Showing championship form throughout the season, the San Francisco Lumbermen's Club bowling quintet made a runaway of the lO-week handicap league conducted by the Downtown Bowl in San Francisco during the summer months. The club's keglers won 20 games out of the 30 played and were never out of first place. The second place team finished five games behind the flying leaders.
The club's team captured both high game and high series honors and only failed making a clean sweep_of individual honors. Fred Amburgey's season's average was high, but Stewart Griswold's high game was only good for se'cond money.
The winning combination celebrated with a victory luncheon at the Palace hotel on September 11, with the first string team out in full force. The regular quintet is composed of Fred Amburgey as captain, Stewart Griswrcld, Fred Ziese, Ernest Bacon and Leonard Kupps. Substitutes included Wayne Rawlings and Art Bennett.
This is the same team that made the East Bay Lumbermen's Club run for cover a short time back, and the San Francisco gang is ready to issue a challenge to any other lumbermen's club in northern California for a series of matches.

From all accounts the Coast Counties Lumber Dealers' party at Salinas, September 12, was the most successful get-together affair in that area in many years.
The day was given over entirely to fun. Starting with a luncheon at Santa Lucia Inn, the afternoon was taken up with visiting and golf. There was a tour of the produce packing sheds conducted by Joe Rogers. BBQ steaksfrom loins which had been hanging since August 6were served at 6:30 in the evening at the Salinas Golf Club.

Ray Clotfelter, Walter Peterson, and Bob Wright and his staff formed a delegation from the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California. The total attendance was 96.
The weather was perfect, with a full moon in the evening making a fine climax to a most enjoyable day. E. R. Hipkins of the Square Deal Lumber Co., Salinas, was chairman of the committee handling the arrangements, and he and his committee did a nice iob.

Private enterprise made the United States, created all her wealth and her power, and placed her in the forefront of the nations of the world in a thousand difierent ways' Free, private enterprise did that. And if this nation is to continue great, rich, powerful, and American, private enterprise is going to have to carry the burden of keeping it that way.
And if you don't realize that the red battalions that would sound the death knell of private enterprise are now openlv and deliberately marching in battle array to destroy this priceless thing that is the foundation of all our greatness and happiness, then you must indeed belong to the unfortunate ranks of those who, having eyes see not, and having ears hear not.

RELIABILITY . . . hidden ingredient which makes Bradley Pre-finished (Straight-line) Hardwood Flooring a better product.
Vhere does it first enter? Not with the flooring factory or sawmill. Farther back than the forest. It begins with the standards which the Bradley Lumber Company set for itself at the time of its inception. standards that have guided all activities since.
Thus each step. in forest oPerations' sawmil[, dry kilns, flooring factoty, even loading into cars that take it to many and far-flung

To even our old-time, long established cnstomers, the best we can offer is a Pto tata trickle, with no visible hope of an increase at least during the remainder of.1946. Meantime, we'll be glad to mail literature describing the 9-Point superiority of Bradley Pre-finished Flooring.
Announcement is made by the Santa Fe Lumber Co., San Francisco, of the transfer of John C. Saner, Jr. from Portland to the head office in San Francisco, where he will be in charge of industrial sales. He succeeds John J. Helm, who has resigned.'
Mr. Saner, who has been manager of the firm's-Portland office since the first of January, 1944, brings to (ris new position a wealth of lumber experience, which includes important positions held in California pine and Southern pine manufacturlng concerns.
In 1929 and 1930, and from 1934 to 1941 he was connected with the Quincy Lumber Co., Quincy, Calif., manufacturers of Sugar and Ponderosa pine, Douglas and White fir. From 1930 to 1934 he was engaged in developing a coconut plantation, the Yakan Plantation Co., on Basilan Island, in the Philippines, where the work consisted of clearing the jungle and selling the native hardwoods.
Later he was assistant manager of the Saner-Ragley Lumber Co. at Carmona, Texas, manufacturers of long and short leaf Yellow pine.
He humorously states that his first sawmill experience was at the tender age of four at the Saner-Whiteman Lumber Company's mill at Caro, Texas, where he had to be constantly pulled from the pond while "helping."
He attended the Terrill Preparatory School, the University of Texas, and Southern Methodist University.
He literally grew up in the lumber business, as his grandfather, the late W. G. Ragley; his father, John C. Saner, and his uncles, Martin J. Ragley, and Frank J. Ragley, operated sawmills in East Texas and Western Louisiana for many years.
Mr. Saner's appointment is effective October 1. So far no announcement has been made by the company as to his successor as manager of the Portland office.
E. J. Stanton & Son, Los Angeles, celebrated their fifty-third year in business by having a big barbecue and pionic for over 500 employees, their wives and families at Montebello Municipal Park, Saturday, September 21.
It is planned to make this "get-together" an annual affair, and Roy Stanton, Sr., believes social gatherings of this character are great morale builders, and is one reason he has such a close "knit" organization of "Old-Timers."
Sports contests of every variety, with prizes for "Kiddies," were enjoyed during this day of fun and frolic. The outstanding events being the softball game between the "Old-Timers" and the "Youngsters," and the game between the Timberwolves and the girls of the office staff.
Arrangements and planning were handled by a committee headed by Jean Parrish and Perry Cory and the barbecue of beef with all the trimmings just hit the "spot." Over fifty gallons of lemonade were consumed during the day.

