Redwood Association Elects New Officers

At the meeting of directors of the California Redwood Association held in San Francisco, September 20, new officers for the organization were elected.

Effective October 1, I-eonard C. Ilammond, president of the Hammond Redwood Company becomes president of the Association, and Edward L. Green, vice president in charge of sales of Union Lumber Company, becomes vice president. Selwyn J. Sharp, heretofore acting manager, was named manager. J. W. Williams will continue as secretary.

The new officers were elected upon the resignation of Henry M. Hink of Dolbeer & Carson Lumber Company, whose increasing activities within his own company necessitated his move. Mr. Hink has held the post of vice president of the Association for the past four years. During much of this time, the office was the highest executive post held by an association member.

Also discussed at the meeting were promotional plans for the ensuing year.

Hawk Huey, Phoenix, Arizona, lumberman, was the guest editorial writer in the Phoenix Gazette in its issue of September 8. His editorial was titled "An Inducement To Good Citizenship."

He said in part: "Tax free homes will not only encourage home ownership but will increase tax income as well, and will make it possible for families of low income to become permanent and not transient residents.

"You may ask if tax free homes will not put an extra burden on business and income property, and the answer is so simple a child can see it. 'We are paying a sales tax of 2 per cent. Another 1 per ,cent will pay the taxes lost on hopes of $3,000 and less, with money to spare. The tax bureau is already spt up.

"Another I per cent added to the sales tax will hurt no one and will make possible the elimination of taxes on homes of not more than $3,000 valuation. It will offer the best incentive to home ownership that this state can offer."
