manufacturers of the Pacific Northwest. This concern proposes to prefabricate and store such structures as oil derricks, radio towers, roof trusses and tank towers of wood, and merchandise them in direct competition with steel and other products. The policy, he said, is to distribute the products through lumber dealers.

Carl Bahr, president of the California Redwood Association, speaking on the "Redwood Trade Promotion Problem," said the Redwood manufacturers will seek the coooeration of the retail lumber dealer in their trade promotioh work. It will be their jobto help him to sell their product, and their principal approach to the consumer wil be through the retail lumber dealer. Their promotion work will help the dealer to build good.ivill for himself in his community.

He took issue with so much talk about making the cost of houses cheaper, saying that the quality of the lumber used in homes is more important than its cheapness. Redwood lumber costs more;'it is a quality produit and must be sold on the basis of quality.

E. C. Parker, Patten-Blinn Lumber Co., Los Angeles, addressed the convention on "Taxation and Increased Cost of Doing Business," and received hearty applause for his splendid talk on this important subject. In response to many requests from those attending the convention Mr. Parker's address is printed in full in this issue.

Kenneth Smith, Lumber & A1lied Products Institute. Los Angeles, was asked to substitute for Morgan J. Doyle, attorney, of San Francisco, in a talk on the "Robinson-Patman Bill." Mr. Smith said this bill undertakes to end discrimination in selling that gives one manufacturer or business man an advantage over another, and is an attempt to establish the old lines of cleavage betlveen the manufactur-

The whole purpose of the act seemed to him to be to stop the manufacturer or wholesaler from giving one customer a knife to stab his iompetitors with, and he believed the direct effect in the lumber business will be the prohibition of giving a wholesale discount to retailers.

President Harry Lake thanked J. O. Handley for his fine cooperation in putting over the convention, which was one of the best ever held in California. Looking back he said he was glad he had been given the opportunity of working for the Association during the past six or seven years. It had meant giving a lot of his time, but on the rvhole it was worth it, and he had gained a lot.

Mr. Lake said theaid of the secretaries of the local groups will be invaluable in working out the new setup of the State Association, and that he felt very optimistic about the future of the Association.

Chas. S. Dodge, MacDonald & Harrington, San Francisco, won the drarving for a plan book presented by the E. M. Dernier Service Bureau, Los Angeles.

The convention adjourned, at 5:15 p. m.

A big crowd was on hand at the regular monthly meeting of East Bay Hoo Hoo Club, held at the Athens Athletic Club, Oakland, on Monday evening, October 19, to hear Doug Montell, Associated Oil Company's sport-caster, tell how he and other football announcers do such a good job of broadcasting the games. Moving pictures of some of this season's games were shown, and the various plays were described by Mr. Montell. He afterwards answered many questions.

Compromise

The things I like are plain, and not of great Importance: snowflakes zigzagged slowly down Before a storm; the golden boats-turned brownOf autumn leaves upon a pond; and, straight Above my path, the wild duck passed; the gate With pales to click; the shady road to town; The herb jar's simple, burnished pewter crown; The coals forever changing in the grate.

I should like things of much significance, But what they are I cannot hope to guess I only know if, by some sudden change, I should forget, and freely this confess, I would be soundly pitied. So I glance At all the things that are, with friendliness.

-Sonia Novak in New York Times.

WHICH?

The liner was approaching the port of Athens and an old lady said to one of the sailors:

"Can you tell me what that white stuff is on those mountains ?"

"That is snow, Madam," said the sailor.

"I knew they were lying," she said, triumphantly. "They tried to make me think it was greece."

Howto Increase What We Give

"We simply cannot compel love to come to us. We simply invite it. When it comes, let us give thanks for it and see what we can do to attract still more. We should express affection, even if all we do is pat dogs. The more love we give away, the greater love we have to slx1g."Thomas Dreier.

