LOS ANGELES 14, CALIFORNIA, APRIL L, 1949

How Lrumber Lrooks Portland, Oregon, March 17-Douglas fir lumber output still reflects effects of the most severe winter in over half a century, according to Harris E. Smith, secretary West Coast Lumbermen's Association, who said February production totals lag behind the five year averages. Closure of many hundreds of small sawmills because of a shortage of logs accounted in part for the reduced cut, he said. February weekly production of 143,098,000 board feet was 92.6% of the 1943-1948 ayerages. "Reports from most sections of the fir region of Oregon and Washington," Smith stated, "indicate that logging will be resumed in substantial volume by April lst. It will be nip and tuck whether depleted cold decks and log inventories will last until spring logging gets under way. Deep snows have delayed logging camp openings several weeks beyond normal." February lumber shipments averaged 138,474,0W board feet weekly, up 13 million weekly over January, but shipments fell behind both orders and production for the period, Smith said. The weekly average of West Coast Lumber production in February was 143,098,000 board feet or 92.6/o of the 1943-1948 average. Orders averaged 160,695,000 board feet; Shipments 138,474,000 board feet. Weekly averages

for January were: Production l2l36,m board feet,

(78.6% of the 1943-1948 average) ; Orders 158,649,000 board

feet; Shipments 125,296,000 board feet. Eight weeks of. 1949 cumulative production 1,059,194,000 board feet; eight weeks of. 1948, 1,501,573,000 board feet;

eight weeks 1947,1,29L,695,000 board feet. Orders for eight weeks ol 1949 break-down as follows: F.all 852,667,0@ board feet. Truck 37,438,000 board feet. Domestic Cargo 188,873,000 board feet. Export 69,648,000 board feet. Local 68,794,000 board feet. The Industry's unfilled order file stood at 610,337,000 board feet at the end of February. Gross stocks at 939.954.000 board feet. Lumber shipments of.427 mills reporting to the National Lumber Trade Barometer, National Lumber Manufacturers Association, were 1.3 per cent above production for the week ended March 12, 1949. In the same week new orders of these mills were 5.7 per cent above production. Unfilled order files of the reporting mills amount to 37 per cent of (Continued on Page 58)

Spring has came, Winter has went, It was not did By accident; The birds have few As you have saw, And spring has came

To Arkansas. **{c

Yep, friends, there is spring in the air, and spring in the sunshine that streams through the broad windows as f type this, and I just can't fail to print for probably the umteenth time in these columns my favorite poem of spring one above.

-the

*rF*

Since time began-the poets and musicians have dedicated their finest talents to glamorizing "spring, spring, beautiful spring," but to my uncultured and untutored mind. nothing else compares with this spring in Arkansas poem. You may not agree with my taste-probably won't-which will only prove one thing, dear friend; and that is that f don't agree with you eith*er,*See?

But you give that Arkansas spring poem a fair chance, roll it over your tongue a few times, and the next thing

you know it will become automatic, and you may appreciate it like I do. The author of same is no doubt lost in the dark ages of antiquity, and I have never been able to credit him with this masterpiece, so I just salute that great and unrivaled author, Mr. Anonymous, without giving him a more specific name. * * * Dallas Lore Sharp is credited with saying that if he could teach his boys but one thing, and was barred from teaching them anything else, he would teach them poetry, "to strengthen their imagination, to chasten their sensibilities, to quicken and deepen their emotions, to give them their glorious mother-tongue and' the language of real life, and the significance of real things." *t* I like that thought. You may suggest that my favorite spring poem as printed above can hardly do the things for you that Mr. Sharp suggests. Probably not. But f am strictly a country boy in my poetic and musical likes and dislikes. Not long ago in this column I cast a verbal rock at highfalutin music and promptly got letters from good friends spanking me for same. Can I help being like I am? {rrF*

I guess I feel like the drunk that was refused admission to the theatre where a symphony orchestra was starting

a recital. The door man said to him: "You can't come in;

you're drunk!" And the fellow said, "Sure I'm drunk! If I wasn't drunk I wouldn't want to hear a symphony orchestra, would I ?'

