f'ortland, Oregon, January l8-Douglas fir sawmills of Oregon and Washington cut and shipped ntore lumber durirrg 1950 than during any previous year in the centurylong history of the industry in the West.
The 1800 sawmills west of the Cascades in both states cut 10.663 billion board feet in 1950, according to Harris I'1. Smit[, secretary of the West Coast I-umbermen's Association. This tops even the high production of the 1920's. Shipments last year of 10.8 billion board feet also set new records. Orders of 11.1 billion feet topped 1949by more than one billion feet and was the largest vear's business ever

The appointment of Eric Johnston for the vastly important office of Economic Stabilization Director will probably be highly approved of by business generally. Mr. Johnston l-ras been for years president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, and knows the business world very thoroughly. A very likeable, personable, and highly intelligent man, he is splendidly qualified for the big job.
In spite of the predicted lr* ," residential construction due to government restrictions, building goes on at a high rate of speed; and in spite of still more recent restrictions against commercial construction, reports from building material manufacturers of national scope, are highly optimistic. For instance the giant Johns-Manville Corporation announces that it expects very little reduction in the two hundred million dollars business it did in 1950, while some of the leading plywood manufacturers report a huge order file and the expectation of a very great volume year in 1951. In other lines of building material industry, reports are about the same.
In Douglas Fir the demand right now is terrific. Fir manufacturers seem somewhat bewildered as to where all this material is to be used. but the fact remains that the market is one of the strongest in all the history of the business, including the spring of 1950.
Cutbacks in the civilian use of steel, tin, tungsten, and nickle by government order, is expected to have little immediate effect on the building industry, although steel restrictions will probably take some building toll as the year progresses.

Urania. Louisiana. is the sawmill town of the Urania Lumber Company. The double band sawmill operated by the company is the only industry in the town, which belongs completely to the mill company.
The head of the Urania I-umber Company is Q. T. ("Quincy") Hardtner. He is the younger brother of the late Henry Hardtner, who is generally and properly known as the "father of forestry" in the South. When the elder brother died, Quincy, who had been his assistant and right-hand-man frorn the beginning, took over the operation of the company, ancl followed right along in the footsteps of Henry.
If there have been in the industrial world during the last fifty years such things as genuine prophets, Henry and Quincy
Hardtner are the men. You may hear or even read tales now and then about how someone or other foresaw the possibility of growing timber for commercial purposes and growing it successively, but you can safely cross your fingers about it' I-ong years before anyone else in the lumber industry evet clrean,ed that it could be done, Henry Hardtner and his younger brother were telling the world and trying to tell their lum' ber friends that trees can be grown commercially and successfully, and that mills do not have to cut out their timber and quit.
Forty years ago they rn'ere preaching that gospel. Henry, the elder, was the front man and did most of the talking. And

Bruce Barton, one of the outstanding characters and capable thinkers in America today, wrote recently: "If you "ri, "" I am, for putting self'defense first; if you ar€ thumbs down on any more Koreas, shouldn't you write and say so to your Congressmen? You might even pin a note to your income tax blank: 'Don't spend this money trying to 6.,y any more foreign good will. Spend it for protection' First of "il fot airplanes and radar in the IJSA !'

TheWallstreetJournalaskeditsrepresentativesabroad to canvass the situation and find out what Europeans think of us today, and summarized their findings' The report was headed: "Attitudes toward United States range from hate to grudging tolerance." And the boil-down of their findings loes-like this: "\ile don't like you, but don't go away.- That about sums up the current attitude of a West"rn b,.rop.an man in the street towards Americans, though naturally there are differences of emphasis from one country to another. Since events took the wrong turn in Korea' resentment against Americans and American foreign policy has mountea. ena since former President Herbert Hoover and Senator Taft started making what some people call isolationist noises, the fear that the U'S' might pull out of Europe, has increased. This combination of kicking Uncle Sim in the shins while clinging tightly to his collar is a psychological pattern that shows up time after time'"
The average American has no idea concerning the cost of maintaining and operating the United Nations' or the share we play and pay' so Bill Henry tells about it in his Washington column in the Los Angeles Times: "Here's a list of tile approximate U. N. expenditures by years: 1946' $19,300,000 ;- Ig+7, 27,740,000; 1948, $34,300,000; 1949, $43',+SO,OOO; 1950, 45,500,000; 1951, $47,650,000' The only optimistic item in this whole business from the standpoint of the U. S. taxpayer is the fact that our percentage of the total cost has been reduced from 39.70/6 in 1950, to 38.92o/s inlg5l.Thosenoblefellows,theRussians,havebeenup-
ped from 6,94% in 1950 to6,980/6 for l95l-and they hollcred likc stuck pigr when the increase wat voted." **
Continues Henry: "If you added to thie roughly 40/e contribution evcry year by the Unitcd States, the other contributions for originally putting the thing together at Dumbarton Oake and San Francisco, and Hunter College, and Lake Succesg, and Flushing, plus the cost of putting up the U. N. structures in New York City, it would all add up to quitc an item-and who do you suppose is paying for the so-called U. N. war in Korea?"
Of the fifty-odd members of the United Natione who gave us a vote of approval when we moved into the Korean situation, how many are actually helping us in that deadly conflict? Reliable newspapers on January 14 carried the following reliable report on that subject, as follows: "The United Nations reported today ground troops of 11 U' N' members are in the U. N. forces in Korea, plus naval and air units from a number of countries. Other forces are reported on the way in small numbers. In addition to the American soldiers, the summary showed the following units in action. Britain: undisclosed number of soldiers plus naval forces. Belgium: A battalion of about 1000 men, plus air transport. Canada: An advance force of a brigade group' plus ihree naval vessels and one air transport squadron' -Fr"n".: One infantry battalion. Greece: Unit of ground forces plus six transport planes. The Netherlands: Two or three infantry companies plus one destroyer' Thailand: One infantry combat team, plus two corvettes and navy transport. The Philippines: One regular combat team, 17 Sherman tanks, one tank destroyer. Australia: Ground forces plus one air squadron'and three naval vessels' Turkey: One infantry combat force. New Zealand has two frigates in action and an artillery formation reported en ,orit.. Bolivia, Nationalist China, Panama, Columbia, and Ethiopia have made offers of assistance. Supplies and food came from many countries around the world"' 'F )t
Recently the newspapers published reports on a difference of opinion concerning the Atom Bomb' One of Amer' ica's greaiest scientists declared his doubt that Russia really has the bomb. The chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission replied to that by declaring positively that Russia HAS the bomb. Since the scientist who does the doubting is in excellent position to have grounds for his opinion, and since he is an incomparibly smarter and brainier man than the man who disagreed with him, and since I believe that the fact that we are still on earth proves the Russians haven't the bomb, I shall continue to be a doubter' Since our gullibility in all such matters has, during the last de-

