Chicago, and president of the NRLBMDA led off the Tuesday morning program urging real support, not lip service, to the National and its many valuable programs.
Dick Douglas, editor of Building Materi,als Mercha.ndr.ser followed Sheddon with several case histories of modern merchandising and new promotional wrinkles from all parts of the country.
Rick Pratt was up next with the results of that Monday morning suppliers meeting. The general consensus was that, while far {rom one big happy family, the industry has and will continue to make progress only through closer cooperation.
Although the suppliers investigated sev. eral different ways to help their customers, it was generally felt that they could best help in the field of advertising and promotion, Pratt noted.
Whotesater Help
Supplementing the recommendations of the supplier group, and as an illustration of the type o{ help already available to retailers in the merchandising field, N-AWLA president Al Bell showed that association's new slide presentation. "How Promotion Aids Will Build Your Profits." Illustrating how the retailer can put a ten million dollar promotion campaign origi- nating at the various lumber associations to work for him personally, the wholesalers group presentation was well received.
Following the closing luncheon on Tues. day, April 25, Art Masters received the president's gavel from Homer Hayward and in his acceptance speech made it quite clear that he would strive to maintain, and increase wherever possible, the momentum oI the various LMA programs.
The Kern County dealer will make a good president and we predict continued progress for LMA when the results are tabulated at the 28th Annual which will be held at the Sahara-Tahoe, April 2830. 1968.
