The widely known firm of Ziel & Co., Inc., importers an<i exporters, of 149 California Street, San Francisco. sales agents for the United States for the Santa Clara Lumber Co., Manila, P. I., entered its second century of operations. October 31, 1949.

It was on October 31, 1849, that Gustavus Ziel, scion of a family of international merchants. trained in the export- import business in Hamburg, and Caesar Bertheau, established this business on California Street, San Francisco. The city at that date had a population of 15,000. The business dealt in hardware, dry goods, and general merchandise.

The first Gustavus Ziel was appointed Consul for the Grand Dutchy of Hesse in the territory west of the Rock_ ies, and Consul for the City of Hamburg. Both appointments were confirmed by President Lincoln, and Secretary of State William Seward. The original document is now

Masonite's new plant at Ukiah, Calif. will probably bc ready to start producing wood fiber hardboard by midsummer, reports E. T. F. Wohlenberg, general manager of the Ukiah development. The 35 mile long logging road which links the plant with the timber lands was completed recently, and it is estimated that.the factory buildings are now 75 per cent complete.

displayed at the Society of California pioneers in San Francisco.

Gustavus Ziel was succeeded by his son, Gustavus A. Ziel as head of the firm. He was educated in San Francisco and Oa\land schogls, and later received a business training in Hamburg and Paris before entering the business. The firm survived the earthquake and fire in 1906, and Gustavus A. Ziel continued to be in charge of the business until his death in 1924.

Present Head Enters Firm

It was then that John Gustavus Ziel, born in San Francisco in 1896, son of Gustavus A. Ziel, entered the business. The main export items handled by one of San Francisco,s largest import-export concerns include food products, chemicals, petroleum products, and softwood lumber. Tht: imports consist of Philippine Mahogany, Japanese Oak and Birch, and various minor foreign woods.

New Scrles Offices And Displcy Room

J. E. Higgins Lumber Co., San Francisco, reeently completed new sales offices and a display room, including a privale office for Ralph Mannion, sales manager, and one for Art Grey, softwood manager, at their warehouse, 99 Bayshore Boulevard.

A farmer ran an ad in his local paper that read: "Farmer 38 wishes to meet and marry woman about 30 who owns a tractor. In replying, please enclose picture of tractor."

In these dear decader.:"; Jr,.r, tr,. entire population of the nation is being forced and coerced into guaranteeing the high prosperity of the farmer, the above might easily happen. Honest Junior-it COULD.

No Junior, he was "..:".; ,l"r,tion.a. r am speaking of Mr. American Consumer, and the huge volume of discussion that took place in Congress prior to the passing of our latest farm price support law. Almost nothing was said about the economic vise this new law tied him into; the financial handcu,ffs that were locked on his wrists.

In this price support business, Mr. Consumer, this vital, tragic figure, is the forgotten man. FIe pays the bills for this folly, pays them double, and when lawmakers rise to discuss the details of his enslavement to the tail of the farm chariot, there is none ": n:ot as to do him honor.

Scarce a voice was raised to suggest that farm price supports of stratospheric character are, in time of peace, unconstitutional, undemocratic, unjust, unrighteous, and just plain pocket-picking. It was discovered in the elections a year ago that he who loses the farm vote is lost, and he who opposes handing unearned wealth to the farmer, loses the farm vote. It's that simple. And since, unfortunately, all members of Congress are at all times candidates for re-election, it is understandable why no doughty champions rose to question the fairness of the farm support deal.

Reminds me of what Finley Peter Dunne's famous character, Mr. Dooley, once said to his friend Ffennessey: ,.If ye'd turn on the gas in the darkest heart, ye'd find it had good raison for the worst things it done, a good varchous (vrituous) raison, like needin' the money, or punishin' the wicked, or tachin' people a lesson to be more careful, or pertecktin' the liberties i"*-TOi*nU, or needin'the money.',

If Mr. Dooley were on the job today he would without doubt add to that redoubtable list of "raisons" the following: "Or needin' the votes." That last would explain most of the weird antics and economics of Washington these days.

