken Identity

"Saya, Tony, I gypa da laundry disa week."

"You gypa da laundry?"

"Sure. Da billa say 'rags-one cent.' And alla it is my swella da undershirt."

Grcce Belore Meals

A little boy was eating luncheon in a home which was conducted with proper regard for religious observances. In his own home there was no such thing, and when the family he was visiting bowed their heads in saying grace before meals, he failed to do so, but looked on wonderingly. The mother of the family said to him:

"Son, doesn't your father say anything before you start to eat?"

FIe answered, "Sure. Ile says 'dig in, kids, but go easy on the butter-it takes twenty red points a pound."'

The Mother

I am the keeper of the flame, That warrr,rs the earth and sky; And I attend the rainbow hues That are so high, so high; I know the magic laws of God, All answers I can tell, I understand the hygiene of Keeping my baby well; I am high priestess, I know all Grave witchcraft I employ; I am the goddess of hearth and home, And mother of my boy.

-Helen Baird la Motte.

The Wcry oI Success

Accept the truth that humanity's continual effort is to multiply good materially. People are always asking for more. Give them what they want, supply their needs, and they turn to you and reward you. Your own supply is increased by increasing the supply of othrers. The more you help distribute, the more comes to you for distribution. Make a reputation for good work in any field, and demands will be made on you for more of that good work. People are always seeking mor'e money, more health, mqre op-' portunity, more companionship-always more of something, They give good will to those who help them get what they want. The way to success is simple. All you do is supply needs.-Thomas Dreier.

Youth crnd Age

da time

The wise man as he grows older, associates more and more with young people. They are the builders of the newer world. They are alive, and are moving forward. Justice F{olmes, then in his nineties, discussed life with a girl of sixteen, and said to her: "f won't refrain from talking about anything because you are too young, if you won't because I'm too old."

Steam and chemical-laden vapors give ceiling and roof structures of wet process plants an awful beating. Ordinary lumber decays and other materials often go to pieces in a hurry. Wolmanlzed Lumber*, wood that's impregnated with Wolman Salts* preservative, is highly resistant to this attack. Its use adds years of service life here.

PBESSUBI IREIIMEIfT does the trick

Driving the preservative deep into the wood, under great pressure in steel retorts, is what does the trick. Protection is there for keeps. The excellent performance oI hundreds of millions of feet oI lumber so treated tesri{ies to the worth of Wolmanized Lumber.
