Everything that the Weyerhaeuser lumber making experts have learned through three generations of sawmill construction and operation has been b:ought to.a focus in the construction of their new sarvmill plant located at Springfield, Oregon. All the wisdom and the ''moxie" that the construction and operation of sawmills of great size and constantly improved equipment and arrangement has brought a g-eat army of expert mill builders, has been concentrated at Springfield.
It is not the biggest mill plant ever built-although it is one of the biggest. ft was built to manufacture 300,0011 feet of lumber every eight hottrs, and rvas planned as a single-shift operation. So far as tl-re Weyerhaeuser Tim'l>er Cornpany is conce-ned, this nerv rnill at Springfield is the most modern ever constructed for the manufactttre ot Douglas Fir. Mcst of the timber that goes through this plant '"vill be that species, although there is a certain percentage of Western Hemlock mixed rvith the Fi-. They are making this species largely into specialties, such as edge grain flooring.
'Ihe timber for the Springfield mill comes from the Weyerhaeuser timber farm of 155,000 ac:es, called the Calapooya Tree Farm, and their experts have figured that the growth of timber from this farm will furnish this mill a continuous supply of logs-perpetually.
The mill is built on a 460 acre site, and the actual buildings cover. 22 acres. In addition to the sawmill and all that goes with it, there is also in this plant a container board factory with a daily capacity of 150 tons.
The logs come into the sawmill over a 250 foot log haul from the 52 acre log pond. The first piece of manufacturing equipment that meets the log is the main headrig, a nine foot band mill powered by 750 hp electric motors, and se:ved by a tremendous five block carriage with electric setu,orks and airdogs. A fourteen inch shotgun feed drives this carriage. This is the breakdown unit of the mill, rvhich converts the logs into flitches, cants, planks :rrrd lumber. The product of this sau' then goes forward to fu:'ther manufactttring units, including a great bulie<lger, a double-cutting pony headrig, an eight foot band :rlso heavily powered electrically, and with a four block c:rrriage equipped like the first one described. There are thrcc trimme:s, and another edger that handles the prodrrct of the pony rig. Ingenious equipment handles the lru'nber and tirnber products to and from these various rrnits.
Eighty-five per cent of the product of this mill goes to the eleven l\lloore dry kilns that season 100,000 feet at a time in each kiln. The finest that Moore could build is this battery of kilns. The other 15 per cent of the cut of the mill is timbers and special green cutting. Two fully :rutomatic Moore stackers stack the lumber on kiln cars. laying even the stickers withottt the help of human hands, and then the kiln cars are hauled by an electric car 26O