I have bcfore me a clipping romconc tent to mc, and, with nothing to Bhow who made the statemcnt I am about to quotc, I am unable to crcdit the author of a very logical discussion of thc Atom Bomb, which it: "I have no doubt that when man wa!, in the beginning, forced to develop some wcapon which would overcomc the sizc and savagery of bcaots, the animalr took a pr€tty poor view of thc man's development of the rpeer, and bow and arrow. The lion no doubt thought thir very wrfair and would like to have persuaded man to lay asidc hir superior wcapon and meet him on a strictly claw-and-fang basis. Wcll-that's what we have today. It ig no problem at dl to cstablish that thc hundrcds of millions of ignorant peoplc enelaved by the Kremlin'e dictators far outnumber the civilizcd, free people. What could be more natural than that the Kremlin, prevented from over-running the free world only by fear of the A-bomb superiority, should regard that superiority as an unfair advantage. Nothing surprising about that-that's the way the animals felt about man and his spear in the dawn period of life on this earth. The really astonishing thing, however, is that presumably civilized persons should listen to this propaganda and not only believe it, but advocate it. That is not only suicidal but an indication that many well-meaning persons who are enjoying the luxury of living in a civilized world do not possess intelligence to match. Winston Churchill exposed the argument against the A-bomb very well when he said it means 'that you don't use the A-bomb until after your enemy has shot you dead."'

"The real crux of the great debate, the key to the survival of the free world as we know it, involves the successful defense of Western Europe. That's Dwight Eisenhower's job. But, quite aside from this overwhelmingly important job, Dwight Eisenhower is that rarest of all gems in this era of dwarfs-a man of stature. In this era of pygmy leaders, he is a big man. He has been associated with winning. There's nothing perfect about Eisenhower any more than there is about any of the rest of us, but when he is viewed alongside the run-of-the-mill leadership of the Western world, he looms up like a giant. The people of the free world are hungry for someone in whom they may place confidence. Ike looks like their best bet."-Bill Henry in the Los Angeles Times. :F. *
As this is written there is being considered a cease fire proposal, one of the things to be considered being taking Communist China into the United Nations in exchange for her termination of the Korean war. The very suggestion is an insult to every American and a double insult to every boy who fell in Korea. It would mean the most shocking act of appeasement in the history of this or any other nation. Munich wasn't a patch on this. We would be saying to the Chinese Reds-"Stop killing our boys and we will make you one of us; you shall sit with us, eat with us, and we will be yorir friend." That such a thing could be even considered, staggers the imagihation of patriotic Americans.
"Your columns I read with great enthusiasrr, every issue ! They always inspire me because of the potent truths they hold.

Washington, D.C.-Architects, engineers arid buildersparticularly those in charge of construction for the Armed Scrvices-will find a gold mine of valuable information and suggestions in Timber for Recreational Buildings, a nerv bcoklet.
Just published by the Timber Engineering Company, an afiiliate of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association, this 24-page booklet vividly portrays the wide variety of design that can be achieved in recreational-type construction by the use of the three major systems of timber construction, each assuring a maximum of efficiency at marked economy in cost.
These three efficient wood construction systems, currentll' in wide use, are: (1) Lamella construction, (2) Glued Laminated construction, and (3) the Teco connector system.

