7I COMINUOUS flowof m.oney is thefust requisite 1L of a continuous flow of 'nanpower and mat6riel to the fighfing fronts.

Money, raised in continuous War Bond sales, makes it possible to attack-to attack unceasingly until the Axis is forced into total, unconditional surrender!

Gqllup Poll Contacts Jcck Fcirlield

The mystery about the Gallup Poll has at last been solved ! They come out from time to time with their analyses of public opinion but no one has ever said he h4d been contacted or ever heard of anyone who had been. Last week Jack Fairfield, pur'chasing agent, Hayward Lumber & Investment Co., Los Angeles, made history. The Gallup Poll sought him out and asked his opinion on the coming presidential election. His fame is secure.

HARDWOODS FOR HOMES

When hardwoods are a€tain available for civilian trade, large guantities will be used for interior finish in moderately priced homes.

How do we know this ? Well, the trend was that way before the war, and it will continue when we are free to build homes again.

North ern California Retailers Annual lvleeting

Discussion of various problems affecting the retail lurnber industry and interesting talks by excellent speakers on topical subjects featured the Fifth Annual Meeting bf the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California. held at the Palace Hotel, San Francisco, October 20. All officers ritere re-elected, President Ray Clotfelter and Secretary Bernie Barber being chosen for "fourth terms."

The officers are Ray Clotfelter, W. R. Spalding Lumber Co., Visalia, president; J. H. Kirk, Southern Pacific Milling Co., San Luis Obispo, vice president; I. E. Horton, South City Lumber Co., South San Francisco, treasurer, and Bernard B. Barber, Fresno, secretary.

The executive committee was re-electerl. This consists of Ray Clotfelter, J. H. Kirk, I. E. Horton, George Adams, Noah Adams Lumber Co., Walnut Grove, and Walter Peterson, Bakersfield Building Materials Co., Bakersfield.

The new board of directors is as follows: San Francisco County-F. L. Dettmann, San Francisco; Alameda County -Frank G. Duttle, Oakland; Peninsula-Ed Pohle, San Jose, Z. T. Thorning, Redwood City, and I. E. Horton, South San Francisco; Coast Counties-Lloyd Hebbron, Santa Cruz, Earle Johnson, Watsonville, and J. H.

Business Session

Secretary Bernard B. Barber in his annual report said the membership had grown from less than 100 at the reorganization of the Association to 306 retail lumber dealers, plus 62 subscribers to the weekly news letter. The report showed a substantial cash ,balance, but the secretary

emphasized the necessity for a much larger cash balance as a reserve for dealing with the many problems that will face the industry in the future.

The report also announced that the legislative committee will be active on all legislative matters, both State and National, affecting the retail lumbermen; and that the committee, consisting of George Adams, Chairman, George C. Burnett, Robert Fuller, Wendell Robie and Henry Laws, has instructed the secretary to represent the industry at Sacramento when the Legislature convenes.

The secretbry expressed the hope for greater interest in the affairs of the Association by individuals, who have been very busy during the war period with their own pro,blems, and said all are looking forward to the time when more meetings can be held in various localities.

Dis,cussion on a new retail markup of $5.00 and 25 per cent, believed to be under consideration by the Office of Price Administration, resulted in a unanimous resolution that the markup remain as it is. Those joining in the discussion included E. S. Brush, W. K. Kendrick, Ira E. Horton, J. H. Kirk, Wendell Robie, Fritz Dettmann, Charles Shepard, Frank Minard, Mike Tynan, Elmore King, George Burnett and S. P. Ross.

In the matter of the proposed California OPA sub-committee, it was resolved after discussion to refer the matter of suggesting representatives to the executive committee. The OPA proposal is to appoint a committee of seven, four of whom will represent country yards and three the metropolitan yards.

Another resolution requested that members contribute what they can to build up a Postwar Fund.

A resolution of sympathy was ordered to be sent to the widow of Merle D. Bishop, who passed arvay in Berkeley, September 24.

,George M. Comrvall, publisher of The Timberman, spoke briefly on the probable postwar lumber demand from abroad.

Shall I ask the brave soldier ! Who fights bY mY'side, In the cause of mankind If our creeds agree?

Shall I give uP the friend I have valued and tried If he kneel no,t before The same altar with me?

-Sir Thomas Moore.

The above reminds me of the story I enjoyed more than any of the thousands of good stories that went the rounds during World War I. It rvas about the Jewish soldier who was dying, and there being no Rabb near' a Catholic priest was called. He knelt beside the dying boy, and said to him: "Do you believe in the Father, the Son, and'the Holy Ghost?" The Hebrew boy said: "Mine Gott! I'm dyin' an' he esks me riddles !"