On this beautiful sun-kissed September morn' as I sit writing th'e check for the third installment on my income tax, it is "one sweetly solemn thought" that I, and every other income tax payer however small, have become a world-wide benefactor' ,,< * :r
And, as I think it over, I lean back and close my eyes and think how wonderful it feels to be so wholesale a philanthropist.
Twenty years ago *rr.rJ I ,"rU -, income tax there was little in the act to warm the heart, stimulate the mentality, or thrill the soul. ***
All I was doing then was paying my share of the cost of running the very economical Government of the United States. Nothing broad or world-shaking about it then. ***
But today ! Ah, Junior ! Today it is di,fferent ! Today I am codtributing to the support, in some fashion or other, of probably two thirds of all the people in the whole dadblamed world.
millions of sets of new false teeth now in use in England, financed by American money via the British health system. Now, when we fail to send as much aid to England as they keep asking for, they can REALLY gnash their teeth at us. We've furnished the teeth ! Isn't there a "sweetly solemn thought" there?
And my little tax rnoney is financing that dear, sweet Socialist government in England, which keeps edging nearer to that delightful Communism that I admire so much. A "wild and vicious" bunch of Socialists, a well known writer calls it. But I have decided to be both sweet and solemn in this particular story I am writing, so I refuse to go along with such declarations, regardless of my true sentiments' * * ,*
Like I said, Junior, I can't begin to tell you even a small part of what goes on with my tax money. I can only touch on a few of the spots that seem to interest me the most. Take Maine, for example (although to tell the truth, I wouldn't take Maine even {or*thao.
Add together all the people and all the peoples that my income tax money reaches in some fashion, and it runs up to something like a billion and one-half humans. I SHOULD be proud, should I not, Junior, at having become so wide-spread a benefactor of the human race? **!t
The fact that this distribution of the money for which I
my own might few of). An all-
Some of the things I have heard about what is being done with my money in Europe would make great stories, Junior, but with space so limited I think I'll stay closer to home for this piece. So, like I said, let's take Maine. I've really got the thing backwards, because the fact is that it's Maine that's taking us. Let me elucidate (a nine letter word meaning explain. Why don't I just say explain, then? Don't be fresh, Junior. Long words are an editor's privilege; and privileges are things editors have hustled and sweated in my old age is NOT of choosing, changes the situation not in the least. wise administration that has seen fit to set aside most of the Providential laws that Americans followed for many generations, has made me my brother's keeper. And everyone else's, besides.
It would be utterly and absolutely impossible for me to attempt to print within the limits of this story-or of this entire magazine for that matter-all the things that are being done with this modest income money I am sending in, or all the countless places where it will be used.
To all the continents my tax money goes, and to most of the people in all those continents. I'll admit that my contribution-and yours-is spread out mighty thin by the time it arrives at its end-use; but it gets there just the same'
For instance, an American writer over there tells of the
One of an editor's few privileges is the right to refer to himself as "\,ve" in his writings. Only two other men have that right, a king, and a man with a tapeworm. You say you've heard me pull that one before, Junior? All right' so f've pulled it before. But I'm still going to talk about Maine, just like I started to. *
There is an old saying, famous in American politics, that "as Maine goes, so goes the nation." I don't know whether that alleged leadership of Maine has anything to do with the way they've been spending my income tax money in that tiny, one-horse state, but it could be, it could well be'

Aroostook County has a population of between ninety and one hundred thousand people. In that County in the year that ended June 30th, 1949,4503 farmers qualified for government price support. In order to keep up the price of potatoes and for no other reason claimed or otherwise, the government, to which I am sending my income tax remittance, fixed the nt":.t_P"_aatoes at $2.92 per bushel.
The potato farmers of Aroostook County, Maine, sold to the United States Government last year 60 per cent of their entire crop at that price, getting checks for SIXTYSEVEN MILLION DOLLARS in payment. Yes, Junior, SIXTY-SEVEN MILLION. Yes, Ifncle Sam bought over 25 million sacks of potatoes wiighing lfi) pounds each from this County. In June the goverrlment figures on potatoes showed their average price to be 93.6 cents a PECK; the highest in all history, made that way entirely by government price suPports.
The report says that at least one and perhaps several potato growers in that County got as high as half a million dollars from the government for potatoes during that year. A dozen or more got about $150,000 each. A farmer that got less than $1fi),000 was just "small potatoes" as the old saying goes. The potato money that Uncle Sam sent into that County last year amounted to $670 for every man, woman, and child in the* CountY.
Yes, Junior, this little check I am sending in to Washington is certainly putting me on the Maine benefactors' list. ft's something to know that we generous folks are showing our appreciation of the farmers of Aroostook County by putting them all in the Cadillac Car column. It is true that 999 out of every thousand taxpayers who foot the bill can neverhope to own a Cadillac, but that doesn't keep us from buyin* ln"? for our friends in Maine.
You understand, of course Junior, that the Potatoes which Uncle Sam buys in this fashion can never be used for human consumption? I've told you that before in this column. Some are sold for cattle feed, some to industrials, some are destroyed. In fact, it was frankly suggested in Washington recently that the government pay the farmers for the potatoes and just leave them in the ground to rot. That suggestion *"". "T"?tly made.
There was a famous book once in which one of the characters, when asked why he acted so strangely at times, replied that one side of his brain was all right, but that the other side was just potato. I often wonder if he was the guy who thought up this 1otXao price support program?
Isn't it strange that so few voices are raised against the unholy thing? Politics, of course. Someone has'said that our trouble is that in Congress we have no statesmen, just politicians. The way I look at it is that we have neither.
All we have are candidates for office. The minute thiy get elected, they start running again, so they cast no suicidal votes. And it would probably be suicidal for a lawmaker to vote against giving unearned money to the farmer. Getting a hog out of the trough once you've let him in, is next to impossible until the slop is all gone.
There are a lot of farmers in this country, and they vote, especially since their votes now mean cash in the pocket. So do their wives, and their sons, and their daughters; they all vote. Just why this one section of our people should be so favored, no man sayeth. The butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker would be laughed to scorn if any of them suggested that all men are equal under our Constitution, and they would like some of this gravy. All these old fashioned notions went by the board in the year 1933. Equality no longer exists. Votes are all that count'
We send in our tax money, and part of it is used to keep the price of food high. Then we are taxed again when we pay the high price of these supported foods. Double taxation, without representation.* *
Reports from Washington say that even among those who favor these ruthless price supports a feeling of apprehension is growing as to how long the public will stand for them. Even Senator Lucas, Democrat, came out recently with the declaration that the government had gone too far with its price supports. Price supports stink. Stink to high heaven. That's what I always say, isn't that what you always say, Junior?* * {<
But don't get the idea, Junior, that I have been financing only the potato growers. Perish the thought ! Right before me is today's newspaper, and it offers the prediction that the "corn mess" will soon be as bad as the "potato mess." Uncle Sam, dear old soul, is soon going to own eight hundred milliort dollars worth of surplus corn. I'm helping with that. And I've helped him buy seventy million pounds of eggs, just to take them off the market, and keep the price of eggs high. And then there are wheat and other grains, bnd still other foods as well. I help pay the farmer for his products, and then take them off the market so as to make the consumer's dollar shrink when he shoPs' :r * !F
I protest and shall always protest that bounties and subsidies are dangerous instruments of totalitarian power and have no place in the life of a free people. A nation that tampers with such things is sowing the seeds of its own destruction. A farmer has no more right to a_ subsidy than the newsboy on the corner, or any other citizen under our fag. We are treading dangerous paths. They all lead downward'
Wish I had time and space, Junior, to tell you about more of the wonderful things that are being done with my tax dollar-and yours. Makes me feel wonderful to know that my money is being used, through the Atomic Energy

