As railroacls penctrated the ncrv country, lumber yar<ls rverc c:stalrlishc<l to fill the needs ttf early settlcrs. Successful selling of lumber purchased to shelter stacks of huy prompted the partners to abandorr the hav venture ancl start a lumber business.

The compatly was incorllorated in 1.984 as The L<lngIlell I.umber Co. White died trvo years after the company was founded and the tu'o other partners pttrchasecl his intcrest. Headquarters for the company \\ras moved to Kansas City, Mo., in 1891, Long-Bell's first manufacturing plant rvas established at Van lluren, Ark., in 1889, and by the end of World War I. 14 mills were operating in l-ouisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas and California. Total production at the time u'as 500,000,000 board feet annually.

Exporting of lumber to the foreign markets rvas entered into as early as 1903 by Long-Bell. Due to the accessibility of rail facilities to the southcrn mills, exporting rvas first done from Port Arthur, Tex., rvith an export department l;eing established at Beaumont, Tex., in 1912. The department rvas moved to Longview, Wash., in 1924 and later rnade a part of the general sales department. LongRell was the first company to advertise and market trademarked lumber.

I wiah I'd said this: "If you're too bqsy to laughYou'rc too busy." *

Mark Twain said he didn't think much of a man who could only spell a word *one w*ay. That's tolerance.

A waggiah father gave his Bon a onc dollar bill on his tenth birthday, with a note attached that read, "Hold onto this, son, and who knows? By the time you're twenty-one, it may be worth a dollar."

He also enclosed a little pocm that runs:

"There, there little Dollar-don't cry !

You're not worth your name, I know, You pasis for your face, but you can't keep the pace, That is set by the H.C. of L.-Oh No!

There, there little Dollar, don't cry ! There, there little Dollar, don't cry !

You're doing your best, I know, They're raising my rent about thirty per cent, They've doubled my booze, and doubled -y shoes, The bigger my pay, the more slips away, The more of you come, the more of you go, The more I receive, the less I can show, But you're doing the best you can, I lmow, Don't cry, little Dollar-ion't cry !"

Dr. Edwin Nourse, who was chief economic adviser to President Truman until a few months back when he announced he could no longer go along with the spend and waste program of the Administration, and quit, is now going about the country making speeches on our economic situation. He describes our present financial condition as a "rat race," in which the big pay envelope and the big grocery bill are engaged in a red hot race to see which grows the faster and gets the bigger. He says it is a toss-up so far, one day the pay envelope getting ahead, and the next the fto:.T bill taking the lead.

One of the most publicized men in the United States today is Joseph Bracken Lee, the governor of the State of Utah. Many of the newspaper's and bigger magazines have given him keen attention and generous space. For here we seem to have a most unique character; one of the few remaining American officials who still believes in old style Am,ericanism, and is willing to fight for its survival. He believes in the thrifty, hard-working, independent, courageous, liberty-loving type of American who prevailed in this land of ours up to 1933, but has since that time almost disappeared from public life. He believes in

the American who makes his own way, stands on his own feet, earns hie own living, and is beholden to neither govcrnment nor devil for his support; who takes largesse, and subsidy, and gifts, a1a specrlat privilege from nobody.

He still believelr, as most Americans used to believe before thc philosophy of tax, and spend, and waste, and elect, elect, elect came along, that man gets along in this world, not by an act of Congress, but by his own industry, character, ability, perseverance, ambitions, sticktoitiveness, and courageous love of liberty; and that all government is for i,s to provide a protective framework in which he can live, and work, and produce, and achieve the things he longs for. That, I gather from what I read, is approximately what Governor L*ee,*of*Utah, believes.

And, while he hasn't said so in anything I have read, I imagine he considers that a man who lives as a ward of government and on government bounties, is not far different from the man who leans on some woman for support. The Greeks have i "i-._ for such.

As Time magazine tells it briefly, the federal government discovered that the State of Utah hasn't been accepting and spending her share of government grants and government aids, and thus was out of step with the rest of the nation, so they sent a personal caller to Utah to find out why. In this strange age a man or community that won't accept governr.nent bounty is assumed to have a screw loqse. So the federal man called on Governor Lee, and told him that Washington was worried about his lack of cooperation with the federal money pump that has attained such almost universal popularity. Governor Lee listened, then asked how old the caller was. When he replied that he was 31, the Governor said to him, "Young man, it's too bad you never 1"._U * a free country."

