Redwood has long done some business in the Southwest, and has picked up a great deal in the ldst few months. Redwood siding is particularly suitable for the severe climatic tests of the Southwestern territory, while outside trim is also a good seller. They are stocking Redwood trim and siding in many places in the Southwest and South today that never heard of Redwood up to six months ago, and the thing is increasing.

Urges Tariff

Spokane, Wash., June lO.-Speaking at a meeting of more than 100 business men and legislators in Spokane, Roland H. Hartley, governor of Washington, said that the lumbermen of this country should have the benefit of a protective tariff on Canadian logged timber.

"We are facing hard and unfair competition," he added, "because Britistr Columbia lumbermen are logging their timber with foreign-born laborers and operating a l6-hour day, while we are working on an eight-hour basis.

t'There should be a duty on Canadian timber shipping into the States. And I tell you there is plenty being shipped in.I have seen train loads of Canadian lumber passing through Everett that compelled the power of four engine-' to move them. Still we have no protection against such practice."
