The Flexboard surface, made of asbestos and cement, is tough, strong and abuse-resistant. Fireproof and rodent-proof, it provides a smooth flush surface, which can be left as is or decorated as desired.

Between these Flexboard surfaces is an insulating core of a special impregnated tVeathertite Sheathing.

How Lrumber lrooks

Portland, Oregon, August 16-Lumber production at Douglas fir mills of western Oregon and Washington fell off sharply in July due to holiday shutdowns throughout much of the industry.

H. V. Simpson, executive vice president West Coast Lumbermen's Association, said production for the first seven months is 772 million feet larger than same period last year. Shipments through July still top last year's by 4O9 million feet. July orders held even with Juire, despite the holidays.

'West Coast lumbermen report a gradual tightening in freight car supply, Simpson said, which is becoming more severe as heavy grain shipments increase. He said shipping space is particularly short with only half the space available for lumber shippers from North Pacific to Atlantic ports.

McGoy Planing tflill

The weekly average of West Coast lumber productior, in July was 165,102,000 b,f. or 91.8/o of the 1946-1950 average. Orders averaged 171,839,000 b.f.; shipments 152,780,000 b.f. Weekly averages for June were: Production, 222,43I,W b.f. (123.7% of the 1946-1950 average); orders, 172,333,m b.f.; shipments fr4,496,,000 b.f.

Thirty weeks of 1951 cumulative production, 6,547,285,000 b.f.; thirty weeks of 195Q 5,775,0'26,0ffi b.f.; thirty weeks of 1949, 5,500,481,000 b.f.

How To Obtain Controlled Materials For Reddence Building

Procedures to be followed in obtaining controlled materials for use in residential construction under the amended regulations of the Controlled Materials Plan announced recently by the Nationai Production Authority were described recently by Raymond M. Foley, Administrator of the Housing and Home Finance Agency.

Whereas previously, construction came under CMP only on a permissive basis, the new regulations require that all construction be authorized and controlled materials be obtained under the Controlled Materials Plan beginning with the fourth quarter of 1951.

Under delegation of authority from Manly Fleishmann, Administrator of the National Production Authority, the Housing and Home Finance Agency administers the controls regulating residential construction, both public and private. Mr. Foley, at this time, announced delegation of responsibilities for administration of controls over private construction to the Federal Housing Administration and over public construction to the Public Housing Administration.

The NPA action revoked the basic construction order, M-4, which required Government permission to begin construction of a single family residence containing more than 2,500 square feet of floor space or of an apartment structure of more'than three stories. This order is now replaced by Order M-4A and Direction I to CMP Reg. 6. Even though a builder may have

Ne* Law Cuts Down Payments On Homes

Washington, Aug. 2l-The House unanimously passed and sent to the White House today legislation to lower the dowr.r payment needc-ci to buy a house costing $12,000 or less.

Senate-House conferees yesterday incorporated the crediteasing plan inro a compromise $135,000,000 defense housing bill. The Sen:rte promptly shouted its approval.

Under the "rider" the stiff hous:ng credit restrictions irn^ posed as part of the government's anti-inflation program would be relaxed as follows:

Flouses costing $7000 or less-veterans buying uncler the G'I Bill of Rights henceforth would need only four per cent down payment. Others would need 10 per cent.

$7000-$10,000-GI houses would require six per cent dowlr; othcrs 15 per cent.

$10,000-$12,000 -GI houses would require eight per cent dolvn; others 20 per cent.

For comparison, the Veterans Administration now requires a minimum 15.8 per cent down payment on $12,000 homes. Down payments of. 25,8 per cent are now on both F.H.A. insured and conventional financed housing.

received an authorization to construct under superseded M4, he must now comply with the provisions of the new regulations.

The new regulations prohibit the comryencement ,or continuance of residential construction after September 30, 1951, unless the builder or owner receives an authorized construction schedule and a related allotment of controlled materials or unless the construction requires no more than the quantities of controlled materials obtainable by self-authorization.