The youthful ambassador got red-faced, and declared that he does live in a free country now. And the Governor said that he could recall when his paycheck was his own, and he could spend it as he liked, and asked the visitor, "Can you spend YO,UR paycheck as you like?" The bewildered budget man left. Ilere was a language that, at his age, he could not understand, for ever since he has been a grown man it has been like it is now, and he had never known what it is like to do as he pleased with his income, or make any honest contract he*desired with his fellow man.

Governor Lee believes in honest, thrifty, courageous, intelligent government for both Utah and the United States, is trying to give Utah such government, and is

HOO-HOO CIUB NO. 3% Oqklqnd, Colifornio

doing hir bert to diccouragc thc other lrind at Warhington. A veteran of World War One, he aayr, "I favor all poosible help to injurcd vetcran!, but those who rcturned without physical or mental damage rhould deem it a privilege to have perved their country." And with regard to taxing the rest of the nation to pour unearned money into the poclcets of the farmere, he says, "f would ray to the farmers, ,The price of Freedom is thc same to you as it is to everyone else-a littlc hardship wh*en things are adverge."'

He thunders against federal aid to education, and slaehed the budget of the University of Utah to the bone. Hc eays if it is necessary to close every school in the United States for a year to save the United States government-then CLOSE THEM. "f sometimes think," he is quoted as saying, "that f am more afraid of the spenders in Washington than I am of the Russians." George Wa,lhington, were he here, would agree, I have no doubt, with that Btatement; so would J"UXt.ol, and Lincoln, and Franklin.

So, in fact, would the thinking men of the entire nation today. Too bad that President Truman, running around the country as he is doing today proclaiming the soundness of his Fair Deal and New Deal philosophy, doesn't understand that the thinking people of this country are far more afraid of his Washington spenders and wasters and subsidizers than they are of Joe Stalin and his gang. But such is a fact; a very provable fact. Mr. Truman has been telling the people from back platforms on this ,,nonpolitical" journey of his, that he comes to them to give them the facts. But the above stated fact-the biggest fact on earth today, is one he fails to mention.

Captain Eddie nicte'uictl, il -"r.ing lots of speeches; very strong, heartening speeches, pleading for a strong America. But he turns his thumbs down entirely on one of our foreign activities that is costing us hundreds of millions of dollars. He thinks that for us to arm the nations of Western Europe is very unwipe, and very impractical. He says that Russia could sweep over Europe with her armed might in just about the time it takes to tell it, and that if she does, all the guns and planes and bullets we are sending over there, will be turned in our direction, just as they have been before. We would not only be out the huge cost of arming Europe, but would have armed the Soviet at no cost to them. Capt. Rickenbacker is in position to speak intelligently on that subject, and he makes his opinions very, very plain. ***

He points to the fact that the Chinese Communi,sts now have in their possession huge quantities of arms that we sent to the Nationalist forces in China, all of which are now being used in their further subjugation of China. He could likewise recall what we did toward arming Japan previous to World War Two. Right up to the time the Japs murdered Pearl Harbor, a constant line of ships was crossing the Pacific from the United States to Japan, carrying scrap iron and other war-making materials, which were soon to be used to shoot down our American youth in uniform.

The other day I talked a" : ,rJ*un"n., reporter recently

back from the Oricnt, who gave witnen to lome of the thingr Capt. Rickenbacker gaid. Hc told of bcing in Shanghai when the Nationalirt forcer had been backed up to that point, ready to jump acrott the water to Formora. And, he said, the warehoures of Shanghai were heaped high with munitions of war which the United States had shipped to the Nationalists, and now about to fall into Communist hands. And the hell of it wap, he said, that even then, with China loet to the Nationalists and entirely in the hands of the Commies, shipe were steadily arriving in Shanghai from the Unitcd States, bcaring.grcat quantities of costly materials of war, paid for by the American taxpayers. The cause was lost. Thc people to whom we had consigned the materials were gone. But the stuff kept right on arriving. Such thingB seem incredible, if they hadn't happened so many times in so many ways. And this report, and others like it, lend strength to the contention of Captain Eddie, that arming Europe with guns that could be taken by Russia like taking candy from a baby-isn,t exactly smart.