*{<*

And I've had occasian recently to frequently recite the famous story that all of you oldsters will recall, of the negro G.I. in World War I who met a Gerrnan soldier head-on' The German thrust with his bayonet, and the G.I. dodged' Then the G.I. swung his razor. "Never touched me !" the German yelled. "No?" said the G.I. "Well, you jes' wait til you shake you' haid."

Someone sent me " ,.; ,t.t ,n"a goes good. rt says: God, give me symPathY and sense' And help me keeP mY courage high; God give me calm and confidence, And-please-a twinkle in mY eYe."

-Sarah T. Munro.

This war proves to me something that I have long believed; namely, that it is in life rather than in death that man needs God. In the foxholes as in the stricken bomber plummeting to earth, man turns to that unseen Power he may have thought little of at any previous time in his career. Yes, it is not in death that man needs Deity (for ' when that comes, whatever is to be, will be) but rather while the heart beats high and warm that he needs the faith that Life and Love defy the scythe of death; that breasting the waves of the Dark River, they rise triumphant on the Other Shore. To many men the God idea is an absolute necessity in time of stress and strain; it is a

splendid sheet anchor; a still, srnall voice that cries peace to their troubled souls.

In days like these $/e can all of us appreciate the deep wisdom of the words that the writer William Saroyan puts in the mouth of one of his female characters in his book' "The lluman Comedy." She is distinguishing between the works of the good and the bad man, and she says: 'The good man WILL SEEK TO TAKE THE PAIN OUT OF THINGS; the evil man will drive pain deeper into things"' In a world more racked with pain than ever before in its history, taking the pain out of things-all things possibleshould be the magnificent ambition of all good men' Could you think of a more perfect mark to shoot at in all our po*t*", planning-a philosophy that all GOOD men could approve-than "taking the pain out of things'" {<*{<

Many times since Hitler sent his destructive hordes out to enslave the world, word has come back concerning the rather mysterious death of some high officer in the ranks of the Boche. It used to seem strange to military minds that officers of such high degree should have been so exposed to slaughter. But gradually understanding came; the insidious report that mayhap it was NOT bullets from enemy guns that brought their death. In fact, there is every reason to believe that the fiendish fanatic who struck at the heart of the world, has been continually sending letters to Uriah. Remember Uriah, in the Bible? It seerrs that King David took a liking to Uriah's wife. And, Uriah being in the way, David wrote a letter to Joab, his general, and sent it by the hand of Uriah, and, according to the Book of Samuel, the letter read: "Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten and die." (That's the kind of a guy David was') And so Adolph, the Axman, finds, when he has some Prussian General to get rid of, that the easy way is to give him a letter, and send him up front to deliver it. Yes, we learn many things besides good, from the Bible.

***

The members of the present Supreme Court of the United State no doubt resemble Brutus in that they are "all, all honorable men." But their own bad opinions of one another, expressed frequently in the past year in the public prints, would seem to indicate that their legal perspicacity falls far behind their honor. They have taken turn belaboring and belittling one another and the court, itself. I must confess that I am fully convinced that the present court is every bit as bad as its members declare. I might go even farther

(Continued from Page 8) and state that so far a I can judge from eveything on the subject I hear and read, that the nation generally accepts without reservation or demurrer. their own critical verdict. Yet, while agreeing that the critical members of the court are truthful in their self-condemnation, the American people were never in their history more despairing concerning a governmental matter than they are today at the sad and almost unbelievable level to which this once glorious tribunal has fallen. It proves on'e thing: that men picked because of their political beliefs rather than their high talents as jurists, do NOT make a great tribunal of justice.

Said rhomas Jefferson; ,:rri "we have more machinery of Government than is necessary; too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious." Franklin Roosevelt said the same thing in public speeches many times in 1932. And, when that subject is raised today, bo'th Jefferson and Roosevelt follow the example of "Old Man River." They t'don't say nuthin'."

Soon we shall be going about the normal things of life again. As the roar of battle dies away, we shall turn our faces to the rebuilding and the upbuilding of our world. Again, as we go about our accustomed tasks with the added burdens that the war destruction has wrought, we shall attempt to dig beneath the words of the great Greek, Themistocles, and find what it is that makes cities grow. You recall that once at a great festival when many had added their music and poetry to the enjoyment of the occasion, they called on Themistocles to do his stuff. And he said to them: "I cannot play upon any stringed instrument, but I can tell you how to make a city grow." Empires have risen and fallen into the dust; dynasties have sprung into arrogance and power, and fallen into disuse and decay since Themistocles uttered that boast. And through all those centuries of time his secret of "how to make a city grow" has been something for thinking men to guess at. But

Lower rtacking corts-just solid edge-to-edge staclcing in the simplest form.

when this war ends the builders of this entire nation will go back, each in his own way, to figuring the thing out. And Mister ! Whether it is done the way Themistocles meant or not, one. thing is certain; o'ur cities are going to grow as they probably never grew before.