In the interim period, August 3 to October 1, builders may, without special permission, start construction or continue construction already started of one-to-four-family. houses, provided that the quantity of controlled materials, including Class A products, needed after September 30, 1951, to complete such construction, does not exceed the amounts which may be obtained under the self-authorization procedure, Mr. Foley explained. While there are no restrictions on the quantity of controlled materials which may be used prior to October 1 in one-to-four-family homes, the use restrictions of NI-4A are effective immediately: These include prohibitions against the use of any aluminum and against certain uses of copper.

During the interim period, August 3 to October 1, builders of multi-unit residential structures need not obtain authorization to begin or continue construction already begun if the total controlled materials required for each structure do not exceed 25 tons of carbon steel and 2,000 pounds of copper and copperbase alloys, and if no aluminum, alloy or stainless steel is required. As in the case of one-to-four-family construction, the use restlictions of M-4A are effective immediately.

Multi-unit residential construction requiring more than these quantities of controlled materials may not be started or continued during this interim period unless specifically authorized after the builder has given the required information on form CMP-4C. Applications for authorization to begin or carry on private construction are to be filed with the nearest local office of the Federal Housing Administration, and those relating to public construction are to be filed with the appropriate regional office of the Public Housing Administration. However, no priority assistance for materials for delivery before October 1, 1951, wilt be available for any such construction.

Beginning with October 1, all residential construction must be specifically authorized, either by self-authorization as in the case of one-to-four-family structures requiring no more than stated quantities of controlled materials, or by an authorized construction schedule and allotment of materials, as in the case of all multi-unit structures.

Builders of one-to-four-family structures are permitted by the new regulations to begin immediately to use the self-authorization procedure in placing orders for controlled materials calling for delivery after September 30, 1951, within the following limits per structure:

Low-Rent Housing 'for Nothing'

Editorial lrom the Los Angeles Times, August 12,1951

In the panorama of public housing, as they call it, which was observed here the other day, there is a little cloud (no bigger than a man's hand of course) which ought to be studied by Los Angeles taxpayers. They should study it because they are going to be stuck with taxes although they have been told that it is a Federal beneficence which will cost them nothing except for sew€r, etc.

The public housing of which we speak is the present project to build 10,000 low-rental units on 11 different sites. These units are to be built with money obtained by bond issues by the Los Angeles Housing Authority-bonds guaranteed by the U. S. Treasury-and they will cost, it is said,9110,000,000, and the bonds will be retired through the low rentals which will be charged for the apartments. It all sounds very pretty. The housing will be almost self-liquidating.

But the thing they don't tell you about is the administration cost of these apartrnents. Whenever the government operates such a project as these housing units it must dispatch a swarm of bureaucrats to oversee the property and the tenants. For instance: the Housing Authority's last report shows that the present overhead cost per public housing unit for management, maintenance, operating services, collection, etc., is $28.05 a month. To this unit cost the Housing Authority adds 68 cents for payment in lieu of taxes to the local government and a '$7.77 debt service charge. The accountants then make an acljustment which is too complicated to describe and come up . with a total cost per apartment of $35.60. And the average rental of the units is $32.32. That's a loss of $3.28 a month on the average unit.

Now when Mayor Bowron eagerly signed the co-operation agreement two years ago it was put out that the Housing Authority would give the city a little something in lieu of taxes. That is to say, the low-rental housing would pay, as private ownership does, for all the services the city provides to citizens, renters or homeowners. But the catch is this: the agreement the Mayor signed says that there shall be payments to the city in lieu of taxes "to the extent that funds are available from income." Where are these funds available from income?

The Federal housing bureaucracy also says in its report that it thinks it can cut down expenses. It expects that its 10,000 low-rental units in Los Angeles will drain off only 919.99 a unit to pay the bureaucrats who will be rushing around to see

that tenants are worthy-voting right, for instance-of having their low rent.