Much talk about our recognizing the Chinese Communist Government. Which caused one of my friends to remark that if George Washington were to drop into the city of Washington today, he'd have a tough job recognizing OUR government.

lfl94 with the establishment of a buying office in Tacorrra, Wash, The office continued in operati()n until 1912. Purp<lse was to secure shingles and fir lumber for tlre Long-Ifcll tra<te.

Manufacturing on thc l)acific Coast was bcgun lry Long-Bell in 1904 rvith the purchase of stock in the Weerl I.umber Co., at Weed, Calif. A greater interest was purchased in the northern Calif<lrnia concern from time tr> time and in 1916 controlling interest was ;rccluired. The Weed divisi<ln <lf l-ong-llell lras grorvn to become one of thc leading f)onderosa Pine manufacturing plants on the West coast. The plant is completely integrated rvith all ,rf the log bcing utilized. I.unrber plyrvood, sash and doors, and box material are the principal products. Sander dust from the many drummcd sanding nrachines is collected and sold to a plastics manufacturer.

A vast tract of the nation's best old growth of Dotrglas Fir timber rvas purchased in Cou'litz and Lewis counties of Washirrgton in 1920 and inrnrediate steps \\'ere taken to devekrll thc largcst lumllering operation ever undertaken. Constrtrction of the City of Longvierv rvas started in 1922. to provide hornes for the workers in the giant plant, and two years later the model city of 5,000 residents was dedicated by the company's founder, R. A. I-ong.

The rvorld's largest sarvmill was built in Longview, located at the confluence of the Cowlitz and Columbia rivers. Another mill was completed in 192(t and the total capacity of the two mills is one million board feet for each eight hours of operation.

The city of l-ongview was named after R. A. Long. It was his <lesire to build a model city for his orvn employees and those of other industrial firms he was sure would locate in the deep water inland port city he had created. I{e employed leading city planners to lay out the model city and the entire nrunicipality was blue printed before the first survey stake was driven.

Today I-ongview is a famous example of modern city planning. It has a population of more than 20,000, with another 10,000 living in suburban and nearby areas.

Wood preservation was first recognized by Long-Bell in 1916 rvith the establishment of a plant at Shreveporr. La. It produced treated Southern Pine paving blocks which rvere ordered by many of the larger eastern metropolitan centers. Later poles, posts, and pilings tvere given preservative treatment. Preservative plants arc: operated today at DeRidder, La., Joplin, Mo., Weed, Calif., and Longview.

Reforestation of cutover lands u'as first given stucly by Long-Bell in 1923. A creu,' of foresters studied the cutover lands of Louisiana and eastern Texas and then established a nursery to grow trees for hand planting in cutover areas. The practice shifted to the northwest in 1925 and many acres of trees were planted in the Ryderwood area to bring on a second crop. Today in both Washington and Louisiana the results of the plantings may be seen as the trees grow in rows over many acres of land.

Thus Long-Bell became one of the early pioneers in reforestation of cutover lands.

Ad<litiorral nrlnuf:lcturing plarrts rvcrc establislred in the West in thc carly tlrirtics. .\ mill was ot)crated in Klamath Falls, ()rc., arrd l)orris, Calif., to harvest a stand of Iton<lcrosa Itirrc l)u:'chilsc(l scvcrnl yetrs carlier, I\lanufrcturing llroprcrtics rvcrc purchased at Vaughn :rrr<l Austa, ()rc, Shortly after \\lorl<l W:rr I[, and the c:rllital stock of the (iar<lincr l,urrrbcr (1r., rvith mills at ( iarrliner :rrr<l l{ccdsport, ()rc., rvas purchascd in 1948. Southcrrr nrills are to<lay located at Quitrnan, Miss., and Sheridan, Ark. A hardrvrxr<l flooring factory is at DeItiddcr, La., ancl a glazing plant opcrated at Fort Smith, Ark.

Frorrr Long-llcll factories come nrany consumer items under the heading of lunrber products. The factory at l,ongview produces kitchen cabinets, bunk beds, unpainted furttitttre, lawn clrairs and many other itcms from Douglas Fir. The Weed division factory procluces I'onderosa Pine window sash and doors, box material and many wooden parts used lly other manufacturers. Winclorv and door frames are manufactured from Douglas Fir and Ponderosa l'ine. Plywoocl is also another product of the Weed division.