The so-called "crop "orlari,, L* p."".a in 1938, which was the beginning of the present system of price supports,

covered five basic crops; corn, wheat, cotton, rice, and tobacco. Today price supports cover nearly everything raised on a farm, and hold up the price of practically everything the public eats, of the cotton and wool the public wears, and of the tobacco the public smokes and (yes, it's true) chews'

This is done mostly by buying up large portions of the crops and retiring them from the competitive markets, and by making loans to farmers, which loans are gifts because they do not have to be repaid. Besides these, there are other and lesser methods used to keep up the price the consumer must PaY' :F * *

In buying these crops, does the government seek ,.a price"? Far from it, Junior. (Why do you ask such silly questions ?) The government fixes the price itself ; fixes it higher than the prevailing market price. No pretense is made at any time or in any part of these operations that anything practical, sensible, or businesslike is being done. There is no semblance of any effort except the effort to put up and keep up the price*of *these commodities.

Most of what the government buys becomes a heavy burden on said government. ft cannot be sold for human consumption. It cannot be sold in competition with the rest of the same crop. The law forbids such things. On July first, 1949, the government held in storage more than one billion dollars worth of farm products that it bought just to bolster the price, and does not know what to do with. The opinion is frequently expressed in Congress that our farm support program is economic imbecility, but they don't dare take the political ?.U*ot attacking it.

California has a bumper crop of grapes this year. Cali_ fornia grapes are processed into practically all the nation's supply of raisins as well as domestic wine. So a bumper crop of raisins would seem to mean more and cheaper rai_ sins for the kids to eat, and the housewife to buy. But it would only seem so. For Uncle Sam, through his Wash_ ington planners, has taken care of that. So you can quit drooling, Junior, over the raisin prospect. It was an_ nounced that federal agencies would buy 120,000 tons of California raisins, to keep up the price. Most of this huge amount of good human food will be fed to hogs. Junior ! Stop using that kind of language !

What a joy it is to see a spark of light in the midst of murky darkness! I just read about an organization of small truck farmers in South Texas who publicly announce that its members "Do not ask or accept aid from state,

Inevitable changes in the economic organizations of society are exposing'it as just anotJrer myth preached in the interest of a small class seeking to retain pornFer and privilege." (Reads lilce a page from Lenin or Stalin, doesn't it? But it was a written opinion of a man named Leland Olds, who was rec€ntly appointed Federal Power Commissioner by President Truman. He admitted to.a Congress committee that he wrote_ it. Yet Mr. Truman used every trick and power he possessed to force the acceptance of this man. Congress refused to confirm him. But Washington rumor has it that he will soon turrr up in some federal payroll job where he doesn't have to be confirmed, as is the way in Washington today.)

One of the fiercest. blows dcalt our present program of economics by any authoritative person in a decade, hit the front pages when Dr. Edwin Nourse, Chairman of the President's own Council of Economic Advisers and an economist of world-wide fame, literally "took down his hair" in addressing a conventiorq and said harsher things about our welfare program than even the bitterest critics frbm the other side of the. political fence, have uttered. The text of his remarks were these words: "Mone'tary and fiscal tricks have .no power of magic, but are a slippery road to misery." What he meant, Junior, was that the government cannot take over all the affairs of this nation and create abiding prosperity bysleight-of-hand tricks, and give-away programs.

Exhibit of Rcre Veneers

More than a hundred rare veneers from the ,,Woods of the World" were exhibited at the Weldwood Building, 55 West 44th Street, New York, recently before an interested group of architects, decorators and editors. Many of these veneers were never before exhibited and are available todav for the'first time.

United States Plywood Corporation, in cooperation with the New York Chapter of the Producers, Council, assem-bled the exhibit to emphasize the importance of wall pan-' eling and fine interiors in modern architecture.

Lawrence Ottinger, president of the plywood company. pointed out that there is an increasing demand for madetc-order hardwood panets for special purposes where beauty of graining and texture are essential. "This exhibit,,, he said, "shows to architects and others interested ..the tremendous possibilities for unique designs and flexible uses that were hitherto thought impossible.'