Yet Craftsman Grade W'eldwood represents big savings-in some cases as much as 3o%-over the same woods in the Algoma Grade.
Main reason for this difference is the brand new model plywood plant at Orangeburg, S. C., which was designed and built specifcally for the manufacture of this new grade.
In the production of Craftsman Grade W'eldwood Plywood, full advantage is taken of the economies of straightJine, concentrated manufacturing. The Orangeburg plant produc€s a few items only-makes them in large vqlume-and thereby keeps costs at rock bottom.
An entirely different technique is employed at the Algoma plant where the magnificent Algoma Grade panels are made. This plant manufactures a wide range of plywood items-gives every panel individual, pains-

W. T. White, Jr., son of the president, W. T. White, Sr., has joined White Brothers, San Francisco, and is in charge of the pine department.

The nation's new six-year program for providing 810,000 units of public low-rent housing for low income families is now ready to go into action, the Public Housing Administration announced recently.
Application forms and instructions for participation in the program have been mailed to about 500 local housing authorities located in 42 states. These authorities, as well as others which may be organized, will build, own and operate the housing projects with Federal financial assistance.
The application forms now being distributed will serve two purposes. They will be used primarily to make reservations of specific numbers of dwelling units from the national program for the local authorities in communities desiring to take part in the program. They may also be used to apply for preliminary loans from the Federal governrnent to be uied in starting plans for local programs of low-rent housing.
Commissioner Egan has instructed the ten field officials of the Public Housing Administration to assist local housing authorities in preparing their applications for participaton in the progam if help is needed. These offrces are located in New York City, Philadelphia, Detroit, Chicago, Richmond, Atlanta, Fort Worth, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle.