Outstanding in thc l-ong-llell organization is the length of service of its many errrployces. Men with 25 or 30 years of continuous service are numerous with several 50 year men in the organization. Iimployees are honored on service anniversaries rvith a service pin. Long-Bell employs 6500 men and rvomen.

Officers of the company today include: J. M. White, president, I-ongview, Wash.; R. P. Combs, vice president, Kansas City, Mo.; L. G. Everitt, vice president, Kansas City, Mo.; E. H. Ffouston, vice president, Kansas City, Mo., and I-ongview, Wash.; J. D. Leland, vice president, Longview, Wash.; R. F. trIorse, vice president, Longview, Wash.; L. C.

American Wood Preservers' Association Holdg Annual Meetingat Hougton

Fred W. Gottrcbsll Ebctod Proddont

The forty-sixth annual meeting of the American Wood I)rcscrvers' Association was held in the I{ice FIotel, Ilotrstorr, Texas, April 25-27. The convention was one of the largest in the history of the association, attende<l by n'rore than 500 officials of the wood preserving industry, lumbermen, engineers, and railroad and utility officers representing U. S. firms as rvell as several frtreign companies.

Neu'ly elected officers in the association are: Fred W. Gottschalk, technical director, American Lumber & Treating Co., president, succeeding J. S. Giddings, Santa Fe llailrvay, Topeka, Kansas; W. R. Yeager, inspection engineer, Western I'llectric Co., first vice-president; R' H. Bescher, manager, Technical l)epartnrent, Koppers Co., second vice president; and H. 1.. Dawson, secretarytreasurer. Members of the Executive Committee are I'. I). 13rentlinger, forester, Pennsylvania Railroad Co., G. Il. Campbell, Tie and Timlter Agent, Missouri I)acific Itailroacl Co., I). L. Lindsley, Wood Treating Chemicals Co., (i. lt. I\{cGough, su1>erintendent, llond ll:r-rs. Co., I. C. Nliller, vice president, T. J. I\foss Tie Co., J. F. ltenfro, vicc president, Taylor Colquitt Co., C. S. Sizemore, assistant manager, Forest ]'roducts Bureau, Illinois Central System, and J. S. Giddings, assistant manager, treating 1>lants, Santa Fe Railr'vay. The 1951 convention city will be Chicago, Illinois.

The fact that accepted standards of creosotes have widely varied chemical analyses has prompted a cooperative test b1' several members of the association to determine the

effcct of these variations on the wood prcscrvation value of creosotc. It rvas ann<lunced to the association that tl-re tests; put on a continuing, klng-term llasis, are already runclcrrvay. The prograrn is under the general dierction of the Iiorest I'roclucts Laboratory for land installations and of the William Ii. Clapp Laboratorics for marine test installations. Cooperatirrg companies arc the Barrett Division of the Allicd Chernical & I)yc Corp., Rernuth Lembcke Co., Koppers Co., and the llell Telephone l-aboratories.

Pressure-treatrnent by standard rvoocl preservatives has no adverse effect on the durability of plywood bonds. This rvas the conclusion dravvn from a paper presented by J. C). Blerv ancl W. L. C)lson, technologists of the Forest Products I-aboratory. In fact, the six year laboratory study of pressure-treated plywood samples gave good indication that both oil preservatives and salt-type preservatives actually show a tenclency to increase the <lurability of thc plywood adhesives.

During the meeting, mernbers of the association revierved the preliminary statistics rep()rt on the total production of treated u'ood during 1949. This report, prepared by Henry B. Steer of the U. S. Division of Forest liconomics, noted a 4 per cent decrease in 1949 volume frorn 19.18. Oil prescrvatives declined only slightly but there was a 33/o drolt in the use of solid preservatives. Pentachlorophenol an<l chromated zinc chloride showed the sharpest decrease, dropping approximately 1,000,000 and 1,500,000 pounds respectivbly during 1949. The decline in railroad and public utility construction programs during the last year accounted for mnch of the decrease in treated volume.

4,500,000 New Homes Added In U.S. Since \(/ar

Washington, D. C., May l4-More than 4,500,000 nerv homes have been added to the national housing supply since the end of the war, including dwellings norv under construction, C. B. Sweet, president of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, stated Saturday.

"The total, which includes 720,M ne'iv farm homes, rneans that the supply of housing in this country has increased about one-eighth in the S-year period." Mr. Su'eet said.