Hono red At San Francisco Luncheon

The Director of Forestry for the Philippine lleprrblic, lilorencio Tamesis, t'as the grrest of honor at a luncheon n.reeting at the llohemian Club, San Francisco, October 21. The lur-rcheon \\.AS arrange<l lrr. representatives of Philippine harclrvood manufacturers, ancl attended lry them and by distributors, forestry rel)resentatives, ar.rcl architects.

J. E. (Ted) Higgins, of J. Ii. Higgins Lunrber Co., San Francisco, \\'as toastmaster, :rncl in his opening remarks outlined briefl1' from the distributors' poirrt of vierv the history of I'hilippine hardu'oocl production. He commented or-r the fact that distriltrrtors founcl after the tvar thai consumer demand had vanishecl, ancl gar.e his iclea of rvhat thc nranufacturers necd to clo to re-estalriish the sale of Irhilippine hardrvoods to the consumers in this corlntry.

N[r. Tan.resis rvas introclrrcecl by Ntr. I tiggins. He tolrl of the clestruction of the sarvmills irr the earrly dziys of Jrtp:rnese occupatiorr, ancl hou. procluction u'as startecl again rvhen the Americans arrir-ed bringing srlall mills u'ith then,. 561y, h€ szrid, they have more than 400 sau'mills, anrl production exceecls one billion board feet annuallr., n'hich is greater than before the u,ar. Prior to the u'ar 25 per cent of the cut rvas exportcd. This compares n'ith ,only 4.3 per cent at present.

The Philippines l'rave the largest supply of easily extractable merchurntable hardu'oocls of any country in the u'orlcl, NIr. Tamesis stated. Nferchantable tinrber is confined to about six different species, knou,n in the United .States as l'hilippine mahogany. Their forests lend them-

selves to the most modern mecl.ranical methods, using exactll' the same heavy logging equipment that is used in the United States, and as a result they can compete in price lvith other hardn oods.

Mr. Tan.resis explainecl that textures vary according to u'here the timber is grou,n.

Thc lau' provides that no logs can be exported u'ithoul. being gradecl according to Government rules. Grading is uniform under Goverument supervisi,rn. They are trainirrg hardn'ood inspectors as quickly as possible, and fly thcm all over the islands l.herever r.reeded.

In conclusion NIr. Tamesis said that their reforestation l)rogram includes plar-rting of trrre nrahogany and Honcluras mahogany. The annual gro'rvth rif l'hillippine hardn'oods is estimated at about four billion board feet, t'hich indicates a very high perpetual yield.

Questions n'ere asked by Nlr. Annstrong and NIr. Bendorf. Prolessor E,manuel Fritz told of the extensive use of I'hilippine mahogany in a nnmber of large S:ur Francisco office buildings.

Ranch Plank Flooring, a prefinished oak flooring with glued-in walnut pegs is E. L. Bruce Co.'s newest product.

A distinctive looking floor at 'moderate cost, Ranch Plank Flooring was developed to meet the requirements of a flooring suitable for the popular ranch style house. It has alternate widths and beveled edges which make it similar in appearance to more expensive random width floors; however, it costs no more than an ordinary strip floor and is just as easy to install.

Architects and interior decorators find it very versatile and are specifying it for all types of architecture, particularly modern and colonial. It is finished in, a medium dark, mellow shade called "Decorator" which is in smart contrast with the lighter colors of modern furniture and a perfect blend for the darker colors of traditional.

The finish applied under controlled conditions at the factory, is the Famous Bruce Scratch Test Finish which does not chip, scratch or peel. This floor is easy to maintain and with ordinary care will never need refinishing unless it is subjected to an unusual amount of wear and abuse.

The oak strips are 2fu" and 3r/a" wide and are tire standard 25/32" thickness. Manufactured in oak in one grade only, this flooring is comparable to No. 1 Common and Better Strip Flooring. It is packed in corrugated end cartons for easy handling. Laying instructions are printed on the cartons.

