How Lrumber Looks

San Francisco, October S.-Waterfront employers tonight were selecting committees to reopen contract negotiations Thursday with West Coast maritime unions in the 68-day-old waterfront' srike.

The Waterfront Employers' Association will be represented by 18 members of stevedoring and shipping firms and the Pacific. Shipowners Association by 10 shipping men..

A spokesman for the striking fnternational Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union said the ILWU will go to the bargaining table with the same demands they had when the strike began Septernber 2.

Under a formula agreed on by all parties last night, any settlement reached will be underwritten by the national CIO and San Francisco Employers'Association.

Lumber shipments of 414 mills reporting to the National Lumber Trade Barometer. National Lumber Manufacturers Association, were IO.2 per cent below production for the week ended October 23, 1948. In the same week new orders of these mills were 16.2 per cent below production. Unfilled order files of the reporting mills amoun! to 37 per cent of stocks. For rqporting softwood mills unfilled orders are equivalent to 22 days' production at the current rate, and gross stocks are equivalent to 58 days' production.

For the year-to-date, shipments of reporting identical mills were 0.02 per cent below production; orders lvere 1.5 per cent below production.

Compared to the average corresponding week of 193539, production of reporting mills was 50.2 per cent above; shipments were 38.5 per cent above; orders were 38.4 pei cent above. Compared to the corresponding week in 1947, production of reporting mills was 0.8 per cent below; shipments were 6.4 per cent below; and new orders were 9.8 per cent below.

The Western Pine Association for the week ended October 23, 102 mills reporting, gave orders as 60,826,000 feet, shipments 63,491,0@ feet, and pioduction 76,327,A0O feet. Orders on hand at the end of the week totaled 179,951,000 feet.

"Lady," said the meat market man to the customer, "there ain't no such thing as ten cents worth of .salami."

Thousands of gags about the price of meat, going the rounds. The above is my choice of all those I've heard. The next best one in my book is this: The customer says to the meat man-"I want a roast of your best prime beef. about six ribs thick." And the butcher asked: "How do you propose to finance the purchase?" He knew nobody had that much cash.

Jimmy Durante has revived his old one about the lady who said to the butcher: "I want some cherce (that's Brooklyn for choice) steaks, a cherce roast, some cherce ribs, and some cherce chops, and deliver them today." The butcher says: "I'll sell 'em to you, but I can't deliver 'em; you just bought -"*n"1.";

I was drug out the other night to hear some highbrow, high falutin music, played for an over-dressed crowd of hypocrites who made believe they liked to be punished that rvay. Reminds me of Ed Gardner's description of Grand Opera, which, he says, is where, when a man gets stabbed, instead of bleeding-he sings.

And while we're still talking along this line, have you heard the one about the guy who bought his wife one of those wonderful new kitchen sinks where there is a dish washer on one side and an automatic garbage dispenser on the other. The first time she tried to work it she got crossed up, with the result that the garbage machine ground up all her dishes; but she had the cleanest garbage in the city.

John Temple Graves writes about some of the mixed and confused metaphors that were uttered by over-enthusiastic political speakers during the recent months of campaigning. One speaker said that a certain proposition he was opposing "had all the ear-marks of an eye-sore." Another speaker who was trying to show his eloquence said: "As I look down the untrodden paths of the past, I see dimly in the future the footprints of an unseen hand." The average speaker who tries to wax eloquent-just waxes'

And whenever you hear one of these breast-thumpers announce in dramatic fashion that he is for human rights against property rights, you know without asking that he is a demagogue; and a demagogue is-alrnost alwafs either

They tell of a famous Russian singer who recently arrived in this country. "What a relief," he cried, "not to have to sing through *y nose any longer." "But why should you have to sing through your nose?" he was asked. "In Russia," he said, "t.,1 Y.Yd open your mouth?"

Tolstoi, who knew the Russian nature very well, indeed, wrote: "A Russian is conceited precisely because he knows nothing and cares to know nothing, since he does not believe it possible to know anything fully."

Sikorsky, the famous l.rl":, of airplanes, is atso a philosopher of high degree. He thinks the philosophy of the savage is becoming the guiding rule of our civilization. When a savage was asked, "What is evil?" he said, "Evil is if someone should steal my wife and cattle." When asked, "What is good?" the savage replied, "Good is if I shall steal someone's wife and cattle."