"The Ilureau of Labor Statistics estimates that non-farm housing starts again broke all monthly records during April, wl-rer-r 12(r,000 non-farm units were put under construction, reflects a steadily growing appreciation by the public of the values and comforts found in today's nerv homes.

"Retail materials dealers across the country report that, while the supply of some materials has become tight, because of the unprecedented home building volume and the large amount of public construction, there should be a sufficient supply of building products to permit indefinite continuation of the high rate of housing starts, if the demand holds up.

"Dealer inventories of certain premium grades of lumber, gypsum board and lath, and various specialties are at lorv levels in some sections, but production is at record levels in most cases and can be increased if the demand is maintained."

That'c Whcn She Quit Him

Allen Shivers, thc preeent Governor of the State of Texas, a splendid apeaker and atory-teller, makes excellent use of a famous Southern story in his speech-making as he travels about the Lone Star State.

He tells about Aunt Mandy, a fervently religious col' ored woman, who sat in the midst of the congregation one Sunday morning, listening to the preacher exhort and ex' postulate on the subject of sin, A most impressionable listener, Aunt Mandy never failed to shout out her approval when the preacher hit an especially strong note. "Amen, Preachah t" she would call, or, "Bless de Lawd, Pahson !" would be her fervent response when his oratorical shafts struck home. None in the congregation was more vocally helpful to the speaker than she.

He talked about the sin of murder, of fighting, of stealing, of drinking, of trouble-making and sin-making generally, and all the while Aunt Mandy's voice cheered him on. Then, he said:

"An' now, brethen, Ah'm fixin' to rassel wid de sin of snuff-dippin'."

Instantly Aunt Mandy half-rose to her feet in her complete disapproval. "Listen at him l" she grumbled so that all about her might hear, "He's quit preachin', an' gone to meddlin."

NLMA Holds Sprins Meetinss

Some 150 representatives of the lumber industry gathered in Washington, D. C. May 2-5 for the spring meetings of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association. The 4-day midyear meeting included business sessions of the board of directors and standing committees of the Association.

President H. M. Seaman presided at the opening meeting when two new presidents of regional associations were designated as regional vice presidents of NLMA. They are G. H. King, King Lumber Industries, Rouge, La., newly named president of the Southern Hardrvood producers, Inc.; and E. O. Lightsey, Lightsey Brothers, Miley, S.

Patchen, Jamestown Veneer & Plywood Corp., Jamestown, N. Y.; Milton Craft, Chapman-Dewey Lumber Co., Memphis, Tenn.; and E. L. Kurth, Angelina County Lumber Co., Keltys, Texas.

R. A. Colgan, Jr., executive vice president, and other staff members presented brief progress reports on the work being carried on by National.

A. J. Glassow, past president of NLMA, introduced Senator Guy Cordon of Oregon at a luncheon meeting following the opening session. Senator Cordon oresented NLMA's annual Junior Achievement arvard to Bernard Chabala, 16 year old president of a Chicago teen age group that makes and markets handsome personalized bookends of black walnut.

In his remarks to the lumbermen, Senator Cordon said that every efficient business, including Government, must be run "in the black." He pointed to the enormous deficit under which the Federal Government is now operating and called upon the lumber industry to help bring back the businesslike operation of our Government.

At the close of the 4-day meeting, the board of directors passed In Memoriam resolutions for: H. K. Brooks, George Cornwall, Ben R. Ellis, E. A. Frost, R. W. Fullerton and C. C. Sheppard. All of these men were well known and long active in lumber industry circles.

In addition to the business sessions, attending lumbermen toured the laboratories of the Timber Engineering Company, NLMA affiliate, and observed the research and product development work being done there.

Wegtern Door & Sash Co. Remodelg Oflace

Western Door & Sash Co. recently completed the remodeling and modernization of their offices at their Oakland plant, 5th & Cypress Streets. It can be said here that this is a very fine job, and is worth a visit by any lumber dealer to see what can be accomplished by intelligent planning, and the use of some of the many beautiful hardwood plyrvoods that are available.

Unselected birch paneling rvas used througl-rout on both floors, with new office furniture in soft toned oak to match.

The picture shows the main floor rvith built-in birch counter, and a series of offices on the right, the end one of which is occupied by H. Truxton Jones, sales manager. Another is occupied by Doug Cook, vice president in charge of estimating.