Byron Jones, director of the Montecito Hills fmprovement Association, has some remarks. He calculates that $95,952,000 eventually will be spent on administration costs for the 10,000 Los Angeles units.

"Now," says he, "suppose that instead of paying this $95,952,000 (to) the planners, we took it and erected 10,000 private homes at the cost of 99,595.20 each and made an outright gift of these houses to the people now living in the so-called slums. The slums would be cleared and we could start collecting taxes for the new homes. Certainly $100 a year a home would be reasonable enough for taxes. This would give us $1,000,000 a year for 10,000 homes, or $40,000,000 over the life of the proposed program (40 years). Thus we would be $40,000,000 further ahead ewn if we gave the homes away under private ownership than we would be under the Socialistic plan. The reason this is true is that the $96,000,000 paid for management and other Socialistic overhead not applicable to privately owned homes is simply unproductive water down the rat hole, while the same $96,000,000 invested in private homes would bring a return in the form of taxes."

It follows from Mr. Jones' reasoning that the costs of the 11 housing projects here will be as follows:

l-Principal cost of 10,000 units (911,000 each) $110,000,000

2-Interest at Ztllo amortized over 40 years. . 53,996,000

3-Management-operating overhead 95,952,000

4-Loss in tax receipts 40,000,000

Total Cost $299,949,000

There are some incalculable expenses left out of this table. But it shows that the cost per apartment will be about $30,000 in the 4O-year period. With a rental income of. $32.32 a month per unit you have over the 40 years an income of $155,000,000 and the net loss, to be paid from taxes, therefore, is about $145,000,000.

Mr. Jones calculates that Federal taxes will pay for $44,000,000 of this deficit. The rest will be borne by Los Angeles$40,000,000 of it in tax losses and the rest to be collected $61,000,000, that is.

This is the low-rental housing we arC'getting for nothing from the Federal government.

Projects That Can Be Postponed \(/on't Get Metal Allotments

Washington, D.C.-The National Production Authority says flatly that "no non-essential construction rvhich can be postponed will receive allotments (permission to buy the needed metals) for the fourth quarter of 1951."

This refers to business chances of getting steel, copper, and aluminum after September 30, for starting nerv structrtres or completing those already begun. Projects wili be judged on their individual merits rather than by the classification to which they may fall, as, for example, "defense" or "public works."

The classifications, however, will serve only to determine what applications NPA u,ill look at first. It does not mean that an approved top priority project will be entitled to steel before an approved lorver-priority project. Among approved projects, metals r,i'ill be obtained on a first-comc first-served basis.

Here are those classifications:

CLASS I PRIORITY: Construction projects u'hich "further" the defense effort-like a tank-making plant, a steel n-ri1l, an aluminum mill or an aircraft plant.

CLASS II PRIORITY: Construction deemed essential to public health, safety or u'elfare, and any industrial plant that has been awarded a "certificate of necessity" for special tax benefits and had been started before Aug. 3.

CLASS III PRIOIi.ITY: Construction needed to replace facilities ruined in disasters like fires and floods. Also, any

inclustrial facility that got a certificate of necessity before Aug. 3, or where construction had begun by Aug. 3 and the certificate didn't come until later.

CLASS IV PRIORITY: All other industrial construction. NPA said that it wouldn't grant any metal allotments for rlew recreational facilities in the last three months this year except where "undue hardship" will result, for example, to an owner who has purchased much material that will have to lie idle.

Frisco's Chickens

Lou Cohen, of Hollywood, California, top business man in Jimmy Durante's various drganizations and enterprises, has known the stammering comedian Joe Frisco well for many years, and loves to tell Frisco stories. The other day he unloaded the following one on me, making a swell ad. dition to my Frisco collection.

