Will Ask National Association Members to Study L A. Grade-Marked Lumber Plan
George W. LaPointe, Jr., Menomonie, 'Wis., president of the National Lumber Dealers Association, advises Kenneth Smith, secretary-manager of the Lumber and Allied Products Institute, Los Angeles, that the success of the campaign to promote the use of grade-marked lumber being carried on by the Institute is the most important development in the industry noted on a recent nationwide tour.
Mr. LaPointe also states:
1'I note on my return to 'Wisconsin that nearly every purchasing department of the federal government is demanding grade-marked lumber and refusing to accept bids on anything else. Because of this and because the success of your pioneering efforts in grade-marked merchandising, I am urging all members of the National Association to study your plan."
Oh:o Lumbermen Will Vlsit Redwood Empire
California's Redwood industry will be the host during the first week of February to more than 125 members of the Ohio Association of Retail Lumber Dealers and the Union Association of Lumber and Sash and Door Salesmen, who will leave Columbus, Ohio, January 22, on a three lveeks' tour to the Northwest, Redwood and Southern Pine territories.
Members of the tour will arrive in Grants Pass, Oregon, by special train, to be met by representatives of the California Redwood Association and civic leaders of Humboldt county for a 175 mile drive down the beautiful Redwood Highway to Eureka. There, inspection trips are planned to the principal Redwood manufacturing and logging operations and to the beautiful state oarks in the Redwood Empire. Thence, the party will proceed to San Francisco to inspect the Bay Bridge and the Golden Gate bridge before leaving for Los Angeles and the southern states.
This will be the ninth excursion sponsored by the Ohio lumber interests in 16 years, but the first since l9D when the group cruised to the West Indies and Mexico City.
The tour will begin immediately after the final session gf the annual conventions of the two associations in Columbus, Ohio. Findley M. Torrence of Xenia, Ohio, tour director, reports greater interest than ever before, to such an extent that reservations have been necessarily restricted.