Wasl'rington, D.C., Jan. l5-Thc National Production Authority took further action today to conserve critical construction materials for the mobilization program.
NPA established a system under which virtually all new private c.ommercial construction will be subject to specific NPA authorization, efrective at midnight Saturday, January 13, 1951.
Prior to February 15, as a gcneral rttle, attthorizations will be granted only in emergency cases.
Under an amendnrent to Order I\I-4, NPA's basic construction order, conrmercial constructiou generally will be atrthorized when it:
l. Furthers the defense effort.
2. Is essential to public health, rvelfare or safety.
3. Will alleviate or prevent a hardship to a particular community.
NI'A officials saicl the order rvill have the effect of making more materials available for construction of defense and defense-supporting projects, particularly for the industrial plant expansion program and for commttnities affected by military and industrial expansion.
Types of construction for which NPA authorization will be required include banks, office and loft buildings, hotels, motels and tourist camps, barber and beauty shops, garages, service stations, laundry and dry cleaning establishments, shoe repair and tailor shops, undertaking and cemetery buildings, community and neighborhood btrildings, restaurants, printing shops, and facilities for the storage, distribution, display or sale of consttmer goods, including all retail stores and shopping centers, and storage rvarehouses for personal effects.
In the case of a mrrltiple-use building. such as an apartment dwelling with stores or offices, attthorization would be required for constrttction of the portion intended for commercial purposes covered by the order.
The order places no restrictions on the construction of wholesale food establishments or wholesale supply facilities for fuel oil, gasoline, coal, gas distributing systems and pipelines.
It rvas pointed out that tl.re order also does not affect storage or warehouse builclings used by manttfacturers or processors.
NPA officials trrged btrilders to exercise caution in deciding rvhether construction has been legally commenced under the terms of the order before proceeding with work ou projects already underrvaY'
The order states that construction will be considered to hlve commenced rvhen a substantial quantity of building material has been incorporated into a building or structure. It cites as an example the pouring or placing of footings or foundations. Where tltere is a doubt, an application for exception or adjustnrent may be filed on the grounds of unreasonalrle individual hardship' NPA said that, in determining whether ttnreasonable hardship exists, it will consider among otlrer things the extent of work already done and the financial loss that might be incurred if the project rvere halted.
Constructiorr is defined as tlte €rection of any building, structure or project-including additions, extensions and alterations-through tl're incorporation-in-place on the site of materials rvhich are to be an integral and permanent part of the project.
Applications for constrttctiorr authorization witl be submittetl, on forms to be provided by NPA, to the regional office of the Department of Commerce in whose area the construction rvould be situated. Regional offices are in Iloston, Nerv York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Chicago, Atlanta, St. I-ouis, Kansas City, Dallas' Minneapolis, Denver, Seattle, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
NPA said that in considering an application to commence construction of a comluercial facility not related directly to the defense efiort it will take into account the type and quantity of rnaterials needed and on hand, as well as the effect on the commrtnity at large if the application should be rejected.
The order forbids any person to accept an order for, sell, or deliver any material, equipment or supplies rvhich he has reason to believe rvill be used in violation of the regulation.
It exempts projects to be constructed for the Defense Department and the Atomic Energy Commission' It continues provisions permitting new construction and alteratior.rs costing not more than $5000 in a l2-month period and llecessary expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repair.

There is a certain small county in the South located just below the Mason and Dixon llne, where the population is small, and has for generations been about evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats. Many a local election in that county has been decided by just a few votes.
One time, so the story goes, three of the citizens of that county went away back into the mountains on a hunting and fishing trip. Rising water in the mountain streams marooned them, and it was several weeks before the water receded.
But only one of the three hunters came out. The other two were never seen again. Eventually the survivor was arrested
The Formica Co. Cincinnati, Ohio, has introduced two new patterns of decorative plastics, Skylark and Fernglo, bringing to 80 the total number of color patterns ofiered.

and charged with having eaten the other two while they were stuck back there in the mountains. He was tried and found guilty of first degree murder, and was brought before the judgc for sentencing. The judge glared at him ferociously, in a manner hardly in keeping with his judicial position, as he said:
"James Dalton. on the third day of May, immediately ifter the hour of midnight, you shall be taken out by the sherifr of this county and hanged by the neck until you are dead. Yes, dead, and serve you right. You not only are guilty of the crime of cannibalism, but damn yore lousy hide you've ruined the Democratic majority in this county."

The Washington office of the Federal Housing Administration has recently issued revisions to the FHA Requirements for Individual Water Supply and Sewage Disposal Systems for the State of California, it was announced by John E. McGovern, district director of the Federal Housing Administration, Los Angeles. These revisions afrect the text of the booklet on that subject which was issued January l, 1945. As the revisions are applicable to all parts of the state, contractors engaged in this work may obtain a copy of the revisions fronr FHA offices in San Francisco, Fresno, Sacramento, Los Angeles, Long Beach, San Bernardino, or San Diego.
The revisions pertaining to Individual Water Supply Systgms are that only standard weight iron or steel rvater well casing shall be used and Table l, on l)age 5, l)art I, is deleted.
Briefly, the principal changes consist of a reduction irr permissive liquid depth frorn a minimum of 4'to a minimum of. 3l'. The previous maximum liquid depth was 5'. This has been changed to stipulate merely that a liquid depth greater than 6rf' shall not be considered in determining the tank capacity.
The minimum liquid gallonage capacity of the tank is based on the number of bedrooms served, and a new table is provided giving mininrnm sizes, ranging from 2 to 12 bedrooms. For exanrple, two-bedroom house is required to have a minimum liquid capacity of 500 gallons, a three bedroom house, 600 gallons, and a four-bedroom house, not less than 750 gallons. In cases where additional bedrooms can be reasonably anticipated the tank and disposal system capacity must be adequate for such anticipated needs. Where garbage grinders or automatic laundry equipment are specified and discharge into the system, the minimum required liquid capacity. There are other changes which are more minor in nature.
It is required that the scum storage volume, that is the space between the liquid surface and the top of the inlet and outlet devices, shall be not less than l4o/o of the total required liquid capacity. There are other changes rvhich are more minor in nature.
It should be noted. 1\Ir. N{cGovern continued. that these
changes are permissive only so far as FHA is concerned, and that the acceptance of the Health Department and Municipal Authorities having jurisdiction is required in all cases. In some case these requirements are in excess of those required by FHA.