This was in the old days in Hollywood when horse parlors were running more or less openly in the movie capital. Frisco put over a parlay that brought him in a roll of cash, and he immediately invited a group of close friends to have dinner with him at his apartment that night. In addition to being a star comedian, Joe is quite a famous cook. He handed each of the group some money with instructions to buy and bring to the party various items needed for the dinner, and took for himself the job of bringing a lot of chickens,

Stan Rose, of the Exeter Lumber Sales, Longview, Wash. was a San Francisco business visitor early in August.

which were to be the main item in the feast. And he told the gang to meet him at Hollywood and Vine streets at three o'clock that afternoon.

At three they were all there loaded down with bundles of food and drink. All but Frisco. Half an hour passed, and when he failed to show up, they went looking for him in the horse race betting parlors. And, sure enough, they soon found him. As they entered the place, the man at the loud speaker was calling a race in customary fashion, giving the names of the horses and their positions as they ran. One of the gang grabbed Frisco, and snapped at him: "Joe, where the hell are the chickens?"

And Joe calmly replied:

"Quiet ! They're r-r-running in the stretch r-r-right now t"

Angelus Fir and Pine Sales Co. Markets Products

lVhen Tom G. Ross completed construction of his big and modern new sawmill plant at Medford, Oregon, about three months ago, giving him a total of three sawmills and about 400,000 feet of daily lumber production, he joined forces with two other highly competent and experienced lumbermen and created a sales company to exclusively market the product of these mills.

fn partnership u,'ith Al. E. Hollivet and Dennis Gilchrist, the Angelus Fir & Pine Sales Company was organized, with brand new offices located in the Boothe Building, 475 Huntington Drive, San Marino, California. In charge of sales for the new concern is Dennis Gilchrist, 36 years of age, r,vho has 16 years of experience in the lumber sales field. For the past trvo years he has been sales manager for the Pope & Talbot mill at Oakridge, Oregon, with headquarters in Portland. Prior to that time he spent 14 years in the sales department of Pope & Talbot in Los Angeles.

Al Hollivet, partner of Ross and Gilchrist in this nen' enterprise, will also devote full time to the new concern locally. He is one of the best known lumbermen in Los Angeles territory, having spent 43 years in the business along Alameda Street, starting with the old L. W. Blinn Lumber Company. He is co-owner of the Angelus-Simmons Hardwood Lumber Company at the present time.

Tom G. Ross and Al Hollivet worked in the same of6ce together more than thirty years ago, and have been friends for more than a generation. Mr. Ross made an outstanding success of the lumber manufacturing business in Oregon in the last two decades, and capped his career with the construction of the nerv Medford plant, equipped with a modern sawmill and a mammoth modern planing mill. The planer is double the capacity of the mill, enabling him tcr bring in tl-re rough lumber produced at his other mills located at Prospect and Cave Junction, Oregon. Here the lumber from all three plants is now being seasoned, dressed, and prepared for market. The Medford plant cost one mil'lion dollars to build and equip, and is one of the most modern on the entire coast. Modern dry kilns are an essential part of the Medford equipment. The new plant covers 2l .acres of ground.

otThree Ross Mills P/e

The three Ross Lumber Company mills whose lumber products are now being exclusively distributed and marketed by the new Angefus Fir & Pine Sales Company, manufacture choice fir and Ponderosa pine lumber products, rvith the accent on fir, since that species furnishes a preponderance of their cut. They cut pine in the summer season, but fir the year around. These products are being ofiered in straight or mixed cars, or for truck delivery, to the retail lumber dealers of California, Nevada Arizona, Nerv Mexico, and Texas.

Mr. Ross commutes between tl-re mills in Oregon and his newly purchased home in San Marino by means of a private plane piloted by Dick Reidel. This enables him to spend part of his time in the nerv sales office in San Marino, and also to maintain finger-tip control over the mill operations, thus insuring best personal service to their customers.

Angelus Fir & Pine Sales Company is an important addition to the Southern California lumber industry.

