.Pioneer-Flintkote Plan to Assist 22,OOO Changes in Year Reported Dealers in FHA Campaign By Credit Agency

A complete plan for dealers throughout the West to utilize in making the most of the Federal Housing Administration's campaign insofar as roofing is concerned, has been issued by the Pioneer-Flintkote company, and is being distributed.

The plan gives the dealer a working knowledge of the FHA operation, and suggests ways and means for capitalizing the roofing possibilities which the national program generates in each territory. The plan conforms to the FHA campaign, but concentrates upon the roofing opportunities and how they may be most efiectively handled by the dealer.

The Pioneer-Flintkote line of roofing, building papers' asphalt shingle and asphalt emulsion products is outlined, and the various uses for each of the products listed'

The Pioneer-Flintkote plan for helping dealers in the FHA campaign, has received much favorable comment from the trade.

It is learned through an officer of the Lumberman's Credit Association, Inc., Chicago and New York City, that their new fall reference book lists in the neighborhood of 60,000 rated cases with well over 95/o of the traders assigned what is termed a "definite credit rating."

Lumbermen may be somewhat surprised to learn that through the medium of the Association's Semi-Weekly Supplemental Change Sheets all service users received, voluntarily, during the past year, or since the fall 1933 edition of the Credit Rating Book-some 22,W changes afiecting business styles, ratings-in-and-out of business data-and other valuable credit information relating to traders generally and all this without extra charge. 'We are advised this does not include the great number of trade reports furnished on a reciprocal basis to interested subscribers.

During the Association's 58 years of activity many changes have developed, not only in merchandising but in the basic principles of credit granting and other business policies, all of which must have been and no doubt will continue to be more and more exacting of the Association's services. Apparcntly they have successfully met these conditions, as they continue to gather, compile, and deliver credit and sales information on the lumber and woodworking trade with a promptness and efficiencv which makes them an almost indispensable part of the industry.

The fall edition of their Lumbermen's Credit Rating Book, the 106th semi-annual edition, will be in the hands of their subscribers on or about October 1.