Fred Ziese, Gamerston & Green Lumber Co., San Francisco, retiring president of the San Francisco Lumbermen's Club, was the recipient of a very fine watch as a small tribute to the excellent work done by Fred in his capacity as president.

17, at the yard of Cowser & Company, the big plant operated by Jake Reichenstein. That morning was given over to a close up inspection of various grades of redwood lumber. For this purpose a representative car of redwood, shipped in by the Union Lumber Company was unloaded, pieces stacked on end and displayed by grade pattern and size and to an audience composed of the wholesale and commission salesmen in the Dallas area, the Association's field representative, John F-reeman, lectured on redwood grading, manufacturing process and utilization.

The session was continued in the afternoon at the Adolphus Hotel, where some phases of the Association's advertising and public relations program was outlined.

Tuesday morning, October 18, retail lumber dealers, architects and other specifiers of building materials, gathered in the Ball Room of the ddolphus Hotel for a program devoted to outlines and case histories of redwood utllization, pointing to the greatest possible degree of efficiency to be obtained in redwood specification and use.

Sherman Bishop opened the session with a brief history of the development of the redwood industry from the time of its first commercial pr0duction in 1832 through the progressive steps of manufacturing operations until the present time when such practices as reforestation, selective cutting, elimination of waste and especially the matter of proper utilization are part of the industry's everyday policy

Philip Farnsworth particularly suggested close cooperation between retail lumber dealers and architects in providing good materials and insuring proper uses, and offered the help of the Association in furnishing samples, technical literature and other information to anyone interested.

John Freeman presented high lights on the subject of grades, properties and uses, and stressed the great utility of redwood for many specihc jobs. As part of the morning program, the Association's new color-sound movie, "'Sempervirens," a highly picturesque presentation of redwood from forest to various construction uses, was shown; and a new sound slide film entitled "Box Score," dealing with the properties of redwood as analyzed and reported by the Forest Products Laboratory. A luncheon on the Roof Garden of the Adolphus Hotel concluded the Dallas seminar.

fn Houston, on October 2O and.2I, the seminar was reported for the representatives in this area. The Thursday morning sesbion was held at the yard of Alex. Shroeder Lumber Company, where again the various grades and properties'and uses of redwood were pointed out by IVfr. Freeman. That afternoon, a session on advertising and promotion was conducted in the French Room of the Rice Hotel. The Friday morning session was held in the South American Room of the Rice Hotel, and here again a large crowd of dealers and architects listened to brief addresses by the Association's three officials, and viewed the movie "Sempervirens" and the sound slide film "Box Score." The seminar concluded w'ith a luncheon at which Jack Dionne was called on to tell a few of his favorite stories.

The redwood ambassadors, many of whom are making their first visit to Texas, were much impressed with the evidences of growing industry in Dallas and Houston, and promised to visit again and give it a great deal more consideration in the future.

Of interest to concerns selling to the lumber and woodworking industries including furniture manufacturers is the 136th edition of the Reference Book of the Lumbermen's National Red Book, Service. The Fall 1949 edition. just off the press, lists an unusually large number of credit and business status changes-a general indication of the times.

Besides the numerous credit rating changes, the nerr' issue lists many new sawmills and manufacturing concerns and other new ventures in the industry.

Now in its 73rd year, the Red Book. Service is used by lumber shippers and firms who market through retail lumber dealers, or who sell to the lumber, woodworking and furniture manufacturing industries. The specialized information is important to these firms as a source of credit information and for collection work. It is also widely used as a buying and selling guide.

The "Red Book,". as it is familiarly referred to, is published by Lumbermen's Credit Association, fnc., 608 South Dearborn Street, Chicago 5, Illinois. The New York Office is located at 99 Wall Street.