Upstairs generous space has been alloted to the bookkeeping and accounting department. Mrs. Dowse, secretary-treasurer of the company, has privats office space here in one corner.

The private office of the p:esident, Joe Z. Todd, is panelcd in Philippine Mahogany.

The salesmen's or customers' room is something that has long been needed, and will be used frequently.

There is also an employees' conference room, furnished with a built-in refrigerator and hot plate for the preparation of lunches.

Throughout both floors Simpson's Noisemaster acoustical tile is used on the ceilings. This has already been praised by the staff for its elficient sound control. Another feature of this sound-conditioning material is its high light reflection without glare.

Fluorescent positive lighting, the latest in this type, gives steady illuminaton and adds to the staff's comfort ar-rd efficiency. The heating is thermostatically controlled.

Vice President John L. Todd, who retired a couple of years ago, visits the office two or three times a week, and has already put his okay on the remodeling rvork. Mr

Indiana Taxpayer lfantg Subridy for Rocking Chairs

Hon. Earl Wilson, U. S. Congressman from Indiana, recently got a letter from a constituent, whi,ch hc placed in the Congressional Record dated April 6, 1950. It appears on Page A2775. Seymour, Indiana, March 25, 1950.

Dear Mr. Wilson:

I am in the furniture business and am rvriting this letter to request that you obtain for me a subsidy on our platform rockers. We are now making about a thousand a year and are eager to step this production up to 50,000 as soon as possible. With so many people in this country getting rocking-chair money, we feel that the market is unlimited for our product. Since you are voting money for potatoes, cotton, tobacco, railroads, aviation, and many other industries, I see no reason why we in the furniture business should be slighted.

Now, we would like a guaranteed price of $50 each for these rockers. In the event that lve are unable to sell all of them, we will arrange to burn them right here at the factory rather than go to the expense of shipping them somewhere else to be destroyed. I notice that you paid $2.90 a bag for potatoes in Maine and then shipped them to Chicago, which raised the cost to $4 a bag, and then sold them to farmers for 1 cent a bag. That sort of thing is pretty expensive, so we will gladly arrange to destroy anv surplus of our rockers right at the factory.

Please let me hear from you as soon as possible regarding the above-mentioned rocker prog'ram, as we are eager to get the Government checks rolling in. Yours most respectfully, Henry Bolling.

NRLDA Board of Directors

Meets in Washington

C. B. 9woot Proridont

A cornprehensive economic study of the retail lumber industry, aggressive promotion of the open-end mortgage, and ;r sharpened-up public relations program are among the important developments arising from the semi-annual rneeting of the board of directors of the National Retail Lurrrber Dealers Association held in Washington, D' C', early in May.

The attendance was excellent, and the directors showed a keen interest in every phase of the proceedings'

NRI-DA President C. B. Sweet in his opening and closing remarks to the board said he was highly gratified to find complete harmony and enthusiasm regarding the National's programs and objectives. He said he sensed also a growing recognition of the fact that the industry's problems in Washington - at the seat of government - are constantly increasing in scope and complexity and expressed thc personal opinion that the National is coping with those problems most effectively.

'

"Our three-day meeting has convinced me that the retail lumber dealers are thoroughly arvake to their problcms and alive to the potentials of their industry," he said.

"The tone of confidence which one finds among the dealers, accompanied by a determination that the industry must emphasize the overall importance of the function it performs betrveen producer and consumer, is most encouraging."

New developments and reports on accomplishment in the fields of, educatior.r, materials handling, research, legislation, and governmental relations also were covered in detail, together n'ith the proposal to prepare a product data book for dealers.

There was considerable discussion of the effect of the 4-rl per cent FHA interest rate on Section 8 loans, witl-r n-rany of the executive officers of the State and Regional Associations expressing the fear that the reduced rate may act as a deterrent to lorv-cost housing. It was agreed that the situation luould be watched closely, so that the National can advise Housing Administrator Foley and urge remedial action if banks and financing institutions demonstrate that the 4-rl per cent loans are not attractive to them.

