NPA Eases Controls on Building

Washington, March 6.-The government today eased housing, commercial, highway and building controls on .gchool projects.

;..rThe National Production Authority, dropping an earlier restrict new homes ipl.an to limit the size of dwellings and tq' lrl bathrooms each, issued:

;; 1. A new, one-package housing order increasing by 500 may use without t,'pounds the steel which a home-builder applying to N.P.A.

2. An order combining all other construction controls into il:,ra.single'document. It increases the tonnage of steel auto'lii:rnaticallv allowed for commercial, school and other smaller ;;iron-residential proje'cts, as well as roads and highways.

;. As originally proposed, the orders were intended to eurb iconstruction. But they rvere revised frequently during two ilmonths of discussion with the construction industry. Meantime, shortages of steel and aluminum eased noticeably. N.P.A.'s announcement today said:

"Most of the changes in the construction regulations liberalize controls'rather than tighten any of them or impose any further restrictions."

* Bruce's Spring Advertising Campaign

. Harvey Creech, advertising manager of E. L. Bruce Co., announces that the Bruce company is using the heaviest advertising schedule in its history for the spring campaign on household products.

Black and white ads of 100, 20C and 300 lines will appear ;weekly from January 29 throtrgh June 1l in 173 newspapers in 123 cities. Bruce floor cleaner, Bruce cleaning wax and the Bruce doozit will be featured in most instances.

Half page, four color ads are appearing in the February, March, April and May issues of Better Homes and Gardens and McCall's.

Spot announcements and participation shows are scheduled on television in key cities throughout the country. I Trade advertising on the Bruce line consists of a series of full pages in two colors in Hardware Age, Hardware Retailer, Housewares Revierv, Chain Store Age and Super

Major Changes

Most provisions of the new orders have been announced as agreements were reached rvith the construction industry. The major changes in the housing regulations, effective at once, include:

An increase of 2300 pounds of steel per dwelling unit in the amount which may be "self-authorized"-that is, used without application to N.P.A. for a quota. The quantity is increased proportionally for two-family, three-family and four-family buildings.

A decrease of 25 pounds of copper to a total of 135 pounds per dwelling unit, for housing equipped with copper water piping systems. However, copper usage is increased where local building codes require that metal in underground connections.

Aluminum may be substituted for copper in wiring, one pound,of aluminum may replace two pounds of vopper.

For alterations or enlargements of existing dwellings, builders may use up to half the materials t'hich are permitted for new dwellings.

Market 1\{erchandising.

Christiansen Advertising Agency, Chicago, prepared the campaign.

Los Angeles Building Permits

Building permits lor 4,628 new structures rvith a total valuation of $21,779,447 :tere issued in the city of Los Angeles during February, according to G. E. Morris, City Superintendent of Building. Included were permits for 1,720 new dwelling units.

This was a rise of about $3,500,000 over January, and Mr. Morris called it a surprising upturn in bulding activity.

Arthur Brisbane, famous editor of the Hearst papers long ago, used to say that an amb,itious advertising man needed two things, a brain and a set of Shakespeare. He thought that a command of language and the ability to use it intelligently were the great assets of an ad man, and that Shakespeare could furnish that command of language. Brisbane warned, however, that you had to supply the brains yourself.

An immortal tribute ,o*.nl *gri"r, people-one of the most unusual ever written-came from the pen of a very gifted Scotchman, Sir Walter Scott. It appears in the introduction to Scott's great poem book, "The Lady of the Lake." ft amounts to a remarkable character sketch of the English breed, when Scott writes of "the generous compassion which the English-more than any other nationfeel for the misfortunes of an honorable foe." Isn't that a most original and impressive compliment to a race? And isn't it worth thoughtful contemplation ?

Compassion is a Christ-like characteristic at any time and in any breast. But the compassion that finds expression in the hearts of warriors for an honorable foe, deserves the praise of both men and angels. Nothing more original and thought-provoking "Of""i" in all Sir Walter's writings.