Housing FHA Amendments Approved

\\,'ashington, Oct. 25-A four-month extension of FHA Title I property improvement loan insurance operations and a similar extension of FHA authority to insure rental housing mortgages under Section 608 of the National Housing Act are provided for in legislation approved by the President yesterday Commissioner Franklin D. Richards cf the Federal Housing Administration said today' The authorizations covering these two features of the FHA program \\rere previously scheduled to expire on October 31. In addition to authorizing their continuance through February 1950, the new act increases by $25,000,000 the amount of the net insurance liability that may be outstanding at any one time as a result of Title I operations. Further, subect to Presidential approval the aggregate mortgage principal that may be outsianding at any one timb urider Title II, on both 1-to 4-family homes and rental housing, is increased by $750,000,000, and that under Title VI by $500,000,000.

Provision is also made for payment of nonadministrative expenses of the agency from its insurance funds, subject to the limitation that such expenditures made in any fiscal year shall not exceed 35 per'cent of income from fees and premiums during the preceding year. The purpose of this provision is to permit the FHA to make adjustments in its operating staff and expenses required by fluctuations in the volume of insurance written from year to year.

The Federal Reserve Act is amended to permit national banks to make or purchase mortgages insured by the FHA under Title VIII of the National Housing Act' These mortgages cover rental housing for use by military personnel.

Field offices of the FHA throughout the country have been notified of the provisions of the new act affecting FHA operations, Mr. Richards said. Amendments to FHA administrative rules and regulations made necessary by these provisions will be in the hands of field offices and lending institutions within the next fer'v days, he added.

FATALITESASA RESULT OF IISTISTRAL ACCIDENTS IN THE LOGGII'{G Al€ SA\rVtvf,-L

\Vhere Deaths Occur

The above chart representing a rough flow plan for processing timber into commercial lumber was drawn to locate pictorially the general operational region where were distributed the 179 fatal accidents which were studiecl. The accidents were so selected that there were used only those accidents having a reasonably direct relationship to the operational region of the industry indicated. The 179 fatal accidents were chosen from records in the birrisior, of Safety file covering Division Engineers' investigations over a period principally from 1945 through 1948.

The chart was set up principally to demonstrate an ef-

Iective technique of presenting statistical material. It does not propose to be an accurate study of all accidents covering a specific period of time nor does it propose to suggest a rate. It is believed, however, that in general the chart suggests a fairly reliable relative distribution of fatal .accidents in the opeiations indicated.

It should be borne in mind also, that a study covering a specific period of time of all lost time accidents in thc lumber industry would result in a much different percentage distribution than is suggested by this cliqtribution of fatal accidents.

Lumber and the New Minimum Wage Rate

Late in October President Truman, signed the new minimum wage rate law that increased the minimum wage per hour from 4O to 75 cents

So far as the lumber industry is con,cerned, that change was important fop the time being, only in the South and Southwest.

No part or segment of the lumber industry in the Western part of the country is affected, since the wages paid in mills, logging camps, and lumber yards are higher than the 75 cent minimum.

Inquiry directed to one of the large sawmill operations in the Pacific 'Northwest brings the statement that the average rate of pay for their sawmill employees is about ?.10 per hour, and the average wage of their logging crews is $2.3O to $2.35 per hour. It was added that they pay the cooks in their logging camps from $550 to $600 per month, and the waitresses in the logging camps average over $350 per month.

In the South the new law will make very little change in the wage rate of the larger mills. Many of them p^y ZS cents todayf some are paying more than that, while most of the others pay very close to it. Competition has seen to that. And, while many Southern mills that do a strictly in-

-Kaicer Acquires New Gypsum Products Plant

fn a move to increase production to'rrfeet the growing demands of the West, Henry J. Kaiser announced'October 10 the acquisition of the Redwood City, California, gypsum products plant formerly operated by Pacific Portland Cement Company.

The newly acquired plant and that of the Kaiser affiliated Standard Gypsum Company of California, located at Long Beach, will henceforth be owned and operated by Kaiser Gypsum, a Division of Kaiser Industries, Inc.