"Our customers are assured of a constant source of choice, oh-the-grade fir and pine lumber," Mr. Gilchrist declared upon assuming his new position with Angelus Fir & Pine -Sales Company. "I have just completed a thorough inspection of the mills of the Ross Lumber Company in Medford, Prospect, and Cave Junction, and I can confidently say that Angelus is equipped to deliver the goods."

Riverside Salutes and Compliments J. \(/esl"v Shrimp

When the citizenry of the free city of Riverside, California turns out to do a job, they do a thorough one.

Tl.re news got around recently that one J. Wesley Shrimp was about to celebrate his forty-first year with the Cresmer Manufacturing Company, of that city. Now be it knolr.n that the Cresmer outfit is one of the oldest and most highly respected business concerns in that part of the state; ancl furthermore that this man Shrimp is one of Riverside's most popular citizens and personalities.

So, said someone, let's help this fellow Shrimp make thc day a real celebration by joining in the verse as rvell as the chorus of the birthday singing. And it was done. Announcements lvere sent out naming the time as 2 to 4 o'clock on the afternoon of August 10, and the place the offices of the Cresmer Manufacturing Company. As the old song goes "They rallied from the hillsides ancl gathered from the plains," of the Riverside territory, a1.rd soon there was a goodly throng that packed the place of festivity to the fullest. The Mayor of the City, the other city officials, citizens generally who are high on N{r. Shrimp, as 'lvell as followers of the lumber and millwork craft in the neighborhood, came to slip the honored guy the harrrl of good fellowship.

Many of them brought gifts. They ate, they drank, they made informal speeches, and altogether they proceeded to tell J. Wesley Shrimp that Riverside and those w'ho live there and thereabouts love him and are proud they know

hirn, and hope he lives there for another forty-one years' :rt least. Charlie Adams, a lumber dealer from San Berdoo, came lugging the biggest paper sack you ever saw, four feet high and of huge capacity. When he opened it there u,as found in the bottom two very small sacks, one holding 41 metal rvashers and the other 41 silver dollars, with a tag announcing: "To J. Wesley Shrimp, All He Is Valued At For 41 Years."

A grand time 'lvas had by all, especially by the honoree of the occasion 'lvho had been called so many other kinds of names during his business career that the endearments lreaped upon him on this festive occasion seemed hardly real.

The Cresrner l\fanufacturing Company is a sash and door nranufacturing concern which was organized in IX)4 at Riyerside by J. H. Cresmer. On August 10, 1910, young \\resley Shrimp, who had been rn'orking for a time with the A. \\r. Miller Planing Mill at Riverside, was hired bv Mr. Cresmer to work in the plant. Soon he rvas transferred to the offrce, and in l9I7 he was made secretarytreasurer, and manager of the company, which job he has l.reld ever since and still holds. He put a sign up in his office when he started, that read: "Anyone Who Enjoys \\rork Can Certainly Have a Hell of a Good Time in This Institution." The sign is still there, and the philosophy still prevails.

Besides himself there are two other partners in the business actively employed in its operations, Homer Wilson,

assistant manager, and Bob Saucke. Wilson has been there since 1917, and Saucke since 1924. Lots of old timers among the Cresmer employees. Glenn Finney, mill superintendent, has been there since 1924, and there are many others lvho have worked for Cresmer and under this fellow Shrimp for from 15 to 25 years.

Mr. Shrimp makes his home in Riverside, and has a beach home at Newport Beach. He and his wife have one daughter, Mrs. Dorothy Tipton, and two granddaughters. He has held many offices of civic importance through the years, and is at present a member of the Riverside Police and Fire Commission. He is a past Exalted Ruler of the Riverside Elks. He is proclaimed one of Riverside's top citizens.

In addition to the host of friends and their personal hand shakes at the celebration, Mr. Shrimp received a rvorld of telegrams, letters, as well as innumerable floral gifts.