Henry George said: "The more you study the question, the more you will see that the true law of life is the law of love, the law of liberty, the law of each for all and all for each; that the golden rule of morals is also the golden rule of the science of wealth; that the highest expression of religious truth includes the widest generalizations of political economy."

Peter B. Kyne once *rl*. ".i"erning a friend who had died: "He has known sorrow, and ingratitude, and treachery, and broken faith, and unrequited love, and a long Gethsemane of pain, yet he has never been embittered, nor ever spoken ill of anyon..; Yn1. an epitaph !

The law of life is the law of progress. It was the prophet Elijah who said: "It is enough; now, Oh Lord, take my life, for I am no better anl Tt fathers."

A man with a reputation for generosity and fair dealing can get a better trade out of any man any time than can the well-known tightwad. There is absolutely no good return from meanness and rniserliness.

Ben Franklin was the 15th child born in a family of tZ

children. The othler 16 were ordinary run-of-the-mill humans. The l5th was of the Eagle tribe. Fortunate for America that birth-control was unknown to those early colonials : otherwise there would have been no Ben Franklin.

Ifere are five brief commandments that have helped many a man to remove the crooks and the ruts from the pathway of life: Be Fair, Be Square, Be Courteous, Be Considerate, Be Kindly.

Someone has wisely said that no Fifth Columnist ever marched on his mission of evil out of a home of his own. Meaning that men who own their homes and possess the sort of consciousness that prompts them to save and sacrifice to own their own firesides, are never destructionists. They build up, but never tear down.

While fire is no doubt a major enemy of wood, it is nevertheless true that it is not the greatest. Dampness destroys many times more wood than does fire, and is wood's greatest enemy. Some woods, it is true, laugh at dampness. But the average wood is much longer lived if kept dry enough to prohibit the attacks of fungus growths. Notice how the wood things in and about the home, regardless of species, continue free from rot indefinitely when protected from the weather. The wooden items taken from old Egyptian tombs have been splendidly preserved for thousands of years, because of the dry, dark vaults in which they were placed. Keep your wood dry, and it will repay you with generous interest. Exterior building woods, kept dry by being well painted, keep sound and rot-free.

Many years ago an American traveler in Portugal, reported having seen and copied verbatim a remarkable b.it of tree philosophi.y he found posted on the edge of a public forest over there: "Ye who pass by and raise your hand against me, hearken ere you harm me. I am the heat of your hearth on the cold winter nights; the friendly shade, screening you from the summer sun; my fruits are refreshing draughts quenching your thirst as you journey on; I am the plank that builds your house; the board of your table; the bed on which you lie; the timber that builds your boat; f am the hand'le of your hoe; the door of your homestead; the wood of your cradle ; the shell of your coffin. I am the bread of kindness, the flower of beauty. Ye who pass me bn listen a"_ -I prayer ! Harm me not !"

Here is a force, he said, that we have ,. been simply playing with. However, it appears, that since .' the great scientist made that statement, the world's chief efforts in the way of research have been along lines far i: removed from the spiritual; have rather ushered in the atomic age, with its devastating possibilities. However, u;'Steinmetz did not date the coming of his prophecy. Time marches on. '***

John Ruskin said: "Let every dawn of morning be to you as the beginning of life, and every setting sun be to you as its close, then let every one of those short lives leave its own sure record of some kindly thing done for others, some goodly strength or knowledge gained for yourself."

,. "Let reverence for LAW be breathed by every mother ii to her lisping babe. Teach it in colleges. Write it into primers, spelling books, and almanacs. Preach it in pulpits. Proclaim it in the legislative halls. Enforce it in the courts of justice. Let it become the political religion of every l'. nation, and let men and women of all tongues and colors sacrifice unceasingly at its altars."-Afus Lincoln.