Having no duties beyond her ability, Hers is a world of utmost stability. Cared for by others from youth to maturity, A perfect example of social security."

My daughter Katie is just back from 27 months' service overseas with the American Red Cross. the last 13 months as director of a tremendous Red Cross Club in Germany, and she brought back a story on postwar conditions that knocked me for a loop. An American G.I. in Germany was very anxious to get home, so he got his discharge and came back. Sixty days later he was re-enlisted and back in Germany, much to the surprise of his friends. They said to him "Why didn't you stay home? Why did you come back here?" And he said - "The chaos is better organized over here."

I tried to pump her about the status of UNRRA in Europe, but she wouldn't give. Said she had rather not be interviewed on that subject, and besides she didn't use that kind of lan*uage. * *< ,<
Every American soldier I have met returning from Europe, tells me the very same thing. Everyone over there thinks we're the world's prize suckers, who, in spite of the fearful treatment we receive, just keep on giving our remaining wealth to people who give nothing in return, not even good will. And most of the wealth we send, goes direct to the black markets. If there ever was any doubt about our classification, the present Yugoslav situation removes that doubt utterly. Those savage Reds deliberately, premeditatedly, and with malice aforethought shot down and murdered unarmed and defenseless American soldiers, and our lack of official retaliation enrages most Americans. We continue to ship those abominable people
our scarce and valued food, supplies, and help of many sorts. Wonder what they have to do to arouse our official resentment? Guess they wonder that, also.
Our public relations ni"" 0""" getting a terrific front page display lately. One day I picked up a nationally known newspaper, and a leading editorial commented on the fact that Henry Wallace, the little man from Iowa who rattles around in the chair of Secretary of Commerce like a dried bean in an auditorium, has been unusually quiet of late, and wondered why. Before the ink was dry on that paper, Henry had busted loose, and made more headlines than at any time since the Chicago convention where they booted him out of the Vice Presidential nomination.
Hades and hot pitch broke loose, both here and abroad. Before the speech was delivered President Truman had told a press conference that he had read the coming Wallace speech, and approved the whole speech. In the words of Rochestsl-'(ft13f'5 what he said. that's what the man said, he said that." The transcript, so the newspapers say, prove that that is exactly what he said. So, when Henrywho is an acknowledged authority on destroying live stock and plowing under growing crops-cut loose with a foreign relations speech proposing a plan directly opposite to the plan that Secretary of State Byrnes has been in Europe fighting for, the upheaval that came like an oil field gusher from all 48 states in the union. can be well understood.
***
That great authority from Iowa simply suggested that we throw England-our only loyal ally in the past and the only nation that will be at our side when and if we have to fight again-overboard, turn the Eastern part of the world over to the tender mercies of Communist Joe, while we take charge of the Western half of the world. Alt of which is exactly the opposite of what that loyal little gentleman, patriot, and Arnerican-rights fighter, Jimmy Byrnes, has been battling for. Right quickly the little man from Missouri got busy denying that he had said what he had said. He reminded me of the politician who said he hated to speak through microphones because they always misquoted him. As this is written the battle rages. People tell each other about how mad Byrnes is, and what he called up Truman and told him, etc., but we don't know. An aroused public opinion forced Truman to fire Wallace.
(Continued on page 10)
(Continued from page 8)
Personally, \lly'allace's suggestion about having the Ruskies and ourselves divide world authority, would appeal to me'under one condition, and only one; that we send Henry over to the Eastern division to help Uncle Joe handle the job. I might vote for that. If he'd take Claude Pepper too, I'm almost sure I would.

