NAWLA to Palm Springs

The May 2l-25 annual meeting of North American Wholesale Lumber Association will place emphasis on management sciences. The Palm Springs, Ca., meeting is expected to draw 750-800 from all parts of North America.

Systems, ideas and innovations that lead to better company management is viewed as a priority area by North American. As company size continues to grow in our industry, the managing of assets, the adaptations of distribution and the changes in the marketplace are becoming increasingly important.

The Wednesday sessions' three seminars will be the centerpiece. Three simultaneous seminars with two of them run twice during the moming. One will be on asset management, while the other will deal with adaptations in transportation, distribution centers and concentration points. Delegates will be able to attend both sessions, one right after the other. Running concurrently with these two seminars will be a third on futures, which will run the entire moming.

Noted speakers include Lawrence B. Simons, Under-Secretary of HUD and Federal Housing Commissioner; Louis Stem, chairman, Marketing Department of Northwestern University; and Louis Marchese, an attorney who is a national authority on product liability.

The NAWLA meeting is specifically designed to provide opportunities for person-to-person, supplier/ distributor contacts that are so important in forest products distribution.