"Ife who is silent is forgotten; he who abstains is taken at his word; he who does not advance, falls back; he who stops. is overwhelmed, distanced, crushed; he who ceases to grow, becomes smaller; he who leaves off, gives up; the stationary condition is the beginning of the end."-Amiel.

"To be honest, to be kind, to earn a little and spend a little less, to make upon the whole a family happier for his presence, to renounce when that shall be nicessary and not to be embittered, to keep a few friends, but these without capitulation; above all on the same conditions, to keep friends with himself ; here is a task for all a man has of fortitude and delicacl."-Robert Louis Stevenson.

"We cannot define God, or any of the great values of life. What is the vague thing called Truth, that is worth living and dying for?

CPR 126--Ceiling Prices lor Pacific Northwest Douglas Fir And

Ponderosa Pine Poles and Plling

Dollars-and-cents ceilings for standard dimensions of untreated Douglas fir and Ponderosa pine poles and pilings produced on the West Coast were announced recently by the Office of Price Stabilization.

The ceilings are spelled out for these items, and also for untreated anchor logs, reinforcing stubs and short round material, produced in California and the sections of Oregon and Washington in and west of the Cascade Mountains.

The new ceilings are prestribed in Ceiling Price Regulation 726, effective February 25, 1952, which supersedes the General Ceiling Price Regulation, GCPR.

The new regulation also establishes a method for determining ceiling prices for these items when they have been preservatively treated.

Except for small dimension items, the new ceilings are higher than those established January 26, 1951, by the GCPR, which froze prices.when the market was depressed.

OPS said the higher ceilings were established to encourage production to meet a serious shortage of poles and piling which is adversely affecting construction for the Armed Forces, Tennessee Valley Authority, Bureau of Reclamation, Bonneville Power Administration, private utilities, railroads and defense industries.

On intermediate sizes and lengths, covering the bulk of production, the increase over GCPR ceilings ranges from five to 20 per cent. On very large poles, the increase is up to 40 per cent. The new ceilings are related to the ceilings spelled out in Ceiling Price Regulation 97 for saw logs and veneer logs produced in the Pacific Northwest.

During 1950 the demand for poles and piling 1\ras unusually small, amounting to only 43 per cent of the 1949 production, with the result that the market was depressed. Trees that normally would have been converted into poles and pilings were diverted to the production of saw logs. Moreover, during the GCPR base period of f)ecember 19, 1950, to -fanuary 25, 1951, there was also a seasonal slackNCSS.

Poles and piling are select peeled logs, generally cut in lengths longer than saw logs. Poles are used to support

telephone and electric transmisbion lines. Piling is used in the foundations of buildings and in'the construction of bridges, docks, and wharves. They must be free from defects and have more rigid requirements for straightness than saw logs.

Suitable trees are limited and are generally scattered through a tract of timber. For this reason, and because they must be handled in longer lengths than saw logs, the production of poles and piling, except for the smaller dimensions, is more expensive than the production of saw logs.

The new regulation spells out ceilings for untreated poles, piling, and other round materials covered, clean peeled, for various diameters and lengths, per lineal foot, in carload lots, delivered at the producer's normal loading out point, either f.o.b. car or boomed and rafted in towable waters.

Prices for poles range from 11 cents per lineal foot for the smallest sizes and lengths up to 90 cents per lineal foot for poles 100 feet in length. '

Prices for piling range from 14 cents per lineal foot for piling with a minimum diameter of eight inches, 15 to 17 feet in length, to $1.20 per lineal foot for piling with a nrinimum diameter of 20 inches and 128 ro 132 feet in length.

For the shorter length items prices range from l5 cents per lineal foot for minimum diameters of five inches to 60 cents per foot for minimum diameters of 16 inches.

I)ifferentials are provided for selected lengths, cutting poles and piling to required lengths, rough peeled and unpeeled, less than carload lots, and other particulars.

N{ethods are prescribed for determining delivery costs which may be added to ceilings for deliveries beyond the normal loading out points.