The Redwood City plant will manufacture a completti line of gypsum products for distribution in Northern California, Westerh Nevada, Oregon and Washington.

trastate business do not come under the provisions of the wage and hour law and therefore have no legal provisions to comply with, their wage rate is fixed to a considerable, deS'ree by the competition of the interstate mills. The mills,most affected in the South are the myriad of small mills that must sell their lumber far chetper than their larger and better equipped competitors. It is conceivable , that the continued operation of many hundreds of such mills will be threatened bv the enforcement of the new wage rate, which becomes effective ninety days after the bill was signed.

fn opposing the passage of the new wage rate law, Southernlumber people stressed what might happen to the sawmill industry of the South and to their employees, should even a mild depression overtake the economy of this country. They pointed out that during the early.thirties literally thousands of Southern sawmills operated on a hand-to-mouth basis Tor no reason othe4 than to keep their men employed and furnish them a subsistence \ rage. All such operations were run at a loss, and the mills sacrificed their valuable timber in order to help their men. Should such times come again, they agreed, the mills could have no choice but to close down, and throw their employees on relief.

Mr. Kaiser explained that additional production was necessary because demand for the company's products has increased so greatly in the last few months that existing facilities were inadequate.

Production will continue without interruption so that no lag will occur in deliveries.

He also said that an extensive modernization program will be carried on during the coming six months; including new spirr track service and deep water unloading facilities for bulk ore carrying ships that will serve the plant.

Raw.gypsum to supply the plant will be shipped from the company's quagry on San Marcos fsland, off the coSst of Baja California. This deposit, one of only two on the North American continent situated on tidewater. is one of the world's largest high-grade gypsum sources.

There can be no such thing as a nation flourishing alone in commerce; she can only participate; and the destruction of it in any part must necessarily affect all. When, therefore, governments are at war, the attack is made upon the common stock of coinmerce, and the consequence is the same as if each had attacked his own.

The prosperity of any commercial nation is regulated by the prosperity of the rest. If they.are poor, she cannot be rich; and her condition, be it what it may, is an index,of the height of the commercial tide in other nations.

The boy in college had written his father for money, and the father failed to respond. So the son wrote as follows: "I wrote and asked you to kindly send me some cash. You failed to do so. What sort of kindness is that?" And the father replied: "That is unremitting kindness." {< * >1.

The Difference (When Ma is sick.)

When Ma is sick she pegs away, She's quiet, though, not much to say; She goes right on a-doin' things, And often laughs, and even sings. Just says she don't feel extra well, But then it's only just a spell.

(When Pa is sick.)

When Pa is sick he's scared to death, An' Ma an' us just holds our breath; He crawls in bed an'puffs an' grunts, An' does all kinds o' crazy stunts. He wants the doctor mighty quick, For when Pa's*ill,*he s awful sick.

Why the Goller Wcrs Lqte

The fourth man in the golfing gang was a little late on Sunday morning, and the other three chafid and fussed until he came puffing up. He _explained the situation this way: "I didn't know whether to go to church or play golf with you boys, so I decided to toss a coin to decide. I said heads I'd go to church, and tails I'd play golf. That's why I'm late. You know I had to fip that doggone nickle seventeen times before it came fp tails."

Precrcher Plcyed Scrle

The knot was tied; the pair were wed, And then the smiling bridegroom said Unto the preacher, "Shall I pay To yori the usual fee today? Or would you rather wait a year, And then give you a hundred, clear, If I should find the married state

As happy as I estimate?"

The preacher lost no time in thought, To his reply no study brought, There were no wrinkles in his brow: He said: ."I'll take those three bucks NOW." **>t<

He Took the Count

"Triplets," said the nurse to the waiting father.

"I can hardly believe my own census," said he.

Non Stop

The wife said to her husband after his friend had left: "I dislike your friend very much. He yawned in my face continually for the past hour."

"Are you sure he was yawning?" queried the husband. "Perhapil ,he was just trying to get a word in edgeways."

Bad Books

Wherever one goes one immediately comes upon this incorrigible mob of humanity. It exists everywhere in ' legions; crowding and spoiling everything, like fies in summer. Hence tlre numberless bad books, those rank weeds of literature which extract nourishment from the corn, and choke it. They monopolize the time, money, and attention which really belongs to good books and their noble aims; they are merely written with a view to making money or procuring places. They are not only useless but they do positive harm. Nine-tenths of our present literature aims solely at taking a few shillings out of the public's' pocket, and to accomplish this, author, publisher, and reyiewer have joined forces.-Schopenhauer

Should and Shouldn't

The lady was browsing in the book shop, when one of the sales force came to.her, book in hand, and said:

"Mrs. Jones, here is a book you really should read."