I lend an understanding ear to the fellow who says he is in favor of picketing the White House and Congress with placards reading: "f want a subsidy, too." Just what act of God it was that said that some of our citizens should be paid for doing nothing while the rest of us have to sweat for what we get, is hard for a lot of us slow thinking people to get through our heads. There might have been some excuse for it in time of war, but in time of peace my small mentality fails to comprehend why the farmer, or anyone else, is more entitled to a government subsidy than a lumber journal, a peanut stand, a sawmill, or any other business unit. Today we have deliberate overproduction of many of the necessities of life, just to get the government money. Some of these days we other folks may start a drive to get a subsidy, too. We are told that all of us were created equal; later on some of us got subsidies, and there the equality ended.

There are two simple ;"; .: bring down the price of food that so much hell is being raised about. They are simple, direct ways, and any sound thinker knows they would work. One is to cut out the subsidies; the second is to lengthen the industrial work week, rather than shorten it. These two things would do the trick, if we really want to do it. But you didn't hear any of the presidential candidates mention these matters during the recent campaign, did you? :k * *

How is your town on local pride and, ambition? Without

those two ingredients, you know, it wll never advance very far. A wise man f used to know was in the habit of remarking to citizens generally.: "Your city might not be wise in planning to make itself the biggest city in the country, but there is no good reason why it should not plan and work to make itself the BEST city in the world." And a city can do that, without being overly large. Quality does not always come in thelargest packages-remember?

Pericles, of Athens, one of the greatest teachers and preachers of civic pride in all history, was the author of this historic remark: "No Athenian should ever confess that he neglected public service for the sake of private fortune." Wouldn't have made much of a New Dealer, wouldhe?

Sages through the ages have universally agreed that to get the proper perspective of either thinking or geography, one should climb to a high vantage point, and look down. Most of us struggling humans who would-use our minds to best advantage, make the mistake of putting entirely too restrictive horizons on our thoughts, afraid to use above the valley-dwellers'horizon. I like the eastern wfiting that said of a certain thinking man, that "he dwelt in the land of vast spaces, where the winds of God could blow all the sounds and scents of everything that had been, is, or is to be, upon his ready senses."

There is a lot of difference between before and after in all things, but particularly is the difference noticeable in politics. When England was getting ready to vote socialist, the voters were rocked to sleep by the promise of less work, more pay, more leisure, more enjoyrrrent fbr all men. Nobody dared to whisper otherwise. But note the difference today. Recently Sir Stafford Cripps, the head man and big brain of British socialism, speaking to

an audience of laboring people, told thqm this: "The figure of profits distributed by corporations is about one-tenth the total of wages, so that even if corporation profits were reduced by a quarter-a very drastic cut-it would mean an average addition to wages and salaries of no more than fourpence to the pound.' (About 2 cents to the dollar.) There is only one way by which we can with a given volume of employment increase ow real standard of living, and that is BY EACH OF US PRODUCING MORE." So now the British workers are being told the truth, just as the workers in this country are being told, that increased production is the only possible road to genuine and extended prosperity. Had such words been spoken to the British workers BEFORE election, it is very doubtful if they would have a socialistic form of government today. The will-o-the-wisp.of less work and_rrore pay was what gotthem'

I heard this statement made the other day: "The American nation spends twice as much for liquor as it does for education."' I haven't looked it up. I don't intend to look it up. The statement shocked me so that f'm afraid to look it up. I feel about it like the fellow did who was searching his pockets for his last dollar, and had been through all his pockets but one. When he was asked why he didn't look in that pocket,. too, he said he was afraid to because if he looked, and it wasn't there, he'd drop dead.. If it is really true that we spend twiqe as much for liquor as we do for education, then, indeed, we must be well on our way back to chaos and old night; back to that bourn where the woodbine twineth and the whangdoodle mourneeth. If it is true we should change the words of that grand old song to read "The land of the free and the home of the boozer." If it is true, we just don't deserve the blessings of freqdom; or any reasonable portion thereof.

Enlarge Forestry Services

Portland,. Ore., Oct. ?8.-Enlargement of the Western Pine association's forestry services into the field of entomology, disease control and fire protection was announced today by Ernest L. Kolbe,.chief forester.

He said that Dale C. Prentice, 31, member of .the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine staff, will join the association November 1 to head the new service. As a forest protection engineer, Prentice will advise on insect risk ratings of timber, salvage cuttings and blister rust and fire control measures. He will work with'company tree markers in the ll-state Western Pine region.