''We have set forth the objective of making available the full resources of the industry to further desirable woods practices on all lands in private ownership; we have rec_ ognized the necessity for expanding the utilization of and markets for forest products in the development of perma_ nent forest industries; we have emphasized the need for better protection of our forests from fire, insects and di_ sease; we have stated our belief that the cooperative and educational approach to forest problems should be vig_ orously co'tinued on the basis of three-way collaboration by private forest owners and State and Federal govern_ ments, but that we are opposed to Federal regulalion of private forest manag.ement practices and Fedeial control of State forest policies; and we have emphasized that to retain the maximum proportion of forest land in private taxpaying ownership is a sound national land policy.,,
Mr. Martin concluded by saying, ,,The Tree Farm pro_ g'ram, a voluntary undertaking of private forest land o*rr"., designed to assure continuous forest growth, has brought about a substantial improvement of forest practices and should be continuously expanded," and that; ,,The policy statement invites all organizations and individuals to ioi" with us in furthering this program and the two imporiant companion programs: Keep America Green, and More Trees for America."
Eberly Thompson, vice president of M and M Wood Working Company, Portland, Ore., has been elected the new president of the Fir Door Institute.
The Institute, rvhich has its headquarters in Tacoma, Wash., is the national advertising, promotion, research, and quality control organization for stock door manufacturers in the Pacific Northrvest.
Mr. Thompson, who is a leading executive of one of the largest door companies in the United States, was elected at the annual meeting of the Fir Door Institute in Tacoma. He succeeds llerman Snider, executive vice president and general manager of Acme Door Corporation, Hoquiam, who served for the past two years.
The other officers elected by representatives of the eleven companies supporting the Institute are Charles E. Devlin, general sales manager, Simpson Logging Company, Seattle, vice president; J. P. Simps<-rn, vice president and general manager, Buffelen Manufacturing Company, Tacoma, secretary; Paul M. Smith, secretarv and general sales manager, The Wheeler Osgood Company, Tacoma, treasurer; and Mr. Snider, trustee.
In addition to election as officers of the organization, all five door executives rvere elected to serve as trustees of the Institute for the forthcoming year.
Mr. Thompson, lvho will head up the fir door industry during a critical period in the life of the nation, has been with M and M Wood Working Company, Portland, since 1948 when he joined the organization as executive assistant to the president. Prior to joining M and M he served as president of the Perfection Twine Company of Camas, Wash., from 1937.
During World War II he was Aide and Flag Lieutenant to Vice Admiral George D. Murray, leader of famed Task Force 17, and was later promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander.
Prior to going rvith Perfection Twine Company, he reorganized and refinanced the Chamber of Commerce of Vancouver, Wash., and served as its Executive Secretary for three years.
He is a national director of the National Association of Manufacturers, and is at present serving as one of the three West Coast members of the Forest Products Advisory Committee to the U. S. Munitions Board in Washington, D. C.
The Fir Door Institute, in addition to announcing the election of officers, also disclosed that production hit an alltime high during 1950. Not less than 10,500,000 stock doors, of various types and designs, were manufactured in the Pacific Northwest during the past twelve months.
"This stupen'dous production record," said John O'lIara Harte, managing director of the Institute, "was enough to provide doors for 900,000 homes. It demonstrates anew the flexibility and capacity of the Pacific Northwest door industry to meet any and all emergency conditions."
You would think that in such tirnes as these, there unfaltering tribute to "the land of the free" with no rnore woul<l arise among our people another Daniel Webster staging, preparation, manuscript or rnechanics than does (or a <krzen such, so great is the need). For fifty years thc soft-throated rnockingbird. Could any man have a that great orator macle it his sacred business in every finer mission than to preach with inspired words that public utterance never to resume his seat until he had sacred text-lovc of country-love of flag-love of homcfired at least a few verbal rockets into the skies on the land ? subject of patriotism, of love of country, of home, of Old Glory. No logical pleadings ever. His were the emotional outpourings of a patriotic heart and soul concerning the land and people he loved, the country and flag he adored; its greatness; the grandeur of its mission; its prornise of hope to the people of all the world. To spread such gospel was not just the pastime of his idle monreuts; it was the serious business of his life. From his eighteenth to his seventieth year he made innumerablc public addresses; and from no one of them did he ever orrrit a bit of trem*endous flag-waving.
Hc <1uote<l no statistics, referretl to no vital facts or figurcs on these occasions. Statistics are rnatters of the nrincl. True patriotic eloquence is of the heart. It has no nrore to do with figures, with concrete facts, or with <lire forebodings, than has the throbbing song of the mrrckingbird, singing to its mate at <lawn of a spring day. To Webster the love of country was something that fille<l his heart to overflowing, and he launched a priceless and
Lau'rence Ottinger, president, United States Plyrvood Corporation, leaves on January 19 tvith Mrs. Ottinger on the Grace Liner Santa Maria for Chile, Argentina and Brazil.
"A number of industrialists in South America," Mr. Ottinger said, "have evidenced an interest in the techniques and products u'hich rve have developed. Some have proposed associations rvith United States Plywood."
Mr. Ottinger added that he rvould discuss these proposed inter-Arnerican associations during the trip which will include Rio cle Janeiro, Buenos Aires and Santiago.
Patriotic oratory, of the type made famous, not only by Webster and Lincoln and Henry and Clay, but by scores of other great speakers through our history, is something difficult to define. It is something you reach tup into the clouds to get. If a man has it, he has it. No man can learn it, because in it there are no mechanics, no instruction books. When oratory comes, it is in the very air we breathe. In Arnerican history, oratory has always come in waves. There is a high tide of national oratory, followed by very low tides. Right at this time, with the fate of the nation at stake, there were never so fcw eloquent voices abroa<l in the land, instilling patriotic fire, and there was never before in all our history, such an opportunity, or such a need. Yes, we need a lot of stem-winding patriotic eloquence in this country. In a nation of 1.50,000,000 people which has in the past always produced a wealth of eloquent speakers, there must be many potential Daniel Websters. Maybe we'd better issue a call for volunteers.

