Price Ruling on Dry Redwood Timbers

Dry Redwood timbers in the smaller sizes once agairr may be sold at maximum prices of. $26 per 1,000 boaril feet higher than green timbers, the Office of price Administration announced.

On March 30, amendment No. 2 to maximum price regulation No. 253 (Redwood lumber and millwork) was issued, and the amendment inadvertently removed the additions to prices for dry timbers of all sizes.

"It had been the intention of amendment No. 2 to eliminate the additions for dry timbers on sizes larger than 6 by 8 inches because in actual practice the industry does not dry timbers larger than 6 by 8,', OpA said. .,Hbwever, smaller timbers are sometimes ordered to be furnished in dry condition, and the allowance of an addition for the drying should be maintained."

Amendment No. 4 is now issued, restoring the $26 addi_ tions for various lengths of Redwood timbers 5 by 5 inches. 6 by 6 inches, and 6 by 8 inches.