"With the enlargement of its service into the entomological field," Kolbe said, "the Western Pine industry is furthering its program of greater emphasis on forest conservation and the resultant long-range benefits of greater recreation facilities and lumber production economies.

Prentice is joining the association's forestry department at an opportune time to assist in control programs on de-

foliating insects which are now threatenirtg over a million acres of commercial timber in the Western Pine region."

Prentice, a war-time Army Air Force medium bomber pilot who saw service in the European thedter, graduated from the University of California forestry school last June. Interspersed by study and army service, he has been associated with the Bureau of Entomology's Forest Insect Laboratory of Berkeley, Calif., for the past ten years in blister rust control, insect detection survey and risk marking work in California forests. Since Jurre of this year he has been with the bureau on timber loss surveys in northern California and southern Oregon timberlands. He will operate from,the Portland headquarters of the association.

Pacilic Logging Congress Holds Annual Meeting

Portland, Ore., Oct. 2G-Expressed belief that logging and lumbering will ,be a permanent operation on the Pacific coast on a sustained yield basis keynoted the 4fth annual meeting of the Pacific Logging Congress, oldest and largest organization of its kind in the country, which ended its three-day session here today.

But the optimism was tempered by a warning from Kenneth Smith, opening speaker, that "there exists grave doubt that this country will not become a collectivist state." Smith, assistant to the president of the Pacific Lumber Company, San Francisco, said "we are definitely headed that way, and there is promise of a hard fight ahead to save us from nationalization of our natural resources which is the first step."

He told the more than 1200 Western loggers that the lumber industry must "resell our free enterprise system to our people or it won't be here." "The industry," he said, "can no longer rely on a program of trial and error, but must explore to the utmost our last great frontier-the field of human relations."

F. L. Thompson of the Roaring River Logging Company, Scio, Ore., and president of the congress, opened the arinual meeting with the assertion that the Pacific Northwest forests, last great stand of timber in the United States, will continue indefinitely to more than supply the nation's needs for lumber and wood products in the years to come.

Thompson emphasized the importance of the logging industry to the northwest and the nation and reviewed its development and gradual progress westward across the continent.

Emmit R. Aston of the Biles-Coleman Lumber Company, Omak, Wash., told the assembled loggers that the public must be educated on the importance of 4dequate road systems for handling the transportation of logs from timber to mill. \eed for radio protection of private timber'resources was stressed by Robert A. Olin of Potlatch Forest Industries, Inc., Lewiston, Idaho.

The .congress heard a sweeping condemnation of present tax structures during a panel discussion of loggers' problems. Stuart Moir. forest counsel for the Western Forestry and Conservation association, called for a system under

which taxation is based on "the productivity and the quality of the land." "IJnless some sound system is worked out, we'll be in for real trouble," he warhed.

Nels Rogers, Oregon State forester, pointed out that the growing. of commercial forests increasingly will become a public-ownership problem unless a sound basis of taxation is worked out. He urged a "sound system" of land classification for use by assessors.

Ernest L. Kolbe, chief forester for the 'We3tern Pine association, told the forum that preliminary figures showed 1,300,000 acres of timber in the Western Pine Region are being threatened by the spruce budworm, chiefly in Oregon.

The panel speakers were introduced by Norman Jacobson, forester for the St. Paul and Tacoma Timber company, who revealed that Oregon, the nation's leading lumber producer by volume, is surpassed by neighboring Washington state in gross sales yalue. In 1947, Oregon's total was $588,000,000 and Washington's $777,000,000. The difference he attributed to a greater number of pulp, paper, veneer and remanufacturing plants in Washington whose products have a higher unit sales value.

W. E. Johnson, mechanical engineer for the design division of 'the General Electric company's plutoniummaking works at Richland, Wash., declared three major problems face the designers of nuclear e-nergy power plants for industrial use. First is the effect of radioactivity on human tissue, he said and listed the others as the natural dearth of neutrons in nature and the fact that neutrons affect practically all metals exposed to them, making construction of a power plant housing extremely difficult. The neutrons, Johnson said ,are capable of changing copper irrto aluminum, then back to radio-active copper and then into other metals before they becpme stabilized.