On sales delivered short of the normal loading out point, the producer must deduct from the ceiling price the cost of transportation to the normal loading out point. The cost of loading at railroad shipping points, or booming and raftirrg in tou'able u'aters, must be deducted from the ceilings if not performed by the producer.

Curtis Voodwork dealers have found a simple way to avoid headaches-and to build profits with less effort. They order all the windows and woodwork for any given iob from a single source of supply: Curtis.

The Curtis Silentite window family, for instance, offers such wide variety-so many different window styles-that it meets practically any window need. Curtis W'oodwork, too, is available in a complete line to suit any taste, any size of building budget.

Ordering everything from Curtis meani that the complete job will be harmonious, satisfying, with no "kick-backs." There's less paper work, too, when there's only one order and one handling. And remember, Curtis Silentite'Windows and Voodwork provide ONE high standard of quality, favorably known among home owners, contfactofs and architects throughout the country.

(Continued from Page 18)

The nerv regulation prescribes means of determiniirg ceilings for preservatively treated poles and piling and short rcund materials by applying adjustments to the GCPR ceilings on such items. The adjustment'for any particular item is the difference, plus or minus, between the highest price at whi'ch the treater contracted during the period January 25 to February 24,1951, to purchase the untreated item. and tl-re new spelled out ceiling for the untreated item.

If a treater wishes to determine a ceiling price for a particular treated item which he did not contract to purchase in untreated form during the prescribed period, he obtains his adjustment from the differential between the highest contracted purchase price of his most comparable untreated item and the new spelled out ceiling price for the untreated item.

Treaters who cannot determine ceilings in this manner must apply to the Director of Price Stabilization for approval of a proposed ceiling price, which they may not employ until approved by OPS.

Producers may similarly apply for ceilings for untreated items for which prices are not spelled out, but may, pending approval of the ceilings, sell the items at the proposed ceilings, subject to adjustment to conform to any changes lvhicl, OPS may take in the ceilings.

Persons who buy or sell poles and piling or the other materials covered in the regular course of business must maintain ,complete records of sales or purchases made in any month in which they sold or bought more than $1,000 worth of the items covered.

Steve Yaeger and Robert E. Kirk Purchase Lumber Business o[ Laws & Yaeger Co.

Steve Yaeger and Robert E. Kirk have purchased the storb, lumber and building material business of Laws & Yaeger Co. in Santa Rosa from Henry H. Laws, it was announced there recently.

Price of the transaction was not disclosed. The sale, which involved both money and stock was effective March 1.

Mr. Laws, who purchased the firm in 1931, will retain ownership of the planing mill and glass department which will be managed "for the present" by a new corporation, Laws & Seimears. He will be joined in this venture with his son-in- -law, Frederick Seimears, formerly treasurer of Laws & Yaeger Co.

Mr. Laws said his new firm will become "primarily a development and investment company."

Mr. Yaeger said the lumber end of the business will be managed by a new corporation, Yaeger & Kirk. He said there would be no change in policy.

Officers of I-aws & Yaeger are Mr. Laws, president; Mr. Yaeger, vice president; Mr. Kirk, secretary, and Mr. Seimears, treasurer.

The sale has developed during the past year, Mr. Laws said, during which time Mr. Yaeger had the option to buy.

Laws & Yaeger, one of the largest lumber firms in the North Bav area, was founded more than 5O years ago by the late Frank Berka. The lumber yard and adjacent buildings were built first at 8th and Wilson Sts. and the firm has never moved from that location

The land is still owned by the Berka family. Mr. Berka's widow died last year.

Frank Berka Co. was purchased in lV25 by E. U. White, who in 1931, sold the company to Mr. Lar.vs. In 1944 the name of the firm was changed from Henry Laws & Co., Inc., to Larvs & Yaeger Co.

The firm owns land and buildings on both sides of Wilson St. between Sth and 9th Sts. and on the corner of 7th St.