Washington, D.C., Jan. l&-The nation's 26,000 retail lumber and building materials dealers stand ready to cooperate with local and National civil defense officials in developing plans for making materials readily available to repair any damage which might result in thi event of enemy attack, H. R. Northup, executive vice president of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, stated.
"Although certain materials undoubtedly will be scarce because of the shortage of metals, it is anticipated that building materials dealers will be able to maintain relatively good stocks of lumber, roofing, cement and other products needed to meet basic shelter requirements in case of bombing or other types of disaster," Mr. Northup said.
"Inventories of some of these materials have been comparatively small at some points owing to last year's unprecedented building activity, but retail stocks are being rebuilt steadily and should return to normal levels everywhere ear'ly this year.
"It is suggested that civil defense officials in each community confer rvith materials dealers in their locality and work out a coordinated plan for'meeting any need which may arise.
"With one or more retail yards in every city or town of any size, the retail dealers' stocks afiord a ready and convenient source of materials for emergency use.
"In addition, the industry has nearly 90,000 trucks which can be used to move building products to critical areas,
Sales and promotional plans for l95l were presented to Celotex sales representatives at a series of regional meetings conductecl throughout the country during the first half of January.

On the first day of January, 1951, a young oldster by the narne of llates Smith told the lumber business goodby after fifty-one consecutive years of active service rvithin the industry. There was no blare of trumpets accornpanying this .sepaiation. He simply "put out the fire and callecl the clog" as they use<l to say, slapped his hat.over his grey-baldish head, and called it a day.
He left behind him the record of a job that was done in so keen and courtly a manner' that there were no regrets to carry along with him. He carried, rather, into his retirement, the love of any army of people in the lumber industry who had known him long and well, and who sent him on his way with every good wish they were capable of generating. That's the way it is with Bates Smith.
He's going to sit in the sun for the rest of his days. Having decided in his early youth that some day he was going to quit work, he bought a home at his favorite California spot, Carmel, and has held it ever since, waiting for the day to come when he would have nothing better to do than live in it. Today it is being modernized in several ways, and in a couple of months Bates and his wife, which makes up the entire family, will settle'there. He has been an ardent member of the Bohemian Club in San Francisco for 36 years, always attends the meeting of the club in the Redwoods in summer' and from now on will probably visit the club and his club cronies there more frequeptly than he has been able to do in the past. That home in Carmel, his rvife, and the Bohemian Club, spell heaven to Bates Smith. So "he is going to heaven early. He will be a regular there.
Not all of his friends know that he has had one enthusiastic hobby all of his life; music. He possesses a magrificent baritone voice. I-ong ago he stuclied rnusic under olle of California's greatest vocal teachers, Mackenzie Gordon, of Sau l"rancisco. Ilates Smith's singing has been done quietly, only for himself, his family, and his closest friends. IJut it has been a splendid and inspiring part of his life. He might weil have been a famous singer, so critics say who hearcl him long ago' Ilut he chose to sell lumber for his living, and sing only for the fun of it. And that's how it's been.
A brief review of his business history: He was born in the Santa Clara Valley, but went to Hoquiam, Washington, in 1900, to learn about lumber from the milling end. He stayed there two years, then returned to California and went to work for the old Wenclling-Nathan Lumber Company in San Francisco. In 1906 they sent him to one of their retail lumber yards, the Napa Lumber Company, where he learned about the retail end of the business.
In 1907 he joined the Pine IJox & Lumber Company, and tl-ren in 1910 he was connected with Northwestern Redwood Company. In 1918 he arrived in Los Angeles and formed a wholesale lumber partnership with the late Cy Hooper, calling it the Hooper & Smith Lumber Company. Six years later he formed his own wholesale lumber concern, calling it the A. W' Smith Lumber Company, which he operated until 16 years ago' u,hen he accepted the position of manager for the Southern California operations of MacDonald & Harrington, and he rernained in that capacity until the last day of December, 1950' That's the story.
If, dear friend, you should in the near future be passing the door of a modest home in Carmel, California, and should hear a n,elodious baritone voice lifted in happy song, the chances are it will be Bates Smith;a free man after 5l years of lumbering.
Albert A. Zander, veteran of Wortd War II and former Nebraska building contractor, has been added to the stafr of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association and will sPend most of his time in the exPanding work of the Trade Promotion DePartnrent, of which Robert E. Mahaffay is director.
Rry "Pinky" Nodtvcdt has been elected president of the Kiwanis Club, Bell Gardens, Calif., for 1951. He was installed it a dinner meeting on January 3.
Phil Dahlquirt, lumber buyer for Schaecher-Kux Lumber Co., Eugene, Oregon, was in Los Angeles around January 10. He called on Kendall Lumber Distributors' sales rePresentatives for his firm.
Fred B. Smaler, western division manager' United States I'lywood Corp., Los Angeles, flew to the Northwest early in January to visit Seattle, Portland and Spokane, and called on the San Francisco and Oakland warehouses on the way home, traveling all the way by air.
Corps of Engineers in 1941 as a buck private and rose rapldly through the ranks and was discharged as a captain in 1944.
Zander brings to his new position an .intimate understanding of the problems of the small contractor, home builder and farmer lumber user. His years of experience in the light construction industry make him ideally suited to trade promotion work for the lumber manttfacturer'