He joined the Stanton organization during the war vears as assistant superintendent and quickly made his place u'ith the ccmpany by publishing the house organ, Stantonite, and handled personnel problems, advertising and publicity.

feet to the kilns. A huge cooling shed awaits the lumber rvhen it comes from the kilns. Automatic unstackers unload the lumber from the kiln cars at the door of the rough dry sheds. Frgm here the lumber is all piled and handled in package units.
The planing mill is of course in keeping with the rest of the great plant, equipped with two molders, a resaw, an edger, four planers, and nine 'cut-off saws. The dry lumber and shipping shed is 246 by 742 feet in size.
There are a thousand refinements in this plant never dreamed of in sawmill construction of just a few years back. Naturally there is every conceivable device for the mechanical handling of the lumber products throughout. But in addition, the lighting effects have been scientifically arranged to furnish the best possible light for the employees to rvork by, and the inside of all buildings has been scientifically painted to give the lights the best reflective value and supply more pleasant working conditions. Colo: combinations never before heard of in a sawmill, have been 'i'r'orked out with the same care as the arrangement of machinery. There is no burner at this plant. Evervthing that comes from the saw is utilitzed. The entire plant gives the impression of being bright, clean, pleasantcolored, and different.
It is a plant that will attract visitors in unusual fashion, and will, at the same time, make lumber with the highest degree of scientific certainty.

The Housing Act of 1949-what it is and how it works -is explained in a 3O-page booklet, "A Handbook of Information," published by the Housing and Home Finance Agency and now available for distribution.
Operations authorized under the various provisions of the act-slum clearance, public housing, farm housing and housing research-together with a summary of the act itself, are given in this pamphlet which is designed to provide in layman's language complete information on all aspects of these programs. (The only provision of the act not covered is Title II which is a temporary extension of certain existing Federal Housing Administration mortgage-insurance operations for which further continuation is provided in other legislation being considered by Congress.)
"The information in this booklet does not attempt to be an exhaustive treatment of all details of the bill nor to answer all of the questions that'have been or will be raised," Housing Administrator Raymond M. Foley explains. "It is intended primarily to highlight and amplify the major phases of the act which are of greatest interest to the general public. Some questions must await formulation of administrative policies and regulations authorized by the act, and some depend also upon Congressional appropriations."
The slum clearance and housing research programs are to be administered directly by the Office of the Administrator in the HHFA, and public housing by its constituent, the Public Housing Administration. The farm housing program will be handled by the United States Department of Agriculture, principally through the Farmers Home Administration.
Copies of this handbook of information on provisions of tlre Housing Act of 1949, are available from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office. Washington 25 D.C., at 15 cents a copy.

The claims for Panelyte include that it is stain-proof, and is unaffected by alcoholic drinks, grease, fruit juices, or food; also that a Panelyte top is chip-proof and crackproof. It is recommended as an ideal material for table tops, sink tops, and all working surfaces in kitihens and pantries, counters, bars, trays, and furniture.