In 1934 the firm purchased the Huntington Planing Mill and in 1949 added glass products to its line.

The firm built a new offrce building in 1948.

Mr. I-aws said the sale did not mean he would separate himself entirely from the business. He is a director of the Exchange Bank in Santa Rosa, a stockholder and director of the Willits Redwood Product Co. in Willits and a director of Rheurs Transportation Co., a Willits trucking firm.

A native of Delaware, he came to Santa Rosa in 1931 after working in the lumber business in the Bay Area for many yeafs.

Mr. Yaeger, 44, was schooled in Sebastopol and has worked in the lumber industry for more than 25 years. He joined the firm when it was known as the E. U. White Co.

He served for 4 years on the Santa Rosa City Council, is a past vice president of the Chamber of Commerce and is active in Boy Scout activities. He is a director of the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California.

Mr. Kirk, 47, came to Santa Rosa in 1925 from }food River, Ore. He is a native of Pennsylvania. He has worked for Laws & Yaeger Co. for the past 15 years.

Lumber Stands Ready

Nation's Cldest Industry Can Supply Strong, Lasting Replacements for War-divertzd Steel ond Cther Metals

Whenever the u'orld faces an emergency situation as it does toclay, nrilitary and economic planners must look first to the supply of materials necessary to sustain military operations ancl to provide at least the n.rinimum essentials for the civilian poirulations.

These days naticlns everyrvhere are having to make decisions betr.rreen "guns ancl butter." In some parts of the rvorlcl, the decision must result in austerity programs because of limited supl>lies of all resources. \\re in the United States, likeu.ise. mrrst tighten our belts in the present emergency; but ne can still enjoy a considerable amotlnt of slack because of our immense output of products fronr a bountiful soil. One of those proclucts, second olrly to foocl irr its militarr- and economic importance, is n'oo<I. The United States is resuonsible for half of the t'orlct's total Iumber procluctior-r.

Moclern u'ars and modern civilization are foundecl on 'n,ood. Worlcl \\rar II, for example, rvhich ll,as the urost highly rnechanized corrflict in the historv of the u'orld, utilizecl more l'ood than did all the nation's Drevious u'ars combined.

'fodav, clefcnse mobilization l'ras already placed a strain on our productive capacity for steel, copper, and aluminttm. The National Production Authority points out that anticipated requirements for steel are far in excess of anticipated producticin, in spite of curbs in construction and other fielcls u,hich tend to limit less essential uses.

The Nfunitior.rs Roarcl and the l)efense Production Administration are urging military and civilian users of critical materials to re-examine their specifications u'ith a vieu' to greater use of more plentiful materials such as u'oricl. In this respect, the present national emergency is follol'ir-rg r:losely the pattern of \\rorld \\rar II.

I-umber stands reacly to fill both its military and civilialr recluirernents, ancl to lil1 the gaps created by scarcity of other materials.

I)rincipal use of softu'ood lumber in peacetime is in constmctior.r. Principal use of hardrvoods is in manufactured products such as furnitrrre, boxes, flooring, millu'ork, cars, handles, etc. The types of lumber recluired in a l'ar program are the same as those needecl for civilian use. Therefore, the lumber inclustry can easily convert to a l'artime basis. Even u'hen special u'artime clemands cail for products not norr.nally procluced by the industrl', about the only changes necessary in industrv operations are those recluirecl to meet specificatiorls as to size and grade. There is ncr problenr, generallr', of speciai re-toolirrg, scrapping of existing facilities. or clevelopment of neu' skills among the prorlucers.

Thus lumber stands ever ready to convert overnight from :r pe:rcetime to a u'artime basis; and l'hen the dove of peace

returns, the industry just as quickly can go all out for civilian production.

Wood Makes the Difference

At no tirne has the United States really facecl a shortage of rvood. Wliile the capacity of otl.rer industries can be measured rvith a reasonable degree of accuracy, no one really knor,vs the fu11-operating capacity of the lumber industry \\re knorv, however, that it is very large.