One thing I am sure of even beyond the slightest chance or shadow of a doubt, and that is that when the war ends there will arise a building tide in this country such as the most optimistic prophets fail to glimpse. All these years of no building, no real remodeling, no real repairing, just millions and millions of people standing still with regard to buiiding things and building needs. I tell you that you can put your estimates on building to come as high as telephone book figures, and al.t**tl} still fall short-far short.

We customarily think in terms of the millions of new homes that we all know are to be in demand. But we fail to take in the millions upon millions'of other buildings, business buildings of all kinds, of all shapes, of all sizes, of all sorts of materials that the sons of men are going to be crying aloud for. I tell you that there will be tall buildings and small buildings, wide buidings and thin buildings, high buildings and low buildings, and they will spring up in every block, in every nook and corner of this land. Barring an economic and financial flop, these things shall be. They are just as certain as though they had already occurred. Don't doubt it. Get ready for a building tide the like of which the world has never before dreamed of. +**

The philosophy of the war worker in the following story is understandable. He asks for ice cream, and the drug store man says he has none. The war worker says: "For the first time in rny life I'm making enough money to buy the things I want, and now I can't get them. Just now I asked a man for butter, he had no butter. I asked for other things. He did not have them. Now you have no ice crerun. WHEN I WAS ON RELIEF I ATE WELL."

Seven Directions to L-335 Amended

Washington, October 16-Certain species and grades of lgpber, available at present in greater quantities than are needed by the military and by consumers placing certified orders, were released today by the War Production Board to all users of lumber.

Hardwoods and other species not controlled by Directions 1 through ,5 of the lumber control order, L-335, and the output of small mills producing species covered by these directions may now be sold by mills on uncertified and unrated orders if such sales does not interfere with the filling of certified orders. Distributors, in turn, may buy this lumber on uncertified and unrated orders, and may sell it in a similar fashion.

This freer flow of lumber on uncertified and.unrated orders from mills to distributors, and from distributors and mills to consumers is provided by amendments to Directions 1 through 7 of L-355. In all cases, however, certified orders continue to take precedence over uncertified orders.

Two factors are chiefly responsible for the fact that the present supply ol certain species and grades is in excess of certified consumption, WPB said. Class I consumers under L-335; who are authorized to buy specific quantities of lumber on certified and rated orders, buy the species and grades most suitable for their purposes. fn some instances, claimant agencies have not been able to use the full amounts of lumber fequested by them and authorized by WPB in the third and fourth quarters of. 1944. As a result of these factors, the movement of lumber, particularly less desirable grades in small mills, has been slowed up, WPB said.

Release of this lumber is necessary to prevent possible shut down of small mills, which do not have the facilities for drying and dressing their unsold lumber and cannot afford to carry it in inventory, WPB explained. Greater leeway in distribution will permit Class I consumers to buy lum,ber in addition to the amount authorized. and to some extent meet demands of small ,consumers.

Directions 1 through 7 and ,changes made today's amendments follow.

Directions 1 through 5 cover specified species on the West Coast and the western pine regions;

redwood; southern yellow pine; and red or yellow cypress. In each dire'ction, mills over a certain size (measured by production) are required to give military orders precedence over other orders (except those rated AAA) up to specified percentages of their anticipated monthly shipments of the aftected species.

Percentages remain unchanged except for redwood, for which up to 40 per cent of expected monthly shipments, in stead of up to 6O per cent, must now be reserved for military orders. The higher percentage has been found unnecessary in view of the volume of redwood produced, and the current direct military requirements, WPB said.

Mills smaller than those designated in each direction may now ship lumber on uncertified and unrated orders to consumers as well as distributors.

Today's amendments add the Veterans Administration to the military agencies whose orders are given preferential treatment.'This change is made to conform to the policy established in the "GI Bill of Rights" which places the Veterans Administration second in importance ohly to the Army and Nlavy in obtaining priorities assistance for materials and services.

The Amended Directions 1-5 also permit wholesale distributors to extend the certification of the Central Procuring Agency of the U. S. Corps of Engineers, in placing orders that are to be given military preference.

Freer flow of lumber through distribution yards is provided by Direction 6, as amended today. Distributors are permitted to receive and to sell, on uncertified and unrated orders, species not covered by Dire,ctions 1-5, and the following grades. of species covered by Directions 1-5.

No. 4 or lower grades of Douglas fir, southern yellow pine, western hemlock and Sitka spruce; E grade of Douglas fir and western hemlock; redwood dunnage and No. 3 or lower grades of ,cypress.

The E grade of Douglas fir and western hemlock, No. 3 and lower grades of cypress and redwood dunnage formerly were not included in Direction 6. All hardwood species are now permitted to move through distributors' hands on un-

Success Through Fcrilure

(By an Unknown Author)

f attribute what success I have had in rea"hing the goal of my earlier ambitions, to my failures. We learn mighty little in this life, from success. Success feeds the ego; failure chastens it. Success makes you look up, and the sun dazzles your eyes; failure forces you to look down, and watch your step.