Some of you will remember Niel Comegys. Niel pushed Celotex and then Thermax with a slide rule, norv he is pushing the Acorn but he has given up his slide rule, it's a glue brush now.
Back in '45 when the Thermax plant closed, Niel organized the Acorn Adhesives & Supply Company in Los Angeles, with the idea that there are reliable adhesives that would do a good job and save a lot of work for somebody. Acorn now has over one hundred adhesive materials for industry and builders. These include cement for acoustical tile, wall board cement, tile-board and clay tile cement, rubber cement, boiltest wood glues, resin glues and glues and adhesives for almost every purpose. The most widely known to lumbermen is Wilhold White Glue. Yes, that is the one with the Acorns on the label.
Wilhold Glue is no ordinary material. It makes a nice shelf package with its blue and gold label on a clear glass jar showing the snow whiteness of the glue itself. As the glue dries the film becomes colorless, so colorless that well-matched joints of redwood, mahogany, walnut, pine and any other wood are invisible and Wilhold Glue remains colorless in spite of time and sunlight.
Wilhold Glue is popular with the cash customer because 'it is ready to use and is quick to set. Cabinet shops find they can remove the clamps in less than thirty minutes and run their work through a shaper without further waiting.
Sales of the glue have increased so rapidly that it is now clistributed by more than a dozen wholesalers covering the West Coast from Washington to Texas.
Comegys says, that if you want to get stuck we will Io our best to stick vou.
Washington, August 31.-A bill increasing the minimum wage in the Wage-Hour Act from 40 to 75 cents an hour was passed by the Senate today.
The House also has passed a bill boosting the minimum rvage to 75 cents.
A Flouse-Senate conference is still required to work out difierences between the House and Senate bills on what workers will be covered under the law. The conference cannot be held until late this month, after the House rettrrns from its month-long vacation on September 21.
(Ed Kilman, Editor of The Houston Post, is a great hand at digging up interesting tales of the old days in Texas. One Sunday recently he printed the following concerning an alleged event that took place during the wild oil boom in Ranger.)
One Saturday night at a dance hall in Ranger a man knifed another man to death. The killer was lodged in the county jail. In the rush and bustle of the times nobody took the trouble to file a charge against him.
After three days the prisoner's lawyer told Judge Flewellen that his client was being held without any accusation, and asked that he be released. Flewellen investigated and found that the deceased started the row. and that if the prisoner was ever tried in district court h'e would doubtless be acquitted.
But, after all, the man had been living off the city and wearing out its iail for three days, so Ranger had some claim against him. Flewellen had the prisoner brought before him, and solemnly told him: "You can't come into our peaceful little city (Ranger had 30,000 people and six killings a week), and strike down one of our respected citizens (the slain man was a professional gambler) and not expect to feel the stern hand of the law. I fine you $75 for murder. And I want this to be a lesson to you. I advise you to catch the next train out of town and let your first stop be Shanghai. If you ever kill another one of our citizens I will give you the full limit of the law$200 and costs. Mr. Clerk. call the next case."
A wealthy society lady had just engaged a new maid and was instructing her in the duties of waiting on table.
"At dinner, Mary." said the lady, "you must always serve from the left and take the plates off from the right. Is that clear?"
"Whatsa matter, Mam?" asked the girl. "Superstitious or something?"
They had made up a golf foursome for the visiting preacher who had expressed his liking for the game. The preacher got up on the first tee, took a mighty swing, and missed the ball completely. He looked awfully embarrassed, and exclaimed:
"Oh, Muscle Shoals !"
The others considered the remark.. and one of them asked:
"What does that mean?"
"Muscle Shoals," replied the preacher, "is the biggest dam on earth."
Two screwballs stood at the street corner talking. One of them took out his watch and looked at it, and said to his friend:
"My watch has stopped. What does yours say?"
And the other screwball answered:
"Same old thing . tick, tick, tick, tick."
Lord, keep me working, keep me fit, At windows f don't want to sit, Let me stay busy til I die. Grant me the strength and breath and will, Some useful niche in life to fill, A need to serve, a task to do, Let me each morning rise anew Eager and glad that I can bear My portion of the morning's care.
Lord, f dgn't want to sit about, Broken and tired and all worn out. Afraid of wind and rain and cold, Let me stay busy when I'm old. Although I walk at slower pace, Still let me meet life face to face. Let me a garden plant and sow, Set phlox and peony row on row; Hew wood for winter's cozy fire, And at some useful labor tire. This my prayer; as time goes by, Lord, keep me busy til I die.
From lip to lip is proudly rolled, I do not want you when your fame Has brought you gold.
But when you fight and strive and press And no one reads the songs you pen, And life is full of loneliness
Come then.
Man wants but little here below. He's ready to admit it, If Uncle Sam keeps taxing him, He's pretty sure to get it.

IJnits are now being manufactured in Northern California and in California sizes for the first time. California Builders Supply Co. recenty acquired the manufacturing franchise formerly held by the Rocky Mount Mfg. Co. of Reno, Nevada. California Builders Supply Co. has been distributor in Northern California for R-O-W Windows.
Wood lrame lor steel windows,
T. V. Walker & Son of Burbank, subdistributors of Lupton metal windows for the Blue Diamond Corporation, 'Los Angeles, are manufacturing a wood frame for residential casements.
Ed Sylvis, who is a builder of substantial homes, designed this method of installing residential casements, which lend themselves to wood trim for any style of architecture. For fastening venetian blinds, shades or draperies, the wood frame forms a solid base for attachments. The width of the jamb permits clearance between window handles and venetian blinds and shades.
Lumber Mart, Ted Hoyt, owner, moved into new offices August 24, at 4230 Bandini Boulevard, Los Angeles 23. This concern specializes in sales of Ponderosa pine to retail lumber yards. The telephone number is ANgelus 3-7503.
Greenlee Lumber Co., which has a pine mill near Nevada City, Calif., moved its Los Angeles office to 4230 Bandini Boulevard, Los Angeles 23, the last week of August.
The plant equipment and k"y personnel have been transferred to the new location at 650 Central Avenue, Richmond Shipyard Four. Approximately 23,000 feet of floor space were resurfaced and the plant and equipment laid out for straight line production. Additional woodworking equipment and trucking facilities were added and the present capacity is 600 R-O-W units per day. Approximately 20 men will be employed. Walter Foster, former sales manager of Rocky Mount Mfg. Co., will head the new plant.
California Builders Supply Co. will continue to distribute the R-O-W Window Units through their authorized retail lumber dealers in Northern California and will add Nevada to the territory served.
R-O-W Windows are complete units-prefitted and weather-stripped. The sash, which slide in adjustable, spring-tensioned metal guides, are removable and lift out easily so that the outside of the window can be cleaned or painted inside the house. The window cannot be removed when it is locked.
R-O-W Window Units have become increasingly popular all over the country since their introduction in 1939. fn a recent survey of building material sales during 1948, it was reported that l0/o of all the windows installed in new buildings during the year were R-O-W units. 'Ihis new plant, the most recent addition to the rapidly growing Richmond industrial area, will manufacture a complete range of California sizes. Mf. Foster reports that the plant will soon be in full production, with trucks leaving every other day to meet the increasing demand of the lumber dealers.
Pine lumber was the nation's first building material.

