An executive of our company stopped off at Shreveport ) recently to see the Allen Manufacturing Company, makers and distributors of doors.
"Here are some remarkable tests that have been made of Laminex doors," he told them. "But," said Mr. Compton, of the Allen Company, "we've done some testing ourselvis," and then he proceeded to show these sectional boats with bottoms of Laminex three-ply panels. They had been in use for over a year-in water part of the time, then left out in the Louisiana sun to dry. Careful examination showed no evidence of checking, peeling or separation.