The man who can fail and learn, who can try and still go on, is the man who succeeds in the end. The failures are the men who succeed too early and too easily, or the men who fail and let it bowl them over-the men who quit.

Below the Belt

A clergyman was being shaved by a barber who had evidently become nervous from a night's dissipation. Finalty he cut the preacher's chin, and the reverend looked up at the guy with the razor, and remarked reproachfully:

Around the narrow bend the swerving stage, 'Car€ens and turns, resumes its drunken pace, The whip flings out in writhing, snapping rage, Thick clouds ol dust begrime the driver's face. And others go the curving, shade-ficked way; A herder, leading sheep to distant fold, A thief, a rogue, a priest in sackcloth grey; A miner with his bags of virgin gold. But now, in lone and solitary state, The road draws close it cape of dust-choked weeds; The oaks bend low in grief at the long wait, For men, and carts, and reckless, daring deeds. The wagon-ruts grow faint, and then are gone, In memory alone, the past moves on.

Love Knows No Fcrvorites

By Margaret Morrison

ft must be admitted that love is more practical than fear. It harmonizes, nourishes, beautifies, constructs, and maintains good. Love is never idle nor unernployed in blessing or in serving.

Love, in its wisdom, withholds not needful rebuke, but administers it with the spirit that heals. .Love knows no favoritism, but shines alike on all because it IS love, and can do no other.

Love is holy, whole, or healthful, and confers health because it sees scientifically the infinitude of good, and is aware of omnipotence. Love is serene in conscious security, and remains unshadowed, uninterrupted, in the midst of seeming hatred and malice.

Love is light, transforming gloom into glory, lifting burdens, pointing the path of freedom and p.rosperity. Love is law, irresistible in its operation.

"Far from ending mv interest and activity in national forest affairs," Dr. Compton declared, "the presidency of this great institution in the center of the timber country of the Northwest will add to the opportunities for a constructive contribution to forest conservation, the permanent productive use of forest lands ar'd the progress of forest industries. These are all of vital interest to the Pacific Northwest which, by reason of its abundant resources and expanding agriculture and industry at the new gatell'ay to the Pacific and the Orient, is destined to play an increasingly important part in the progress of this country."

Dr. Compton has become an internationally known figure in industry and forest affairs as result of his long leadership in these fields.

His academic achievements have paralleled his industrial activities. He is a graduate of the College of Wooster, Ohio, where he was noted as an athlete as well as scholar, winning letters of football, baseball, tennis and basketball in a single year. He holds degrees of Ph.B., M.A., and LL.D. from the College of Wooster, as well as a Ph.D. degree from Princeton University and LL.B. from Hamilton College. In 191 5, he was instructor in economics at

Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and from 1934 to 1941 was pro{essor of economics in the George Washington University here. He has been a frequent lecturer before scientific, engineering and educational bodies.

Revision of \(/estern Softwood

Shingles Regulation

Washington, October 19-Revision of the rvestern softwood shingles regulation so as to ltring rvithin its coverage redu'ood, fir, hemlock, pine and spruce shingles was announced today by the Offi,ce of Price Administration.

Previously, this regulation covered only red ceclar shingles, rvhich constitute almost all the shingles produced from western softwoods.

In effect, this action, efie,ctive October 23, 1944, sets up a single regulation covering all Western Softrvood shingles. It gives the ner.v shingles the san-re f.o.b. mill prices already in effect for red cedar shingles ancl requires the use of dry red cedar shingles weights in computing deliv_ ered prices.

Only in the case of redwood shingles does this actior.r represent a price increase, which amounts to B5 cents a square. Fir, hemlo,ck, pine and spruce shingles have here_ tofore been priced under special pricing orders, but these prices have always coincided with red cedar shingle prices, so that today's action makes no change in their price level.

A further change affecting redwood shingles is the re_ quirement that delivered prices for sales outside of California shall be computed bv using Seattle, Wash., freight rates and dry red cedar shingle weights. Formerly, Eureka, Calif., u'as the basing point. On eastern shipments, OpA said, 28 cents of the 35 cents per square increase in the mill

price will be offset ,by lower freight charges resulting from a reduction made in the authorized rveight on which freight charges are computed and the estabiishment of a new basing point. Any price increase at the retail level on these shipments will be negligible.

llowever, today's action provides that on shipments of redwood shingles to many California destinations, Eureka, Calif., rvill be the basing point as in the past. As a result, retail prices in California will reflect the increased mill price.

These new delivered prices for redrvood shingles will average no higher than the present prices for red cedar shingles delivered to the same points, OPA said.

To Manqge Sacrqmento Brcnch of Calilornic Builders Supply Co.