When Henry Wallace and the other Henry Wallace type of thinkers get to advising us about our foreign relations, I think of how much better Jimmy Durante, the comic, could do it. On one of his programs Jimmy announced that he had been appointed to a job in the State Department at Washington. Fiis comedy partner said to him: "Why Jimmy, do you know anything about foreign relations?" And Durante replied: "FIe asks rne do I know anything about foreign relations - - - me wid tree uncles livin' in Brooklyn." That's a lot smarter than the Wallace idea; and it was all in fun while Wallace is serious.

Now let's get back for a paragraph or two to the story about "organized chaos." Here is a swell sample. A retail lumber concern we know ran an ad in its local papers the other day, which read: "We would like to sell you some lumber, but we haven't any, and besides we're busy reading rules and regulations like this (then follows the following OPA order, which is all in a single sentence; if you want to know why business men grow gray over night, read it) ! ***
"No maximum price regulation or order shall require the reduction of the established peacetime discounts on markups for the sale of any manufactured or processed commodity, treating as a single commodity for the purpose of this paragraph all commodities in a line of related commodities, which, for the purpose of establishing manufacturers and processors maximum prices, have been placed by the Office of Price Administration under a single regulation, if the retail, wholesale, or other distributive trade selling such commodity shows that the commodity constituted approximately one-half or more of the gross sales income of a majority of the persons errg"gdd in such trade in 1945 and that, in the first quarter of 1946, the deliveries of such commodity to such distributive trade were less than 100 percentum of the deliveries thereof in the corresponding quarter of 1945."
Carl Crow likens business and economic conditions in this country today to the confusion in languages that developed in Biblical days when they tried to build the Tower of Babel. If you doubt the comparison, read the above sentence over again. There are tens of thousands of others
just as bad. Is it any wonder the G.I. in the story reenlisted and went back to Europe where "the chaos is better organized." With every day that has passed since the fighting ceased, conditions at home have become more confused; and the sad part is it is all so unnecessary. ***
The stock market has been doing some fancy tumbling lately as you well know, and to hear the experts trying to explain why, or, to be more exact, to hear them explaining that they dont KNOW why, is really a laugh. Any child of ten who doesn't understand that "what goes up comes down," should be tapped for the simples. The stock market is so heavily inflated that it is top-heavy and falling of its own foolish weight. Everything else in this country is heavily inflated, wages, prices, profits, values of all kinds, and if you know any good prayers, brother, you'd better get busy and pray that a levelling off may come rather than a perpendicular drop which would blow all our heads off. "The fool hath said in his heart there is no God," sayeth the Scripture. And just as big a fool is the man who believes that everything can keep on going up forever. Everything is coming down some of these days, and our best hope is for moderation. {ct*
The market slumps have revived many of the depression and panic stories of the early 30's, and they have been busting into print. One is that the market got so low one day that the New York Stock Exchange was looking for dwarfs to mark the figures on the blackboards. It's simply inflation we're suffering from, and to have it curbed before it reaches more dangerous heights, is our best hope.
From 1933 to 1945 our gold stock in this country increased from three to twenty-two billions of dollars, or 633 per cent; our Federal Reserve notes increased from three to twenty-six billions, or 766 per cent; our money in circulation increased from six to twenty-nine billions, or 383 per cent; our checking accounts increased from fifteen to one hundred and six billions, or 607 per cent. Add to this what has happened to wages, to profits, to prices, to market values, and you've got a dangerous loaded cannon named INFLATION. Infation either softens out, or BUSTS out. It has been softening a little lately. To many it seems a catastrophe. But to the nation as a whole it could be in-

This young couple had become devoted students of that religious belief that held that when humans leave this world they are born again, perhaps some place else, perhaps in some other form; trans-migration of souls, they call it. And so serious were they in their devotion that they entered into a pact with one another, that if one died first, the other would, through their religious rites, try and establish a contact with the other, wherever he or she might have gone.
The husband died first. And soon the widow made her promised efiort to contact him in that other world to which he had gone. Great was her joy when the contact was ac-

This envelope contains a new page for the design section of the !?'eyerhaeuser 4-Square Home Building Service-a full color reproduction of the month's house-and floor plan with descriptive detail. This is a permanent addition to the ever-growing service, the encyclopedia of home planning information for the use of retail lumber dealers and their customers.