The congress leveled a charge at "subversive labor leaders" in voting "full and wholehearted support" to strike-hit Pacific coast waterfrbnt employers and shipowners. in a resolution, the loggers declared the Waterfront Employers Association and the Pacific American Shipowner3 Association are unable to reach union agreei.nents because of "tactics subversive and otherwise of

World's Biggest Mould:ng Plant Building in Arizona

Last June 15th, fire destroyed two huge lumber using buildings belonging to Southwest Lumber Mills, Inc., at McNary, Arizona. One building was the planing mill and box factory; the other a Ponderosa Pine moulding plant that rvas believed to be the largest thing of its kind in the world: Both these big buildings were completely destroyed.

Both are being rebuilt, and on a grander scale than the previous ones. Two steel buildings, each 180 by 28O feet, will stand side by side. One will be the planing mill and box factory, the other the moulding and venetian blind slats factory. This moulding plant will be one-fourth bigger in size and production capacity than the one the fire wiped out, so it will probably be the unquestioned champion factory for the making of mouldings. These units are adjuncts of the major size sawmill which this same concern operates at McNary, the lumber to supply them both coming from the Southwest sawmill.

ft is reported that all the machinery and equipment for these two buildings has already been secured and is in store awaiting the completion of the buildings. Concrete and steel is being used exclusively in the construction of these mammoth lumber consuming units. They will stand side by side, with a paved space for loading, 210 feet wide, between them. The two new buildings' will each have 50,000 feet of floor space, and the moulding plant will have a monthly capacity of 35 freight cars of finished

mouldings and venetian blind slats. All floors are concrete. The new units will be finished by Jan. lst.

Southwest Lumber Mills Inc.; also operate sawmills at Flagstaff and Overgaard, Arizona, and a huge planing mill and power plant at Flagstaff..

A Talk With Bill

Bv

H. V. Simpson, Executive Vice President \flest Coast Lumbermen's Association

Several years ago I participated in a sale to the United Kingdom of about 240,000,000 board feet of Douglas fir lumber. It was the biggest sale I'd ever been involved in, and in some respects the hardest one.

The'other day I worked just as hard to keep a man from throwing 1,60 board feet of Douglas fir lumber on a bonfire. f'm not sure but what it rvas a more important job.

This man is a friend of mine, a carpenter and builder. Call him Bill. He's lean as a fence brown by the sun. He's a stickler

The house he was building lvas pretty well along. Frame up, sheathing under way. Bill fdd the fire a couple more boards, and I went over to watch.

I nodded at the boards. "Why burn those ?"

"White speck," he said.

"What's wrong with that ?"

"Rotten." Bill said. "ft's rotten lumber."

"Mind if I take a look at the pile it came from?"

'We went over to. the pile of 1x8's and began to flip through the pieces. It was No. 3. There were the big knots and the knot holes and the split and the shake you'd normally expe.ct.

I picked out a piece with a good sprinkling of larger knots in it and considerable shake. "What do you think of this piece?"

"That's a good board. I've been using plenty just like it for years."

"All right. I'll take this one and you take a piece of that white speck. You do just what I do."

We bent those two boards, and twisted them, and banged them on the ground. We tried to see how much rough

treatmgnt each of them would take, and whether one of them would break before the other did. When we got through Bill looked at his piece of white speck and gave me a kind of wry grin.

"Well," he said, "it's stronger than I thought. But I still say it's rotten. It's not too bad right'now, but you put that in a house and it'll go on rotting, and pretty soon your house falls down."

"What makes you think it goes on rotting?"

Bill scraped at his jaw. "\Mell, doesn't it?"

"Not unless you lay it in the mud," I said. "If you do that to any board-let it get wet and stay wet, I mean it's going to de,cay."

"Who the hell is talking about laying boards in the mud," Bill said. "I'm talking about just the regular kind of house building.you see every day."..

"All right, tell me this. After the house is built, what's the normal moisture content of lumber used for framing, sheathing, sub-floors and so on?"

"I don't exactly know.",

r'f1'5 leql-most of the time as low as 1O to 12 per cent,"

Bill looked bored. "What difference does that make?"

"Plenty. All decay action stops when the moisture content of lumber drops to 19 per cent or less. That's not guesswork. Those are facts worked out by the U. S. Forest Products Laboratory. It means if you keep white speck lumber normally dry it won't decay any more than any other piece of lumber."

"You make it sound doggoned near as if a man ought to pay a premium,for it. Next thing you'll be wanting to build a whole house out of it.:'

"No, there are places for white speck lumber just the same as there are places for other kinds of low grade lumber."