For example, back in 1906-1907 the industry proclucecl 39 billion l>oard feet annually. ]'roduction dropped to l0 billion feet in 1932-during the depression years. In 1940, production jumped to 29 hillion feet. Responcling to increased u'ar and civilian demands, the industry produced 33.6 billion feet in 1941. Then in 1950, it produced 38 billicn feet. u.hich reflected the year's big demand for houses.

'I'he secret of the industry's ability to respond to the pulse of requirements lies in its ability to step up procluction rapiclly and in its ability to shift cluickly from one t1'pe of procluction to another as may be demarrded lty the emergency. In all, there are estin-rated to be f rorn 50,000 to 60,0@ sau'mills in the United States. Nlost of them are small mills, but they are the "safetl' r.alves" of the industry. Thev come into production u'hen the demand is high ; they drop out lvhen the demand is lou'.

It is extra c:rpacity and versatility that enables the lumber industry to reduce u,hat might be a program of austeritl' irr any emergency to one of mere belt tightening. And it is the addecl luxurv made possible by rvood that produces the difference betu'een a smooth-running, eflrcient enlergenc]: profJram and one fraught 'n ith frttstration and discomfort.

Take the matter of homes forn'arrvorkers and their families, for example. l-umber and plyrvood today are making possible the continuation of a vast construction llrogram t'hich, so far as materials are concerned, is limited onlv bv the availabilitl' of steel, aluminum. co1>per and other metals. And even so far as metals are concerned, Iumber and plyu,ood have reduced the drain on structural elements. The building industry realized that, pound for porrnd. timbe: can do as much r'vork as other building materials ; that. properly engineered, lumber can be superior on a cost-{or-cost comparison as \\re11.

In addition to u.ood for construction, t1.re civilian economy utilizes 1\'ood in hundreds of other u'avs. A check-list of the uses of u'ood in the average home, for example, reveals an astour.rding recorcl of our dependabilitv on n'ood and u.ood products. These have all'ays been available tcr the extcnt of their necessity, in war or peace.

Forest Service to Coop erate with Census Bureau in Lumber Production Survey

Berkeley, February 20-.A survey of lumber production and source of logs milled during 1951 in California is now being started by the California Forest and Range Experiment St-ation of the U. S. Forest Service, it was announced today by Stephen N. Wyckoff, Director.

This survey is conducted in cooperation with the U. S. Bureau of the Census. As the Census Bureau conducted a quarterlv survey of selected sample mills during 1951, the Experiment Station will canvass all the other mills in the state. The production data from all mills collected by both agencies will be pooled in the reports to be issued after :rll returns are in and tabulated.

The Bureau of the Census conducted the last complete survey of lumber production in the state in 1948 for the

year 1947. In the intervening years partial surveys based on sampling procedure have been made. Therefore, statistics based on full coverage should be welcomed by the lumber industry and all other agencies and individuals who have use for lumber production figures'

The summary statistics on lumber production and log source obtained in this survey will also provide basic data on sawlog output essential to the Forest Survey of California. The Forest Survey is part of a nation-wide study being made by the Forest Service to obtain and keep up-todate an inventory of timber resources and to get information on the rate at which our timber is growing, is being used, and is being destroyed by such enemies as fire and insects. The Forest Survey in California is conducted by the California Forest and Range Experiment Station with headquarters on the University of California campus in Berkeley.

Complcte Construction Of Custom Drying Plant

Leonard Wilkinson and Earl Hamilton have recently completed the construction of custom drying facilities in Montague, California, which is located 8 miles east 'of Yreka. Montague is accessible by modern highway and also located on the Southern Pacific Railroad.

Xfr. Hamilton and Mr. Wilkinson are operating under the name of Montague Dry Kiln Company and their address is P. O. Box 215, Yreka, California.

Present facilities include one Moore Cross-Circulation steam-heated double track kiln 66 ft. long, lift truck for handling green, dry or stickered packages, and a railroad siding.