Let it be said that a proud man rvas this Weslev Shrirnr:r of Riverside. U.S.A.

Imrnorta[ty oI Wcrshingrton

(In 1817, in London, England, one Charles Phillips delivered an oration in eulogy of George Washington, believed by many to be the greatest bit of oratory ever directed to the Father of his Country. The fact that it came from a prominent Britisher in those times of partisan bitterness, makes this piece all the more remarkable. It belongs in every scrapbook, in every library.)

It matters very little what immediate spot may be the birthplace of such a man as Washington. No people can claim him; no country can appropriate him; the boon of Providence to tf,e human race, his fame is eternitS and his residence creation. Though it was the defeat of our arms, and the disgrace of our policy, I almost bless the convulsion in which he'had his origin. If the heavens thundered and the earth rocked, yet, when the storm passed, how pure was the climate that it cleared; how bright in the brow of the firmament was the planet which it revealed to us !

In the production of Washington, it does really appear as if nature was endeavoring to improve upon herself, and that all the virtues of the ancient world were but so many studies preparatory to the patriot of the new. Individual instances no doubt there were; spendid exemplifications of some single qualification. Caesar was merciful. Scipio was continent. Hannibal was patient. But it was reserved for Washington to blend them all in one, and, like the lovely chef d'oeuvre oi the Grecian artist, to exhibit in one glow of associated beauty, the pride of every model, and the perfection of every master.

As a general, he marshalled the peasant into a veteran, and supplied by discipline the absence of experience; as a statesman he enlarged the policy of the cabinet into the most comprehensive system of general advantage; and such was the wisdom of his views and the philosophy of hi: counsels, that to the soldier and the statesman he almost added the character of the sage.

A conqueror, he was untainted with the crime of blood. A revolutionist, he was free from any stain of treason. For aggression commenced the contest, and his country called him to the command. Liberty unsheathed his sword, necessity stained it, victory returned it. If he had paused here, history rnight have dotrbted what station to assign him, whether at the head of her citizens or her soldiers, her heroes or her patriots. But the last glorious act crowns his career, arrd banishes all hesitation. Who, like Washington, after having emancipated a hemisphere, resigned its crown, and preferred the retirement of domestic life to the adoration of a land he might almost be said to have created !

"How shall we rank thee upon glory's page, Thou more than soldler and just less than sage?

All thou hast been refects less fame on thee, Far less than all thou has forborne to be !"

The Wisdom oI Solomon

It was the teen-aged daughter's first dance, and she desperately wanted an off-the-shoulder frock. Her mother was doubtful, but her father settled it when he said: "Let her try one on. If it stays up-she's old enough to wear it."

The High Cost oI Milk

(As explained by Fred C. Ellis in Bill Henry's column.)

The Department of Agriculture is mobilized, The mortgage is amortized, The stable is sterilized, The cows are immunized, The milk is homogenized, The butter is subsidized, The dairymen are organized, The voters are anesthetized, And the public is victimized.

Give Thcmls For What You Hcrve

Henry Ward Beecher said: "If one should give me a dish of sand, and tell me there were particles of iron in it, I might look for them vi.ith my eyes, or search for them with my clumsy fingers, and be unable to detect them. But let me take a magnet and sweep through it, and how it would draw to itself the almost invisible particles by the mere power of attraction. The unthankful heart, like my finger in the sand, discovers no mercies. But, let the thankful heart sweep through the day, and as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find in every hour, some heavenly blessings."

Foolish Bcrseball

A country negro boy, seeing his first game of baseball, was heard to remark:

"E['it sho look lak a foolish game t'me. A lotta men runnin' dey laigs off aroun' a fiel', an' fo what? Jes tryin' t'git back to rihah dey wuz befo' dey stahts, dass all !"

The Deciding Voice

"Mamie," moaned her long-suffering husband, "you promised me you would not buy another new dress this season ! What made you do it?"

"Ffoney," said the modern Eve, "the devil tempted me."