The next items of interest are working draw' ings, specifications, and material lists which are complete in every detail. rVith the easy estimating guides, included in the service, it is a simple matter to quickly estimate the cost of the house.
Each month, in one of the leading national shelter magazines, Veyerhaeuser is advertising the featured design and telling home planners about all the other designs of the service which are available for their study at the yards of retail lumber dealers.
And to help dealers tell their communities abdut the new house and retell the story of the complete home planning service, there is crisp, colorful material-giant posters, monthly mail. ers, ad mats, envelope enclosures.
This home building service sponsored by $Teyerhaeuser is an ever-growing, vital, expanding service. As new developments in design and materials prove themselves they will be incorporated in future designs. This constant enrlchment of the service will help lumber dealers maintain their position in the home building field.

Brown is gone, and many men in the trade are wondering who is going to get Brown's job.
There has been considerable speculation about this. Brown's job was reputed to be a good job. Brown's former employers, wise, grey-eyed men, have had to sit still and express amazement as they listened to bright, ambitious young men and dignified old ones seriously apply for Brown's job.
Brown had a big chair and a wide fat-topped desk covered with a sheet of glass. Under the glass was a map of the United States. He had a salary of thirty thousand dollars a year. And twice a year he made a trip to Coast and called on every one of the firm's distribu
He never tried to sell anything. Brown wasn't ly in the sales depar+ment. lle visited with the distrj tors, called on the dealers, and once in af\hile a little he anhis job talk to a bunch of salesmen. Backlat\ the swered most of the important comp wasn't to handle complaints.
Brown wasn't in the credit department either, but vital questions of credit usually got to him, somehow or other, and he would smoke, and talk, and tell a joke, and untwist the telephone cord, and tell the credit manager what to do.
'Whenever Mr. Wythe, the impulsive little president, working like a beaver, would pick up a bunch of papers and peer into a particularly troublesome and messy subject, he had a way of saying: "What does Brown say? What the heck does Brown say? Well, why don't you do it, then?" And that was disposed of.
Or when there was a difficulty that required quick action and lots of it, together with tact and lots of that, Mr. Wythe would say: "Brown, you handle that."
And then one day the directors met unofficially and decided to fire the superintendent of No. 2 mill. Brown didn't hear of this until the day the letter had gone. "What do you think of it, Brown?" asked Mr. Wythe. Brown said: "That's all right. The letter won't be delivered until tomorrow morning, and I'll get him on the phone and have him start East tonight. Then I'11 have his stenographer send the letter back here and I'll destroy it before he sees it.l'
The others agreed: "That's the thing to do."
Brown knew the business he was in. He knew the men he worked with. He had a whole lot of sense, which he apparently used without consciously summoning his judgment to his assistance. He seemed to think good sense.
Now he is gone, and men are applying for his job. Others are asking who is going to get Brown's job-bright, ambitious young men; dignified old men.
Men who are not the son of Brown's mother, nor the husband of Brown's wife, nor the product of Brown's childhood-men who never suffered Brown's sorrows, nor felt his jobs, men who never loved the things that Brown loved, nor feared the things he feared-are asking for his job.
they know that Brown's chair, and his desk, and under the glass top, and his pay envelope, are not 's job?
Don't they know they might as well apply to the Methodist Church for John Wesley's job?
Brown's former employers know it. For Brown's job, is where Brown is.

On August llth, 1946, there appeared on the front page of The Humboldt Times, published at Eureka, California, an open letter. It was signed by 42 vetetans of the Pacific Area in World War II, and was addressed to the strikers in the Redwood sawmills. Here are some excerpts from that letter:
"Not long ago we were called heroes. Now rve are called scabs and company rats because we want to earn a living' It is fine for you strikers to remain idle, you who spent the duration getting high wages, your pockets are well filled' But what about G. I. Joe? He didn't make overtime' During the war you strikers made as much in a week as the bemedaled warrior made in a month. Was your job more hazardous? While Joe slept in a fox hole and ate K Rations you enjoyed the comforts of civilized life. Do you strikers want to starve the veterans now?"
"Not only do we want to go back to work, but veterans all over the country are begging for places to live' Lumber is needed for houses. We intend to see that the veteran gets it. We will not soon forget how some of you men in the picket line were grateful to the lumber companies for securing draft exemption for you during the war' So when you are carrying that banner, chum, remember that you are keeping some G. I. from making a decent living' You are letting G. I. joe down. Did he let you down? If he had, the United States would be more fouled up today than you are
