Leonard C. Hammond Makes Business Survey

"California's Redwood lumber industry is facing 1938 with confidence in its ability to better serve the construction industry, particularly in the home building field," Leonard C. Hammond, president of the Hammond Redwood Company, declared in San Francisco prior to his departure on a three weeks' survey tour of the middle west, east and south.

"While business has been quiet during the past three months," Mr. Hammond continued, "the Redwood operators have maintained a strong production and shipment schedule, filling a heavy backlog of early 1937 orders and strengthening inventories previously depleted. Stocks have been brought to the best condition in more than a year, assuring buyers of prompter shipments and access to more complete lines of all grades."

Mr. Hammond pointed out that all of the Redwood manufacturers were pointing toward 1938 as a home building year. Redwood prices have been firm and are expected to remain firm. There are no signs of any business upsets likely to cause erratic price changes. The general consensus of business analysts is that home building in 1938 will exceed that oI 1937 by at least five per cent. This steadiness of the market in quality lumber should give retailers and prospective home builders a feeling of confidence in Redwood values.

While in the East, Mr. Hammond will invite a large number of lumbermen to plan visits to California during the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition, in which the lumber industry contemplates an important participation.