Backing Our Statements With Quality Service

Ouronly recommendation is try a car of SUG.{R or PONDEROSA PINE from Kyburz, Calif., or Lakeview, Oregon.

Diphphiculties

Publishers of newspapers on the American frontier often had many handicaps to overcome in getting out their little weekly journals. Few, however, experienced a more discouraging start than a pioneer Colorado editor who explained his situation to his readers in the first issue of the paper, thus:

"We begin the publication of the Roccay Mountain Cyclone with some phew diphphiculties in the way. The type phounder phrom whom we bought our outphit phor this printing ophphice phailed to supply us with any ephs or cays, and it will be phour or phive weecs bephore we can get any. We have ordered the missing letters and will have to get along without them till they come. We don't lique the loox of this variety ov spelling any better thanour readers, but mistakes will happen in the best regulated phamilies, and iph the ph's and c's and x's and q's hold out we shall ceep (sound the c hard) the Cyclone whirling aphter a phashion till the sorts arrive. It is no joque to ss-i1's a serious aphair." (Western Newspaper Union.)

All men my brothers? I must love all these? 'Twill take some doing; but what must, must beThough God preserve me if, in their turn, They should all start loving me.

\(/alter Luff Resigns From Red River Staff Afiter 37 Years of Service

Walter Luft has resigned from the staff of The Red River Lumber Company after 37 years of service and as Chief oI the Westwood Volunteer Fire Department, effective November first. His career in the lumber industry has spanned its development from the ox team and raft to its modern motorized efficiency.

Born in Farnham, Surrey, England in 1870. Mr. Lufi came to this country in 1891, and at once headed for the pine woods of Wisconsin. He must have taken naturally to this new environment for he soon was driving a six-ox team in the woods. In 1894 he was .a scaler drawing one dollar a day, the highest paid man in the camp. From 1895 to 1899 he was employed by the Knapp Stout & Co. Companyx who operated six mills at Cedar Falls and Menominee and rafted their lumber to Iowa points and St. Louis.

In September, 1899, he came to The Red River Lumber Company at Akeley, Minnesota, as a grader, later transfcrring to the office where he was an accountant, later office nlanager. Mr.Luff was the resident manager who closed out the Red River loggittg and milling operations in Minnesota in 1917. Since that time he has been at Westwood, rvhere he was Plant Superintendent until 1933, when he went into the Sales Department.

Walter Luft is most widely known as the Chief of the Westwood Fire Department, which is rated by underwriters as one of the most efficient organizations, paid or volunteer, in Northern California. He had been Chief of the Akeley Fire Department and upon arrival in Westwood was given command of the Westwood forces consisting of 4O men and 2 trucks. Chief Luff has had a major part in the development of this force to its present status of 130 men, six trucks and a Fire Train with a crew of ten.

Chief Luff's leadership has inspired a high degree of loyalty efficiency in this crew of volunteer fire fighters. In 1934 with 39 alarms, the average elapsed time from alarm to out whistle was slightly less than 8minutes. In 1933 vrith .54 alarms the record was 6 minutes. At a recent test run 26 streams were placed in operation. The one phase of his record which Chief Lufi says is the most important is the fact that in eighteen years, which have seen some heavy conflagrations and many dangerous situations, not one man has been injured.

Mr. Luff is to be the guest of honor at a testimonial dinner before his departure for San Jose where he will make his future home.

* Editor: This is not an error, "Knapp Stout & Co. Company" was the official title they insisted upon.

IO,OOO,OOO FT. OF PINE BURNS

Fire destroyed 10,000,000 feet of Sugar and Ponderosa Pine in one of the storage yards of the West Side Lumber Company at Tuolomne, October 16. Seven million feet of the total was Sugar Pine. The loss was fully insured. The mill was undamaged, and the town of Tuolomne was saved from the fire which was swept in from the timber by a 70-mile wind. The plant was in operation again within a few days cutting lumber for pile foundations.