Currently the company is constructing a shed over the loading area next to the spur and future plans call for dry sheds and additional kiln facilities as required.

Steam for the present kiln is produced by a low pressure automatic oil fired boiler using heavy oii'

The present Moore Cross-Circulation Kiln is of the double track type, holding approximately 70'M board feet of 5/4 lumber. Tracks at both ends of the kiln permit charges to be built up of packages ahead of the kiln and does not tie up the fork lift for any extended period of time when .hll,-r'ff"rT;Tlil"'r"l

plus full automatic control or heat and humidity are additional features that permit accurate control of drying conditions to. meet any desired condition with a minimum of labor.

THREE CONYEN'EN' TOCAT'ONS

BrooffuNoToN TUSflN BAKERSFIEID

It Was Close

Someone had opened one of these shiny new modern sandwich shops on a heavy-traffic corner of the highway, not far frbm an Indian reservation in Arizona. Curious members of the tribe drifted by, observing with keen interest this new eating place.

Finally one big buck decided to try the food being offered, so after some deliberation he ordered a sandwich.

When it came he bit deep into the neatly prepared iterrl then stopped and stared long and hard at the cleft he had made in the food. Finally he said to the waiter:

"You slice-um ham?"

, "Sure," said the waiter; "why?"

"You know," said the Indian solemnly i ,,you dam-near missum ham !"

Alohc

Oe

ft's more than just an easy word for casual goodby; ft's gayer than a greeting, and it's sadder than a sigh; It has the hurting poignancy, the pathos of a sob; It's sweeter than a youthful heart's exquisite joyous throb;

It's all the tender messages that words cannot convey; ft's tears unshed, and longing for a loved one gone auray; It's wel'come to Hawaii and it's lingering farewell; It's all the dear and silent things that lovers lips can tell;

It's woven into fower leis and old Hawaiian songs; It's frailer than a spider-web and strong as leather thongs; ft's {resh as dew on ginger blooms and older than the moon; It's in the little lullabys that native mothers croon; It's said a hundred different ways, in sadness and in joy; Aioha means "I love you." So f say "Aloha Oe."

Money

What money is, f know not. But concerning the lending, I know this: that if I lend not with it courage, sympathy and vision, I but burden a man already burdened with his own need.

Give, then, and forget. Or else lend heart and moneyaye, money and a gale of goodwill to blow it to good use.

(From "Log of Tros of Samothrace.")

A Mutual Situction

An inhabitant of a lonely isl'and off the coast of freland had a visitor, who said:

"I suppose that when the sea is very rough you get no news from the rest of the world."

."That's right," was the calm reply. "But the rest of the world is in the same fix. It gets no news from us."

-The Vagabond.

Some Explcncrtion

The shoemaker was explaining to a complaining customer the reason for the poor quality of his soles.

"All the good leather," he said, "is going into steaks."

Acts oI Kindness

The little acts of kindness, So easily out of mind; Those chances to be angels, Which everyone may findThey come in night and silenceEach chill, repreachful wraithWhen hope is faint and flagging, And a. blight has dropped on faith.

For life is all too short, dear, And sorrow is all too great; To suffer out great compassion That tarries until too late; And it's not the thing you do, deaq ft's the thing you leave undone, Which gives you a bit of heartache, At the setting of the sun.

-Margaret Sangster.

Cicero Wrote:

"Life would be utterly lifeless, as old Ennius expresses it, without a friend on whose kindness and fidelity one rdight confidently repose. Can there be a more real complacency indeed, than to lay open to another the most secret thoughts of one's heart, with the same confidence and security as if they were still concealed in his own?

"Would not the fruits of prosperity lose much of their relish were there none who equally rejoiced with the possessor in the satisfaction he received from them? And how difficult must it prove to bear up under the pressure of misfortunes, unsupported by a generous associate who more than equally divides their load."