Initial production on a new type of steam boiler treatment which is made as a by-product of Red Cedar Shingle manufacturing has begun at the Chemical Division of the Portland 'shingle Company, Portland, Oregon.
Commissioner Franklin D. Richards, Federal Housing Administration today a.nnounced rules and regulations governing FHA insurance on privately constructed military housing have been signed and are in the inail today to all field offices and approved mortgages.
The new act, designed to assist in relieving housing shortages affecting both civilian and military employees of the national military establishments throughout the country, amends the National Housing Act by adding to it a new Title VIII which makes special provision for FHA insurance of mortgages on rental housing to be built by private capital for these employees and their families.
Allred H. SchmidlAlfred H. Schmidt, president of the Portland Shingle Company, said, "further utilization of Cedar logs in shingle mills has added new importance to the Western Red Cedar shingle industry." Further utilization of the Red Cedar logs has been a project of the Research Department of the Portland Shingle Company for the past year. Other products in addition to the boiler treatment will be announced shortly.
Initial development and field testing on the boiler treatment, named "Borgana," 'was done by Guy J. Bailey, who has been associated with the steam boiler industry for more than 40 years. Mr. Bailey is now serving in the capacitv of technical advisor on boiler treatment for the Chemical Division of Portland Shingle Company.
During the past two-year testing period Borgana has been successfully used in food processing plants, lumber mills, ships and many types of plants where live steam is used for process work.
Borgana has proved successful in cleaning boiler and steam systems and also providing a protective treatment which prevents scale, corrosion and other accumulations. The boiler treatment has been used in stationary, portable and marine boilers. Scale and corrosion from salt contamination has also been effectively treated.
Borgana comes in a liquid form and is applied directly into boiler drums or taken through feed pumps or injectors. which will not clog. It is chemically neutral and contains no active caustics or acids.
The Borgana pilot plant at the present time is producing 50 barrels a day and is being packaged in 55 gallon drums.
Insurance under Title VIII parallels that currentl-v available under Section 608 and provides for insuran'ce of a maximum mortgage of $5,000,000, representing not more than 90 per cent of replacement costs and not more than $8,100 per family unit except that where the need will be better served by single-family dwelling units the mortgage principal may be as much as $9,000 per family unit. The interest rate may not exceed 4/o.
E. L. Bruce Co. offers a series of five, full color booklets to dealers rvishing to promote Bruce flooring.
The attractive new literature is profusely illustrated with photographs showing professionally designed room settings with hardwood block floors and conventional hardwood strip flooring. One piece features factory finished flooring. The booklets are available in two sizes; both are designed to be handed out to customers in the store and the smaller size makes dn efiective direct mail enclosure.
Dealers may ohtain imprinted copies by writing E. L. Rruce Co., Box 397, Memphis 1, Tenn. There is no charge for this material.
Mass production of the boiler treatment will be undertaken in the very near future.
Schmidt further stated that, "there is enough raw material that is now being burned to produce enough boiler treatment to supply a major portion of the steam boilers throughout the country."
