CHESTER D. MOORE ENTERS BUSINESS IN SAN FRANCISCO
Chester D. Moore, office manager of the West Coast Lumber Trade Extension Bureau since that body was organized, has bought an interest in a storage and freight forwarding concern in San Francisco and will move to California-on Novemb.er I to take over the management of the enterprise.
"I am resigning my work with the Bureau and leaving the Pacific Northwest with regret," Mr. Moore stated, "and my only reason for the move is that I have what I believe to be an unusual opportunity to go into business for myself. I have watched and worked with the Bureau while it has grown from an idea into a going concern with 117 membeis and an income of nearly $400,000 a year. My share in the growth and accomplishm.ents of the Bureau will cause me to look back on my association with the organization as one of the most pleasurable and interesting periods of my life."
With C. J. Hogue, field manager of the Bureau, Mr. Moore has carried the burden of administration for the organization since the resignation of Henry Schott, manager, more than a year ago. During this period, the Bureau has experienced its greatest growth.
Before joining the newly organized staff of the Bureau in February, 1926, Mr. Moore was statistician for the West Coast Lumbermen's association and manager of the box department of that body. Mr. Moore originally went with the association for the purpose of developing a uniform cost accounting system for the lumber industry.
This work was successfully prosecuted to the extent that now more than 100 of the larger lumber organizations use the same accounting system. This is said to be the only lumber group accounting system ever installed that has been successful.