He Cured Thct Too

"Forest Echoes" tells about a herb doctor who was passing the home of a well-to-do family and leaned over the fence to hail the yard man. He said:

"How's the mistress doin', Sam?"

"f ain't sure," was the reply. "I heard the doctor say this mornin' she was convalescent."

"Shucks ! Nuthin' to it," grunted the quack. "Why, I've cured convalescence in twenty-four hours."

Economic Outlook br 1952

N{ar.rville, N. J., Februarv 18-Tl-re economic outlook i.rr 1952 shoulcl follorv mrrch the sar.ne pattern as that for 19.51 u'herr pot'erfu1 inflationarr- forces tvere offset by the vast producing capacitl' of the country and hear.y saving by the lxrblic. L. X4. Cassidr-, chairmar.r of the board of JohnsN{lrnlille Corporation said todal'.

NIr. Cassidy, .lr.ith other companv executives, spoke at the opening of a training course for nearly 100 JohnsManville sales trainees helcl at the company's Research Cerrter here. The sales trainecs came from the Unitecl States anrl Carracla and from l-ondon ancl Tokyo.

"There l'ili still exist a strong gronnclsu-ell of inflation in 1952 because the rate of spending for clefense and foreign aid rvill increase this year," NIr. Classid,l. said. "This r-ear insteacl oI being essentiallr' a 'tooling rr1'r' period, defense goods n'ill porrr irom lrlarrts and bulging pavrolls rr-i11 clamor for civilian goods or-r l'hich to spend them.

"The hard core of rearmament-inflation lies in the billions of clollars of u'ages, salaries arrd profits paid out for the nrakin{. of cleferrse goods. These goods are not a\-ail:rble ior the civilian tnarkct. They c:rnnot absorb the buyirrg lton'er generatecl lry their production. Tn other t.orcls. the clcfense t.orker cannot buv the pl:ine or tank rvith the llrone\- he got for rnaking thcm. This monev t.ill. therefore, chase ancl compete for thc consumer goocls on the market, tending to lroost prices.

"But, as in 1951. orlr trenrcndous capacitr- to produce consumer goods acts lrs a pon erfrrl br:Lke on prices. This r-ear. hou'ever. there n'ill be less consunler hard goods produced than l:rst t-eltr. mainlv because of the short:tges in metals. Thcre l-ill be feu.er autorlobilcs. houses. refrigerators, and other products requiring metals.

"Thesc basic economic factors u'ill affect inclustry in varf ing rlegrees. Fronr an civer-:rll yisll.poirrt it appears that -lohns-Nlanvillc's sales r-olrrme rr'il1 continue to be high for the tluration of thc dcfcnsc econ()mv. Practicallr- er-errltroclrrct -f ohns-Xlanr,ille trrrns out in its tu-enty plants arrd threc rnines is csseutial for nrilitarrr rlse or for nccessarrcir.ilian recluirements. In this respect the companv is fortunalc because it has no problcm of convcrtine its production facilities for defense."

\{r. Cassi<1r,' urged thc sules tr:rir-rccs to rler-elo1> the homc moderrriz:rtior-t arrrl nt:tintenlLnce markct for ltrrilding .prorlucts t() ofiset thc restrictions in nerrr hontc corrstruction.

Flc cautionerl tl're saiesmen in training that there u'oulcl be "itn even grcater need for a verv aggressive sales effort aftel the defense program has run its course" if the com1t;rrry is to keep p;rce lvith its prr-rcluctiYe calracit-v.

The sales tr:rinees, u'ho n-ill spend from six to eight u'eeks :rt the Johns-Manville ltese:rrch Center and the companv's plar.rt nearbl', u'ill studv the tlevelopment of companv products throrrgh the research, pilot plant and conrmercial ltroduction phases. -A.ctual flelrl instruction in installation techrriqrres ancl application of Johns-\lanr-ille proclucts u'il1 alscr be a part oi the course.