Bill grinned. "Don't get me wrong. I'm not beefing about low grade. I've used plenty of it, and I know what can be done with it."

"Fair enough. Let's take a look inside and see where (Continue{ on Page 18)

We walked up the planks Bill had set against the conll crete porch foundation. Inside there was the good smell of lumber and sawdust shavings.

I brought my heel down hard on thti floor. "Take this sub-flooring to start with. You're shooting at good, longlagting construction, but you're shooting at economical , construction,too. So you use No. 3. You've built enough '.houses to know you don't need a top strength rating for the lumber that goes into your sub-floor. Number 3 will do the job, and that means white speck lurriber will do the job-remember those pieces we worked on outside."

l'Hold on," Bill said. I'll take it for sub-flooring, but you'v*e skipped something. What about your floor joists ?"

"fn most cases the answer is no," I said. "For floor joigt-s, depending on the length of the spai, you want No. 2 or better."

Bill reached into a hip pocket for his tobacco pouch. "Boy, f'm sure glad to catch you on something," he said.

"But get the reason for it straight," f warned him. "You don't reject white speck lumber for floor joists just becailse it's white, speck. The way it's graded today, most white speck lumber falls into the No. 3 grade. Number l" 3 has a lot of utility value, but it isn't a stress grade-and

you want a stress grade for your joists."

"Seems to me," Bill said, "that I sometimes see a little white speck in No. 2."

the grade that counts, not the particular characteristic, whether it's knots or shake or wane or white speck. Number 2 is graded to meet a specific stress-for jobs whgre greater strength is demanded, just like No. 1 or sel'ect structural."

"Okay," Bill said. "I guess I've got it straight ,about the floor joists. What about the ceiling joists?"

"Don't use No. 3 with white speck for ceiling joists if you wouldn't use No. 3 with big knots or splits or anything else."

"What about rafters ?"

"Same thing applies to rafters that applies to joists. If you normally uge a stress grade-No. 2 or better-keep on using it."

Boy," Bill said, "now I'm whittling you down to size. Are we all through with places where white speck lumber can be used?"

"\Me haven't more than started. Your sheathing is another first rate place for it. Sheathing doesn't require a lot of strength. Ever stop to think that in the warmer climates some builders don't use shedthing aV all? That means the job can be done with economical lumber-like white speck or any other kind of No. 3,

"And something else. One of the prime reasons for using sheathing is to insulate liour house. White speck lumber will give you every bit as much insulation as tlrc finest clear lumber-if you were silly enough to use clear boards for sheathing."

,

"You do. The grading rules allow a small streak of .. white speck in No. 2. Yoir've got to remember this-it's

In order to simplify the identification oI Douglas fir plywood grades; manufacturers have adopted a new A-B-C system of grade-marking.

Plywood is manufactured in two distinct types-Ex' terior and Interior. Within each of these two types are several' appearance grades. These grades----of either Exterior or Interior type-are determined by the appearance quality of the outer plys (Iace and back veneers).

Now, there are just four such qualities of veneerA, B, C and D, in order of appearance quality.

Highest in appearancequality"A" veneeris that formerly known as "Sound." "B" veneer is a new quality, also known as *Solid," which presents a 6rm, solid surface, free from open defects. "C" and "D" veneerg rnay contain certain restricted defects which do not ' afiect panel seniceability, and are used where appearance is no! important.

Renaming of "Wholetale Index"

To "Primary Market Price lndex" Urged by Wholesalers

A proposal to redefine the present Wholesale Index'issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics so that it reflects price trends more accurately has been made in a letter sent to Secretary of Labor Tobin by Joseph Kolodny, President of the National Association of Wholesalers.

"The term, 'Wholesale Index', or 'Wholesale Pricesr as employed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in indicating price changes, is wholly unrealistic and misleading," Mr. Kolodny stated. "Patently, the term 'Wholesale fndex' or fWholesale Prices' is intended to reflect prices established by wholesaldrs. However, the wholesaler has no'voice, is never consulted and does not determine the price of consumer goods. It is the primary processor, fabricator, or manufacturer who establishes, stipulates and designates the prices at which the merchandise is intended to be sold. The wholesaler is governed entirely by base prices established by the manufacturer. Unfortunately, the term' 'Wholesale fndex,' as now employed, trends to create the false impression that wholesalers originate or instigate price increases, which is not the case."