*{.*

I like the story of the little boy whose parents took him to a very starchy musical event. As the orchestra leader frantically waved his baton a stout soprano sang, and the little boy pulled his father's sleeve, and said: "Papa, why is that man beating the fat lady with his stick?" The father said: "Shush ! He isn't beating her with that stick." And the boy insisted: "Then, Papa, why is the fat lady hollering?"

***

All poetry is not necessarily rhythmical or metrical. The most poetic thoughts are frequently found in prose. For instance, I read the other day in one of Tom Dreier's books, a quotation that went directly to my scrapbook, to hold a permanent place among the finest thoughts I have ever read. Katherine Tynan was writing about one John O'Mahoney, and she said,: "He knew to the full the EXQUISITENESS OF GMNG. One always knew where he was by the milestones of his gifts." fsn't that beautiful? "The exquisiteness of giving !" Many people give. Most of them do it clumsily. Few do it exquisitely. There is a great thought there. * * * Our new Secretary of State, Dean Acheson, is some better-than-fair prose-poetry juggler, himself. At a farewell Washington dinner given to the retiring Secretary, George C. Marshall, Acheson said, in part: "f am but a lieutenant who continues to await his captain's voice of command and comfort-but who hears only the thin echo of his own words.',

{. {€

And I must print again, lest you forget, a most beautiful and poetic line that was told me by a Chinese man a few months back. "May your shadow always fall in pleasant places." I have used it more times than anything else I have heard or read in a score of years. I find myself add-

ing it as a postscript to all my personal and friendly letters. f doubt if the sentiment entailed was ever so well

wordedbefore.

* * *

I shall close the poetic part of this piece by quoting the very interesting words of Samuel Butler, who said: "Heaven is the work of the best and kindest men and women. Hell is the work of prigs, pedants, and professional truthtellers. The world is an attempt to make the best of both." **{.

often sticks interestingly worded ads in the window. The last one I saw read: "Rib Steaks, with French Fries, 85 cents, Tough to Beat." And another said: "How is your liver? Ours is 65 cents."* * * Wm. Shakespeare would have been a marvelous advertising writer had he lived in this advertising age. That fact is demonstrated in thousands of places in his writings. For instance, witness this magnificent bit of sales copy from "The 'Winter's Tale": Lawn as white as driven snow, Cypress black as e'er the crow, Gloves as sweet as damask roses, Masks for faces and for noses; Bugle-Bracelet, necklace amber, Perfume for a lady's chamber; Golden coifs and stomachers, For my lads to give their dears; Pins and poking-sticks of steel, What maids lack from head to heet; Come buy of nre; come, come buy, come buy, Buy lads, or else your lasses cry;

comebuY'

* *

And, speaking of advertising, and of spring, and of both,

let us consider some signs of spring now seen about us, that have been missing for a long list of years. For instance, several times in the last two weeks I have been called to the phone to talk to automobile salesmen who wanted to sell me cars. What a change ! They want to

take me for a demonstration ride, just like in the old days. Immediate delivery? Sure! List price? Yes, indeed! Compulsory extras like for the last several years? Not a thing; they'll strip a car for you if you prefer it that way. No black market. No grey market. Just old timey buying and selling on top of the table. Well, well ! Whether we are in the market or not, that is a change to be thankful for. It came sooner than the most optimistic predicted, just as all such changes come.

* * *

About the same thing happened a couple of months ago

to Plywood. For a succession of years the scarcest and most diffiiult building material to get, almost over-night Plywood became plentiful. Today builders can get all the Plywood they want, anywhere they want it. That very fact is certainly helping create a demand for building. For Plywood has come to play a most vital part in the building drama in this country, and inability to get it slowed down building and repairing very definitely for a long time. Now you can get it, and it's better than it ever was in quality and usefulness, for they learned much under the pressure of war about making gualitl* products for varied uses. Plywood for several years was dragged down by the worst "grey market" known to industry. The "rider of the pale horse" in Revelations was little more frightening than the grey market that rode the Plywood industry for so long. Generous supply of materials liter?lly destroyed that monster, and today it is no more. Plywood is being marketed in the good old-fashioned way again, and there is a plentiful supply for all. New and improved Plywood plants

are coming into production right along, so the prospective builder and user can be absolutely assured of a plentiful supply "from now on." With a world still to be rebuilt as the wherewithal develops, this is a hopeful and helpful sign. {.