"I suppose so," said Mrs. Jones, "but it keeps me so busS reading those I shouldn't."

Maurice Euphrat Makes Public Debut as Profcssional Pianist

' Maurice Euphrat, -son of M. L. (Duke) Euphrat, of Wendling-Nathan Co., San Francisco, made his professional debut as a pianist, in his Marines Memorial Theater concert in San Francisco, October 26.

One of the San Francisco critics, writing about the concert said in part: "The young San Francisco pianist's approath to the keyboard was pleasingly direct and frank. His tone was prevailingly bright (which always adds interest to a performance) and at the same time it was sensitive and nicely flexible in expressive phrasing."

The article praised the young musician's distinctive spirit, restraint, and poise.

The display is 26 inches wide and fr inches high and folds flat ftr shipping and storing. Prominently displayed are five 5l inch by 8 inch samples of Simpson Insulating Tileboard, Insulating Building Board, Insulaiing Decorative Plank, Insulating Lath and Asphalt-Impregnated Insulating Sheathing. A triple rack arrangement holds several sizes of folders and booklets featuring the various Simpson Insulating Interior Finish Products. Prominently featured on the face of the display are two full color' illustrations demonstrating how Simpson Insulating Interior Finish Products may be used to remodel existing rooms.

"Quiclcie" \Tatehouse

Tacoma, Wash.-In Tacoma, Washington, a seemingi miracle in warehouse construction occurred recently. Walld' and roof framing for a 50 by 100 foot building 2O feet high were erected in six hours on a previously completed ccincrete floor and foundation work. Passers-by who had seen no building at 8:00 a.m. saw an almost finished struc' ture late that afternoon. :.

The trick was done by building the four side wall ancl two gable wall sections on the ground and then lifting them' in place with a crane. The entire job of. fabricating these.; wall sections and lifting them in position was finished in' a five-day working week. :

Four Weyerhaeuser-built Monochord roof trusses of 50' foot length were used in the building, which is to be pu'I in service by the Cavanaugh Lumber Company of Tacoma,; Contractor Roy T. Earley hahdled the concrete foundation,: work and details of fabrication and crane lifting. -

The displays are delivered and installed in person by a force of Simpson field men serving dealers in the eleven Western States. These field men report an enthusiastis dealer acceptance, and it is thought that this is the only,.-l t:^^r^-- ^:^^^ ^J :+^ l-:-l :- +1.^ :-J...+-.' r ln display piece of its kind in the industry.

Big Development Propored For Mineral King Ski Area

Sar.r Francisco, Sept. 29-Possibilities of developing Mineral King into one of the finest ski areas in the Unitetl States are so good that the U. S. Forest Service is inviting private enterprise to build a resort hote1, ski lif ts and other fzrcilities at a total cost probably exceeding $300,000.

The village and N{ineral King Valley nestle in the HigLr Sierra in the Secluoia National Forest, east of Visalia, irr Tulare County. The settting is a basin formed by the Great \\restern Divide and mountain ridges running 'lvest from the Divide. The elevations range from 7,500 ft. at Xlineral King village to I2,4O5 ft. on Florence Peak, on the rim.

The Forest Service Announccs it u'ill accept applications until February 28, 1950, from individuals or firms rvho can shon'abilit1'to cleveloir ancl operate a resort and ski facilities at N{ineral l{ing. The successful applicant rvill receive a permit to use certain national-forest land for the projcct, in return for payment of an annual fee.

The developnlent plan includes a resort hotel accommodating 150 persons, a chair-lift one mile long, a "T-bar" lift 2,100 feet long, and other facilities including "over the snow" transportation betrveen State Highlvay 198 and thcr proposed resort.