.Competitive mar\et conditions often force a'substantial reduction in. the price stipulated by the manufacurer. The savings made possible by this factor are passed on to the consumer by the wholesaler. The wholesaler's sole func-

tion is to distribute, goods efficiently and economically.

"It is thus obvious," Mr. Kolodny wrote," that a great injustice is done by the continuation of the term, 'Wholesale fndex' in acquainting the public with price shifts."

The suggestion is made in the letter that the name of the Index be changed to "Primary l{arket Price fndex'r as this term is more realistic and is in keeping with establidhed business pr""ii." and usage.

A Talk With Bill

(Continued from Page 18)

"All right," Bill said, stuffing his pipe. "I'11 take it for sheathing."

"ft'll do the job as roof boards, too. Don't forget that No. 3 has to have reasonable strength-enough for specific uses-or it couldn't even make the No. 3 grade."

"I guess that's right," Bill said. "Anything else?"

"White speck dimension lumber is perfectly adequate for studs in single-story construction. Remember, the job of the studs is to provide the frame for the house. The important consideration there is stiffness and straightness. Tod;ry's construction methods make it possible to use No. 3--rvhite speck or any other kind-and be sure you have all the strength vou need if judgement is used in nailing."

Bill let go of some smoke and rvatched it drift away.

"There are plenty of places," I said, "where strength isn't important at all. What about your plates ? Ary grade of lumber u'ould do for them. And the less it costs you the smarter it is to use it. Then there's your bridging and your fire stops and your cripples. They all add up to quite a ferv feet of lumber. All of it can be No. 3-rvith or without rvhite speck."

Bill rvaited a u'hile. "Son," he said, "I'm not committing myself, understand, but it could be I've been making a mistake."

"Nfaybe it's because you don't happen to have seen as much white speck lumber until just lately," I said. "They've been using it in the producing region for a long time. Not using it any place at all, mind you, but rvhere it will do the job."

"Hou'cor"ne I'm seeing it norv when I didn't see it before ?"

"They're cutting more of the timber that has lvhite speck in it-doing a better woods job-stretching the timber supply-doing a better job of preparing for the next crop of trees. It's real, hard-headed conservation."

Bill thought about that a little. "I'm for conservation," l-re said, "but my business is building houses. The man I buy lumber from is for conservation, but he's in business to sell lumber. \\re can't either of us quit what we're doing to go whole-hog for conservation."

"Right," I said, "on both counts. "That's why so much time and money is being spent to make sure that you can keep on doing business the same way you've been doing it-but at the same time getting the futl use and the best use out of all the lumber that's available. Righi now a lot of research is going forward on wlrite speck lumber to give us more inforation than we already have on the extent to which rv.hite speck lumber should be used."

We walked outside again. The fire had died down, and a little coil of smoke came up from the hot embers.

"Looks like I've been throrving arvav lumber and money both," Bill said.

"Looks like it," I said. "Kind of tough these days when money melts so fast."

Bill took another pull on his pipe. "That's so. When I build a house I'rn trving to do the best job I can, but I,ve got to n'atch the nickels and dimes or I can't come out.',

"So does just about everybodv. If people who want

houses are going to get them, we've got to trim costs wherever we can,"

The fire was through smoking. Bill began gently to kick at the ashes. "A little here and a little there makes a difierence," he said. "I'll think on it, son, I'll think on it."

- The two associations, the resolution stated; must be able to deal with leadership which "can'demonstrate belief in the sanctity of a contract." The 47-day-old, longshoremen's strike has seriously crippled shipments and curtailed production of many northwest mills which depend on waterborne cargo carriers.

Earlier i.n the session, Gunther Krause, legal representative of the Waterfront Employers Association of Oregon, told the delegates "the va-st majority of longshoremen in this Pacific Coast maritime strike are looking hopefully to us to,free them from the Communist party line leadership."

The loggers elected Robert Dwyer of the Dwyer Lumber Company, Portland, as their president. Carl Coleman of the Kinzaa Pine Company, Kinzua, Ore., was named vice president and Lew Mills, Mist Logging Company, Portland, treasurer. A. Whisnant, Pprtland, was elected secretary for the 25th consecutive year.