Washington, D.C.-"In war and in peace this nation's forests have met and are meeting the demands made upon thcm."
'fhis is the conclusion reached in a newly published 24 page appraisal of "The Nation's Wood Supply" now being distributed nationally by American Forest Products Industries.
Using photographs and charts; the attractive four-color booklet reviews the progress in forestry and forest management made in the United States during the last half century. Facts and figures used in the puhlication are based on official forest statistics published by the federal government'
"The Nation's 'Wood Supply" was planned and compiled by leaders in the lumber, pulp and paper, plywood and allied industries representing every geographical section of the United States. The booklet points out that for 30 years there has been a definite upward trend in annual growth of forests and that timber growth is approaching a balance with wood consumption.
The book cites the "cooperation of public and private agencies in closing the gap between wood removal and wood growth." Listed as major forest replenishing'factors in the United States are : improved markets for wood; better forest protection against fire, insects and disease; expansion of nursery facilities and increased tree planting; better wood utilization in plants and mills; new scientific develop-
ments; and the increasing number of college-trained foresters employed in the management of privately owned timberlands
American Forest Products Industries, Inc., with offices at'1319 Eighteenth Street, N.W., Washington 6, D. C., is making the booklet available free of charge. A non-profit, non-political public-service organization AFPI encourages the Keep America Green and Tree Farm programs nationally.

New standards in luxury ocean travel will be set in 1951 when the ultra-modern 26,000-ton American Export Liners Independence and Constitution make their debuts in express service to the Mediterranean.
Incorporating the best that American ingenuity can devise for the comfort, convenience and safety of travelers, the 1,O00-passenger vessels will be the fastest ships in the l-ristory of the American merchant marine. They will be the largest built in this c-ountry in more than a decade and the first big transatlantic luxury liners to be fully air-conditioned.
The Independence is scheduled to make her maiden voyage with a gala 53-day Mediterranean cruise leaving New York February 10, 1951, later entering transatlantic express service. Her sistership, the Constitution, will make her bow later in the Spring when she enters regular New York-France-Italy express service.
The total cost, $50,000,000, sets a single contract record for two vessels. In safety, they have been hailed by government and industry leaclers as meeting or exceeding the world's highest standards. As for speed, the Independence has already established an American merchant marine record of 26.105 knots during speed trials in December and her sistership is eypected to equal or better that mark.
New conceptions in passenger and crew comfort will be intro- River Yard, Quincy, Mass. The Inde-p_e-nden_ce \eel was laid down in <luced with the'new liners. EvJry p".i.ng". in each of the vessels' March, 1949, and, launched June 3, 1950.. The Corrstitution keel was three classes-first, cabin and touri;t-and'the 575 officers and crew laid in July, 1949, and she was launched in September, 1950. of each ship will enjoy the many refinements that go to make up modern Ameri.can living standards. Prominent among these is the air-conditioning which extends through all classes and crew living quarters. Some $2,000,000 was spent in air-conditioning each vessel.
The Independence and Constitution are the products of many years and many thousands of dollars in research, planning and experiment. They were designed by experts of Bethlehem Steel Company's Shipbuilding Division, assisted by L. S. Andrews, vice president-operations of American Export Lines and his staff. Their interiors were created by one of the country's best known designers, Henry Dreyfuss.
Statistically, the Independence and Constitution are each 683 feet long with 89-foot beam and a draft of 30 feet. They have nine decks and 7 cargo holds, with a total capacity of 2,580 tons, including space for refrigerated perishable cargo. Their twin stacks and single mainmast are set at rakish angle.
Both ships are being built at the Bethlehem Steel Company, Fore
The speed of the great liners is emphasized bv their ooerating on eight day-schedules from New York to Naples, a 4,000 mile crossing. 'l'lreir 22,000-mile cruisinq range gives thent the capacity of carrying 5,000 troops and their equipment on a continuous voyage to any port in the world. Bethlehem turbines of 58.000 horsepower capaclty drive two 27-ton oropellors, the greatest amount of power ever installed on any American passenger vessel.
Without Deer safety-wise, the Independence and Constitution have two engine rooms separated by water-tight bulkheads and capable of being operated independently. Their ten, three-ton life-boats are the largest in the world, having capacities of more than 140 persons each. Automatic, mechanical and visual fire detecting fire alarnr and fire-fighting systems cover the entire ships, while fireproof and fire resistant materials are used throughout, including partitions, draperies and floor coverings. Both liners have the latest radar equipment.

