T IS said that unless one moves ahead. IS he is in fact moving backwards. This true of people, of profit oriented organizations, and it is most aptly applied to associations.

The Lumber Association of Southern California has prop;ressed over the years, but not nearly to the degree in which it will be moving in the next few months.

Many plans have been formulated and adopted by the board of directors for innovation. Some are for immediate imple. mentation, others on a long range basis.

When the Wood Information Bureau ceased to exist, the Lumber fusociation of Southern California assumed the responsibility of being a center for dissemination of literature to architects, engineers, specifiers, designers and consumers. Many hundreds of pieces of literature have been mailed outliterature furnished bv va- rious specie associations. Recently a full page ad was carried in a leadins architectural publication regarding the" availability of literature and technical assistance through LASC. The response was immediate and very gratifying. LASC has taken a new step to establish its identity as a source of information, with obvious success. Success possible only through the continued cooperation of specie associations and the desire of the rnembers of the Lumber Association of Southern California to support such activity. The results will be the continued and increased acceptance of wood as an excellent structural material. or a warm, hospitable material for paneling to enhance the beauty of the home or office, or for the myriad other uses where it is superior to other products in all re. spects.

Now available to all members is a standard contract form, for use in contractor sales or as necessary. This document was developed by one of the committees and has been cleared by legal counsel as to not being in violation of anv federal or state laws regarding industry practices. It should be a great help to all retailers in their business transactions where a contractual arrangement need be made.

The education program is progressing nicely and should be presented to the first students by late summer or early fall. The plan is to have it available for individual members to use, employing a tape recorder and slide coordinated presentation.

Arbout July lst, LASC moves into a portion of a building now occupied by Building Material Dealers Credit Association. In addition to being a newer and more modern building, BMDCA has a printing and mailing shop to handle association publications, a computer which will be utilized for association mailine lists and other conveniences which will "assist LASC in servicing its members.