Jacques \Tillis

Jacques Willis, an outstanding leader in the plywood industry and the prefabricated housing field, passed away recently. At the time of his passing he was president of the HomeOla Corporation, and was active in a number of other construction activities throughout the country. He came into the plyrdood field from the lumber industry, which he entered at the age of 14 as a sawmill worker at St. Charles, La., in 1901. Later he was a partner in the Gram-Willis Frame'& Manufacturing Co. at Kenton Station, Portland, Ore. Iri 1934 he went into partnership with Raleigh Chinn to form 'a sales organization in Chicago known as the C-W Plywood Co. The J-W Plywood Co., Ihc.. which Mr. Willis headed at the time of his death, was an'outgrowth of C-W Plywood.

At Tacoma, Wash., in September, 1945, the first of the HomeOla prefabricated homes was constructed, the corporation being formed a short time later, with Mr. Willis as president. Since the end of the war, more than 3,000 of these units have been erected.

He is survived by his widow, Gladys, a daughter, Jacqueline, and a son, Robert J. \A/illis, who now heads the HomeOla Corporation and the J-W Plywood Co.

Sunrey Shows Wood Prelerred

As Window Mcrtericl

That wood windows have distinct advantages which create an enduring preference among home builders is indicated by a recent nation-wide survey which showed that wood still leads in preference as a window material.

The stirvey, conducted by Ponderosa Pine \Moodwork, showed that of those prospective home builders who ex'pressed a specific preference, 472% want wood windows. No other type of window received so large a vote. The principal reasons for preferring wood were given as architectural design, moderate original cost, and superior weathertightness.

San Francisco, Calif., October 25, 1948-Newest recruit on the California Redwood Association trade promotion team is "Redwood News," an informative house organ that folds conveniently to 8lx4 inches, handy for mailing or carrying in pocket. Designed to increase the "understand'ing. and appreciation of the unique usefulness and rare , qualities" of redwood lumber, "Redwood News" is to be published quarterly for distribution to architects, building 'materials dealers and other trade factors.

Its glossy pages contain news, notes, stories and statistics. The "how" of both production and use of redwood. Interesting histories, pertinent facts. Striking pictures of redwood at work in fine homes, in fi.eld and in factory, point up the reading matter.

The inaugural number, Fall 1948, just released, foretells of interesting things to come. One story points out that while redwood constitutes but two per cent of American softwood production, it- plays an industrious role the world over in the sphere of special uses.

Designed by Robert Washbish of San Francisco, the quarterly is being printed by Taylor & Taylor.

"Redwood News" may be obtained without charge from the California Redwood Association, 405 Montgomery St., San Francisco 4, California.

How to Fool cn Editor

(By Ring Lardner)

A good mani' young writers make the mistake of enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope, big enough for the manuscript to come back in. This is too much of a temptation to the editor. Personally I have found it a good scheme to not even sign my name to the story, and when I have got it sealed up in its envelope and stamped and addressed, I take it to some town where I don't live, and mail it from th6re. The editor has no idea who wrote tlie story, so how can he send it back? He is in a quandary.

Apologies to Whittier

Blessings on thee, little man, Barefoot boy with cheeks of tan, Trudging down a dusty lane, With no thought of future pain. You're our one and only bet, To absorb the national debt, Little man with cares so few, 'We've got lots of faith in you. Guard each merry whistled tune, You are apt to need it soon. Have your fun now while you can, You may be a barefoot man.

Mctter oI Hcbit

'l

Colonel: (After reviewing the regiment.) "What's the idea of putting all the big men in line in front of all the little men?"

Lieutenant: "It's the sergeant's fault. He used to run a fruit store."

Tolstoi on Human Conceit

"The Frenchman is conceited from supposing himself mentally and physically to be inordinately fascinating both to men and women. An Englishman is conceited on the ground of being a citizen of the best-constituted state in the world, and also beciuse he as an Englishman always knows what is the correct thing to do, and knows that everything that he, as an Englishman, does do is indisputably the best thing. An Italian is conceited from being excitable and'easily forgetting himself and other people. A Russian is conceited preciSely because he knows nothing and cares to know nothing, since he does not believe it is possible to know anything, fully. A conceited German is the worst of them all, and the most hardened of all, and the most reirulsive, of all; for he imagines that he possesses the truth in a science of his own invention, which is to him absolute truth. (Count Tolstoi, 1828-1910.)

The Better Wcry

"I've got a pretty distasteful job before me," remarked the genealogist. "Mrs. Newrich employed me to look up her family tree, and I find one of her grandfathers was elec. trocuted in the penitentiary. What shall I tell her?"

"That's etsp" said his quick-witted friend. "Just tell her that the old boy'occupied the chair of applied electricitlr at one of our public institutions.' She'll never know the difference."