The shipr werc built with the travelcr'l comfort, pleerurc and safety in mind and, ap.rt from thc bcauty of thc interiort, furnirhings were dccigncd with an eye towerd functionelirm. In Firrt and Cabin Class rtatcroom3, for cxample, berths roll into thc wallr, ro that the rooms are rpacious living rooms by day and comfortable sleeping quartcrs with beds by night.
Widesprcad soundproofing of public rooms will bring rcatful quietness in cvcry cpacc where pasEcngers gather, The circular sweep of the Observation Loungc picture windows will take in mott of the horizon. This "Box Seat on the Sca" is one of thc many typi- cally up-to-date advantages built into the Independence and Constitron, Interior rooms are no longer the "inside cabins" of traditional ocean travel. Air is always fresh, and the passenger on thesc.ships will regulate the thermostat to makc his room es warm or as cool as he likcs, a far cry from the old "inside cabin" which was badly ventilated.
These great liners, which will be exemplars of modern American living at sea on the sun-lane to Europe, represent numerou3 breaks with shipping tradition. Gone is the garishness of the old Grand Hotel type of steamer. Pipes and ducti have been concealed and even dresser drawer pulls have been recessed for the sake of ap- p€arance and safety.
In the 14 luxurious suites on both vessels are sumptuous bedrooms, bath rooms and sitting rooms. Four of the suites have their own private verandas.
First and Cabin Class staterooms are equipped with convertibte sofa berths fush against the wall. Rooms ian be changed quickly from bedroom to livins room, Dressers can be turned into vanitv living ressers vanity tables by lifting the toi which provides a makeup mirror. Rooms have full-lencth. wide mirrors. Colors used are blice. srev. qr€en- full-length, ririrrors. are blige, grey, gr€enblue, rust and yellow.
Polarized stateroom porthole lenses can be.regulated to let in
a!- much or as little light as desired, a device that banishes glare, yet allows a clear view.
Many of the bulkheads are covered with fine woods and rare veneers,
In keeping with the luxurious surroundings. food and service on the Independence and Constitution will be keyed to the exacting demands of connoisseurs of good eating. Chefs, stewards and baimen who are masters of their arts will iater to the tastes of the passengers. Quick laundry and valet service wilt emphasize the metropolitan quality of life aboard the speedy liners.
_ There are 20 public rooms on the Independence and Constitu- tion. They are identical on each vessel excep[ for items of decor and, rn some tnstances, names.
Twelve air-conditioned kennels wilt make for pleasant voyagcs by canine traveters. Barber, speciatty and gift, book and beauty lhops are among the liner's excellent facilities. Passengers will have shipto--shore telephones at their disposal with an unusual range of 5,000 miles and among the many other modern features will be electric baths and passenger elevators. Deck chairs were specially designed for comfort and made of a new plastic webbing on aluminum frames.
Unusual peninsula wings extend on eithei side of the tiled First Class pool, with an upper deck for sunbathing and lower level for lounging. A Typically American soda bar is found in the handsome S-ca Island Club, a cafe terrace separated front the pool by sliding glass doors.
Bill Haskin, salesman for the United States Plywood Corp. in the Sacramento Valley, has been sent to Spokane as acting manager to replace Jack Staley, who is on an extended leave of absence.
North Bend, Oregon, January 9, 1951 (Special)-Despite an unusually wet fall, construction progress on Weyerhaeuser Timber Company's new sawmill here is proceeding on schedule, according to Arthur O. Karlen, manager. The mill is expected to start operation in mid-'51.
The major buildings on t'he 40 acre plant site are nearly all under roof.and sided in and considerable progress is being made on interior installations, such as sawmill machinery. Much of this equipment has been received and is being set in place and aligned for operation. The 300,000 foot capacity mill have a main double-cut headrig and a short side, with a gang saw and other remanufacturing machinery.
Buildings now up and practically finished are the four units of the planing mill and shipping sheds, three brick dry kilns, the main sawmill unit rvith green sorting chain, a power plant with 250 foot stack, a machine shop and general office building. About 500 men are busy on the plant site.
Because clean, sound wood will be chipped for Kraft pulping use and because other milling by-products will be used as fuel in the power plant, there are no present plans for building a waste burner on the millsite. The mill will obtain its logs from the company's 205,000 acre Millicoma Tree Farm, on rvhich logging is underway.