"Why didn't you say 'get thee behind me, Satan?"' the poor man inquired.

"I did," said the little woman, sweetly, "and then he whispered over my shoulder, 'my dear, it looks just beautiful in the back."'

Ioubert Sqid:

"It is not hard to KNOW God, provided you do not trouble yourself to DEFINE Him."

New \(/holesale Distribution Yard at Newark, Calif.

American Forest Products Corporation is the name of a new wholesale distribution yard and remanufacturing plant at Newark, California. This concern is a subsidiary of the American Box Corporation, San Francisco. The mailing address is P. O. Box 667, Newark, California. C. P. (Chuck) Eddie is manager, and Kermit Noble is sales managef,

A description of the new yard and plant appeared in the August fssue of The American Eagle, excellent house publication of the American Box Corporation. This article is as follows:

"The property and improvements of the Nervark Dry Kiln Company at Newark, California, have been purchased and will now operate under our banner. The plant includes ten acres of land, a natural gas-fired Northwest Dry Kiln with a 100,000 foot capacity, a cabinet shop, a planing shed with a Yates No. 91-51" four side matcher, a resaw, a sorting chain and an office. To increase the efficiency, it is planned to install a resaw with tilting rolls and improve the planer for profile work. It is also planned to extend the sorting table and include trimmer saws. If, as expected, business warrants it, a second dry kiln will be erected. The offices have been remodeled to provide space for five salesmen's desks, together with ample roorn for the accounting department. The site was selected both because the plant was in operation and for its convenient location in relation

to the Oakland-San Jose freeway now under construction.

"The Newark plant is at the crossroads for trucks from the lumber producing areas to the lumber consuming areas of Northern California. This ne.iv operation in our organization will be known as the American Forest Products Corporation, a name you will be hearing more about as the months go on. The Newark plant will operate strictly as a distributing yard with manufacturing facilities to service the retail lumber yards of the Bay Area. They will handle a complete line of lumber products, including timbers, boards and dimension lumber, moulding, doors, windows and plywood. The new company is under the supervision of Chuck Eddie, who will direct all the activities. Its importance as a distributing point for lumber will increase as the industrial and residential sections of the Bay Area continue to grow."

The authorized quantities of steel and copper are stated alternatively to allow the builder latitude in the choice of installing water systems using copper tubing or steel piping.

Thus, if the larger amounts of copper are required because of a copper-tubing water system, only the less amounts of steel are authorized, and vice versa. No structural steel or alloy or stainless steel and no aluminum may be obtained on a self authorizecl order. Only one-half the quantities permitted under tlre self-authorization procedure may be used for an addition, extension, or alteration to or of a one-to-four farnily structure. Where a contractor obtains controlled materials for a residential structure by one method, either self-authorization or CMP allotment, he may not obtain additional materials by the other method for use in the same structure.

Application for authorized construction schedules and materials allotments will be considered on the basis of the need for the housing in the locality in the light of defense and essential civilian requirements, and the most equitable distribution among builders and types of housing of the'total amounts of materials which have been allocated by the Defense Production Administration to HHFA for housing construction. Allocation of 180,000 tons of steel, 17,457,000 pounds of copper and copper base alloys; and 500,000 pounds of aluminum have been made to the HHFA for fourth quarter housing construction.

Authorized construction schedules and allotments of controlled materials for multi-unit residential construction for delivery after October 1, 1951, will be issued by the Federal Housing Administration for private construction and by the Pubtic Housing Administration for public construction. Applications are filed by builders with the appropriate agency on NPA Form CMP-4C. Builders were previously advised to file such applications by July 27,1951, for such materials as they would need to have delivered in the fourth quarter of 1951.

Appeals and applications for exceptions or adjustments may be filed with local FHA or regional PHA offices or directly with the Director, Defense Liaison Staff, HHFA in Washington, D.C., regardless of the type of constrttction involved.