The potentialities of the open-end nlorgage rvere explained and it rvas clecided that the National will participate actively in developing and promoting the plan as a means of encouraging a greatly increased volume of home modern-

ization and repair work. As a first step ,various building industry groups are preparing to condtrct a thorough study of the legal aspects of the open-end mortgage, state by state, and to issue a brochure explaining in detail how the plan works, how to use it effectively, and how to sell it to home owners,

The National staff was instructed to proceed promply with plans for a study of building materiats and related products distribution practices, with emphasis upon the organization, services, and functions of the retail lumber industry.

Other aspects of distribution, such as manufacturer, wholesaler, jobber and other selling organizations servicing the dealers, the construction industry and the consumer to be developed cooperatively and through later studies.

The objective of the study is to provide a thorough and factual picture of the place and position of the lumber and building materials distributor in the building economy of America and to assist the organized irrdustry in improving its present position.

In recommending the study, H. R. Northup, the National's executive vice-president, said that the organized retail Iumber industry, over a period of years, has been woefully lacking in its ability to produce coordinated, correlated statistics as to the scope, operation and functions of the industry.

"fnstances where the availabilty of this type of information would have been most helpful occurred some years ago at the time so-called chain store legislation rvas being agitated," he explained. "Again in war time such statistics would have been tremendously helpful in dealing with OPA, the War Production Board, and the other agencies of government controlling distribution, sale and use of commodities. Today the National Security Resources Board, in planning the control of industry in the event of another war, 'could be more intelligently approached were more adequate statistics available.

"fn the field of economic research, the current agitation for the reduction of housing and all construction costs bids fair to put the government in the business of making economic studies of all industries involved in construction in an attempt to establish cost relationships from the completed house back to the forests, mines, and the fields. It is imperative that we have reliable facts and figures of

Russell Norvels, chairman of the Product Data Subconrmittee of the Joint l)ealer-Manufacturer Corrdinating Committee, told the board that a good deal of preliminary rvork haS been done on the proposal to issue a product <lata book for use on dealers' counters. The sulrcommittee met with a group of manufacturers immediately after the closc of the semi-annual meeting and voted to take steps tr.r determine how many manufacturers would be interested in providing suitable data in standard form for a product book. Methods of financing the project and of offering )he book to dealers also were discussed.

The Public Relations Committee reported that the National's public relations program has been restudied and that a new streamlined program had been adopted. Acting Chairman Robert A. Jones stated that the new program would be aimed specifically at promoting the National's major objectives and that it would employ every available means of (1) protecting the interests of dealers and of private enterprise in general, (2) enhancing the standing and prestige of the retail lumber industry, (3) increasing the denrand for nraterials, and (4) helping to maintain ancl strengthen Association effortNational, State and Regionalin the retail lumber industry.

Among the principal features of the public relations program are the issuance of a Public Relations Manual to aid individual dealers in improving and protecting their own public relations and tlre relations of the industry as a rvhole ; the issuance of a series of pamphlets, devoted to housing matters, taxation, and dealer service, which not only can be distributed to the public, but also will serve as the basis for speeches, radio talks, advertising copy, and news releases.

To supplement the publicity efforts of the National, a committee of Minute Men will be formed, with the aid of the executive offrcers of the State and Regional Associations. Press releases will be furnishel to the Minute Men for release to their own local newspapers, so as to throw the support of individual dealers behind the objectives of the industry. They also will receive speeches and other public relations material.

Mr. Northup summed up the objectives of the public relations program by stating that it would continuously tell the public about the high standards of the industry and the increasing services it is performing in the public in-

terest and would use every available means of selling the industry's point of view to the public as a means of enlisting strong public support for the industry's viewpoints.

It was announced that NItLI)A rvill rvork with the National Association of Honte Builders and the National Association of Real Iistate lloards in promoting National Home Week next fall, and that the National will prepare a comptete plan suggesting how lumber dealers can tie directly into the program in each locality.

Clarence Thompson, chairman, reporting for the Lumber Dealers Research Council, said that a highly interesting and valuallle report on the space study being conducted by the Small Homes Council of the University of Illinois would be forthcoming soon.

Following the announcement that he had brought new honors to himself and his industry by virtue of his election to the board of directors of the Clrantber of Commerce of the U. S., past President Norman Mason appraised tlre rvork of the Iluilding Itesearch Advisory lJoard, stating that BRAB's research program was well under rvay and that it promised to llring tangible results for every lrranch of the building industry.