Thc love of dirt ir among the earliest of paeeionr, al it is the latert. Mud-pics gratify one of our first and begt instincts. So long aE we are dirty, we are pure. Fondness for the ground comes back to a man after he has run the 'round of pleaeure and businesa, eaten dirt, sowcd wild oats, drifted about the earth and taken the wind of all its moods. The love of digging in the ground (or looking on while others dig) is as sure to come back to him as he is sure, at last, to go under ground and stay there.
To own a bit of ground, to scratch it with a hoe, to plant seeds and watch their renewal of life-this is the commonest delight of the race, the most satisfactory thing a man can do. When Cicero writes of the pleasures of old age, that of agriculture is chief among them. To dig in the soil-to dig moderately, for all pleasure should be taken sparingly-is a great thing. One gets strength out of the ground as often as one touches it with a hoe. Antaeus was no doubt an agriculturalist; and such a prize'fighter ag Hercules could do nothing with him till he got him to lay down his spade and quit the soil. It is not simply potatoes and beets and corn and cucumbers that one raises in the well-hoed garden; it is the average of human life.
There is life in the ground; it goes into the seeds; and it also, when it is stirred up, goes into the man who stirs it. The hot sun on his back as he bends to his shovel and hoe, or rakes the warm and fragrant loam, is better than much medicine. Blessed be agriculture ! If one does not have too much of it. AU literature is fragrant with it, in a gentlemanly way. At the foot of the charming olivecolored hills of Tivoli, florace had a sunny farm; it was in sight of Hadrian's villa, who did landscape-gardening on an extensive scale, and probably did not get half as much comfort from it as Horace did from his more simply tilled acres. We trust that Horace did a little hoeing and farming himself, and that his verse is not all fraudulent sentiment. In order to enjoy agricultu:e you do not want too much of it, and you want to be poor enough to have a little inducement to work moderately yourself.-Charles Dudley Warner.

And you should come to my cold corpse and kneel, Clasping my bier to show the grief you feel; I say, if I should die tonight

Three weeks after sister Jessie got to boarding-school, she began to-go high-hat. Brother Tom stood it for a while, but when one day they got a letter signed "Jessica," he couldn't stand any more of it, so he wrote her as follows:
"Dear Jessica: Dadica and Momica have gone to visit Aunt Lizzica. Uncle Samica is buying a new car, but doesn't know whether to buy a Fordica or a Chevica. Our cowica just had another calfica. I started to name it Nellica but changed it to Jimica when I found it was a bullica. Why don't you come homica? Your Loving Brother, Tomica."
It isn't called the "graveyard shift" because of its early morning hours or because, as one authority states, of the number of accidents which have occurred in that aftermidnight trick. Corruption of an age-old seafaring term put the phrase into the language of every factory er4ployee in the nation during war time. Centuries ago mariners referred to the middle-watch, the one from midnight to four A.M. as the "gravy-eye" watch, because then their eyes usually were sticky from sleep. During the years that followed, some slip between tongue and ear changed "gravy-eye" to our less picturesque "grave-yard'"-Ships.

Grainwood, made from lumber by the same Process as internationallY known Etch Wood, is the newest wood specialtY, and it will soon be on the market in redwood and fir. The machine for making Grainwood has been designed and built by C. T. McElroy, inventor of the Etch Wood process.
Grain wood gives a planking effect with random width boards that will have great appeal. An important feature of this new sPecialty is its ease of installation. It can in fact be installed by the homeowner.
It is manufactured by Sequoia International, Inc., which is associated with Sierra Lumber Products, 1111 South Marengo Ave., Pasadena 5, Calif. Ham Payne, W. J. (Bill) Stava, and C. T. McElroy (inventor of the process) are associated with the concern.

taken by the fir industry. Gross stocks at mills December 31, 1950 had shrunk over 160 million feet below the previous year-end totals.
Smith said the Douglas fir industry had overcome a critical summer-long freight car shortage and crippling weather in January and February to set these new production and shipping highs.

Washington, D. C.-A new booklet, for hardwood and furniture manufacturers, purchasing agents, and Government buyers, containing valuable information on tow grade hardwood utilization and Milpak production, is now available upon request from Timber Engineering Company, 1319 Eighteenth Street, N. W., Washington 6, D. C.
Milpak, a scientifically engineered hardwood product, was created to fulfill a twofold purpose. For hardwood manufacturers it is an outlet for low grade stock in hitherto untouched markets. For consumers it permits maximum utilization of lumber, minimum storage space requirements and low rough mitl labor costs.
Standard Milpak grades will appear in the 1951 hardwood grade rules book of the National Hardwood Lumber Association. These rules are also contained in this new TECO booklet.
Milpak was developed by a research project conducted in the TECO Itboratory for the Hardwood Research Committee of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association. Government agencies in preparing hardwood specifications for Defense items will find this booklet of particular value.