Lincoh's Gettysbwg Address

(As it would have been handled by a conference of present-day advertising executives, according to TypoGraphic.)

Fourscore and seven years ago (say "eighty-seve4") our fathers brought forth ("founded" would be a better word) on this continent a new nation (let's get the name in there big) conceived in liberty (sounds awkward: say "with the idea of freedom") and dedicated to the proposition that all men (we ought.to have "\ romen" in there too. There's a lot of women in this country; it's a big field) are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war (make this the first paragraph-we take too long to get into. the story) testing *hether that nation or any nation so conceived (see above) and so dedicated can long endure. (Endure what? Make it "last".) We are met (say "have met") on a great battlefield of that war. (Put in the name.) We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place (don't beat about the bush---+ay "cemetery") for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live.

(We're sorry, Mr,. Lincoln, but this simply won't do. Take it and think it over, and see if you can't give us good, hard-hitting, straight-from-the-shoulder copy.)

The Fcirest Lcrnd

Tell me, gentle traveler, thou Wko hast wandered far and wide, Seen the sweetest roses blow, And the brigirtest rivers glide; Sa;7, of all thine eyes have seen, .Which, the fairest land has been? "Lady, shall I tell thee where, Nature seems most blest and fair Far above all climes beside?

'Tis where those we love abide."

Tension-tite Aluminum Screent

National distribution is now under way on the Tension' .-' tite aluminum window screens being maufactqred by , Rudiger-Lang Co., of Berkeley, California SincetheywereintroducedontheWestCoastlast March over 100,000 have been sold as original or replace-' ment screens for double-hung wood windows. ,,

Tension-tite full length screens are quickly installed from the inside with only five screws; no other hardware I is required. The adjustment channel dt the bottom of each l screen slips off to serve as a template for acctlrately plac- ' il ing the screws. Not only does this speed installation, but ,l it insures even tension and an insect-proof fit, the manufacturer states.

The screen can be removed from the window in about five seconds; yet the tension can be adjusted with a screwdriver so that children cannot open the screen.

The top and bottom bars are made of special weatherresisting aluminum alloy. The wire cloth is also aluminum, alloy, sel€cted for resistance to corrosion.

Because these screens require no painting, cannot stain exterior walls, can .be installed quickly and accurately, and' can be swiftly and 'safely removed from the inside for window cleaning, they are achieving immediate consumer acceptance, according to the manufacturer.

This new screen is ideally suited to localities where storm sash is used. It doesn't interfere with storm sash in any way, and can be readily removed, rolled up, and. stored till spring. ' '

Tension-tite screens are individually..plled and wrapped, complete with installation instructions and screws, 4nd packed in cartons to simplify inventoi'y-qontrol.

Interesting Obituary For A "Hew et o( \Vood"

The California Lumber Merchant 108 W. 6th St. 'l Los Angeles, Calif.

Dear Sir:- ' ir

Unusual as this may seem to the average lumber or millman, the writer wishes to eulogize not a top ranking; executive, nor a salesman of superlative achievements, but." rather one of the much too fast "Vanishing Craft" a cabi- l net maker and stair builder, a man who was far beyond ; the bounds of what is known today as a "cabinef makeq," he was an artisan.

F. W. Elliott

As a boy he was "hired outl by his parents in his native' country (Poland) as apprentice cabinet maker, withoutpay at the beginning, and very little compensation at the. end of four to five years of servitude. A short time later he migrated to this country and .applied his trade as a journeyman,cabinet maker.

We have had the pleasure of his friendship for over 20 years, the past eight years irl our own employ. During these years of employment with us he daily demonstrated the ideal component "Labor" of the much talked about, "Labor-Management" set up. His creed was to give a full efficient days work, while all he expected from us was adequate material and equipment with which to perform his duty, plus a living wage for himself to which he was : justly entitled. He was concerned in rnaking a profit for his employer.

He created with his own hands many of the finer things known to the craft, things that will be silent monumentsr to him and his craft,'they will be alive long after we all will have perished frbm this earth.

The man to whomal humbly do this honor passed from, '' this earth Oct.7,1948 at the ripe age of 70 yeats, he was 'i known to few as Albert C. Lazicki but remembered by ;, many as'.Al Clark."

I submit this in the deepest reverence to his memory and the highest respect and. admiration to his wife and family left behind. Yours very truly,

John M. Anslinger, Sr.