The Materials Handling Committee made a comprehensive report on the studies which it has under way. Chairman James F. Mack, presented a report on straddle trucks and W. B. Kennedy, Jr., analyzed the advantages of flat bed trucks. The committee also announced that it is ready to issue to dealers an 8-page study entitlecl, "Packaging Cuts Costs in Retail Lumber Handling."

The Iiducational Committee held an evening meeting during the 3-day session, with Chairman W. C. Bell presiding. After reviewing the encouraging progress of the 3-day courses, the committee decided to meet in Chicago during July to work out plans for increasing attendance at the courses during the next school year and to explore the desirability of conducting some forme of management training for executives of retail lumber companies.

Chairman Bell also told the board that the "Step Up Selling" films were being rvidely used, not only in the 30-day course, but also in district meetings around the country and by individual dealers and said the program had met with fine reception.

W. A. Barksdale, treasurer, reported that the National's finances are in sottnd shape and submitted a complete finan,cial statement.

NRLDA Secretary Edward II. Libbey explained the

Pirqtes

By DorothY Foster Brown

Old men, bold men, weather-worn and wiae; Hard men, gcarrcd men, with dcvils in their eycr; Mad men, bad men, cursing at the skies, Underneath thc Jolly Rogcr.

Some art broken soldiers that the war set frce; Somc are thicves or murderers of high or low degree; Some are tarnished gentlemen, drifting out to FeaUndcrneath the Jolly Roger.

Mean men, keen men, cynical and slY; Rough men, tough men, quick to laugh or die; Sea mcn, free men, cruising till they dieUnderneath the Jolly Roger.

Some are slashed to pieces in the close-packed fight; Some are dirked while sleeping, in the hot, black night; Some are left to swing aloft-in all men's sightUnderneath the Jolly Roger.

A Pest

A pessimist is a gloomy, hopeless sort of individual who piles up in his imagination, all of hi's past troubles; throws on that heap of adversity and distress all of his present perplexities, and then, through a mental trick of the melancholy mind, manages to add to all of that his anticipated vexations, and there you have a load no man can carry. The pessimist is particularly happy when he can persuade others to join him in his pitiable, wretched mental condition.

Whcrt? Not AnY?

Once upon a time, so the old story goes, the fence between heaven and hell broke down, so St. Peter said to Satan:

"Some of the toughs in your section must have broken this fence down, and I expect you to have it fixed at once."

Satan grinned in Satanic fashion, and said:

"Sorry, Pete, but you'll have to fix your own fence."

"If you don't," said St. Peter, "I shall certainly sue you."

"Oh, yeah?" replied Satan. "Where are you going to get a lawyer?"

Rufus, a nesro

-,:ti1i:'T::;:

courted thc widow Watts while shc bent industriously over the wash-tub' His remarkF got very warm' and finally he "agted" her to marry him.

"IE you eho you lovce me?" aeked thc widow.

"Yes8um," said Rufus, "Ah sho ig gho."

The widow studicd the matter over. He had grown 8o suddenly intcrested in marrying that it just didn't look right, since he had shown no such interest before' A thought struck her, and she turned and fixed her dark swain with a calculating eye, and asked:

"Rufus, you ain't los' you job, is you?"

Womcrn

She's an angel in truttr, a demon in 6ction, A woman's the greatest of all contradictions; Afraid of a cockroach, she'll scream at a mou,se' But she'll tackle a husband as big as a house. She'll take him for better, she'll take him for worse, She'll split his head open, and then be his nurse. And when he is well and can get out of bed. She'll pick up a teapot and throw at his head. She's faithful, deceitful, keen sighted, and blind, She's crafty, she's pimple, she's cruel, she's kind. She'll lift a man up, she'll cast a man down, She'll make him her hero, her ruler, her clown; You fancy she's this, but you find that she's that, She'll play like a kitten, and fight like a cat; In the morning she does, in the evening she don't. And you're always expecting she will when she won't.

Thcrnklul For Assistcnce

Two old women in Scotland were di,scussing the late war.

"Ay"," said one, "it's sad tae think o' a' the lives lost an' the teerible deestruction o' property."

"It is that." said the other; "but there's twa things aboot the war that gies me a lot o' comfort."

"Aye?" queried the other. "And what micht the twa things be?"

"Weel," said the first, "the first is-we licked them."

"And the ither?" asked her friend.

"The ither is the grand help we got frae England."