As a matter of fact, the same can now be said of .the lumber supply, both soft and hardwoods. While the lumber markets have been watched with much interest and a little apprehension during the last several months, the calm fact is that for the first time in sevbral years there is now a generous supply of lumber for general building. And that is a very healthful sign. Certainly it is detrimental to the building industry not to be assured of a plentiful sup ply of raw materials; and that's the fix the industry has been in for a number of years. Today, from coast to coast, there is plenty of good lumber available for all lumber users and uses. That this fact and condition will enhance building operations this spring and summer, there can be no doubt' * :r. *

The settling down that has come to lumber generally this past winter need not be interpreted as meaning any serious hurt to the industry. ft may, in fact, be very much for the best. The switch from a completely seller's mar. ket to a more normal arrangement of purchase and sale, certainly is a bettermcnt. If no drastic sag comes to our national economy in general, the lumber business should have a very prosperous 1949. As I have said in these coiumns of late, every businessman views with alarm what goes on in Washington today. Looks like the only danger to our present set-up is from that direction. There is plenty of building to be done, and plenty of cash and credit to do it with. If the spending spree in Washington should prove less drastic than was threatened a couple of months ago, and the socialistic legislative drive could in some fashion be headed off, we could look with much certainty to the rest of this year. * * * The Wall Street Journal under date of March 16th, editorially remarked: "As signs of a business readjustment become more numerous, belief spreads that the government

simply must prevent it from becoming a real depression."

Wouldn't it be quicker and smarter if the government would just quit doing the things that are causing this "readjustment?" For as far as f can see, the whole threat comes from Washington.

Kcyser Specrks to Azuscr Kiwcrnians Arthur A. Kayser, West Coast Lumbermen's Association representative, spoke to the Kiwanis Club of Azusa recently on the lumber industry's opposition to proposed government public housing projects. He was introducetl by Stewart Butt of Butt Lumber Company. "Government building would not do anything that private enterprise can't and won't do in the building trades," Kayser said, "And private industry can do it cheaper." He also predicted that lumber prices would remain at or near the present level throughout this year.

Coast Kiln & Lumber Co. Moves To New Location

Los Angeles Plywood Firm Sells Frost Brand Flooring

Coast Kiln & Lumber Co. moved to 432O Exchange Avenue in Vernon the first week in March where they have just completed the first in a series of new furnace type kilns with full automatic controls, high velocity circula'tion and a design that permits hyster loading. This kiln will take approximately 90,000 feet at one charge and will be used primarily for kiln drying redwood, Douglas fir and Philippine mahogany in transit from Northern California, San Francisco and Los Angeles harbor.

The new kiln takes lengths up to 34 feet. New sticking equipment has been ordered, according to H. R. Geiserrheyner, superintendent of the plant. Mr. Geisenheyner has just completed a refresher course in kiln operation conducted by the Forest Products Laboratory at Los Angeles. He explains that Coast Kiln intends to do nothing but first class work and will furnish a certificate of dryness and straightness on all lumber passing through the kilns.

Padua Plywood, Inc., 6107 South Central Avenue, Los Angeles, started in the wholesale hardwood flooring business last Novem'ber. They handle Frost Brand hardwood flooring in oak, pecan, and ash.

This company has been in the wholesale plywood business for the past two years, handling Douglas fir, Ponderosa pine, and cedar plywood. L. E. Wiggins is manager.

L. H. McBride, in charge of the flooring department, was formerly associated with W. F. Morse Lumber Co., El Monte, Calif.

CAI,IFORNIA TUIIIBER'{ERCHANT

Growing American Soltwoods In Australia (From "Timber News") Lumber authorities of southern Austrailian states, are looking to an American tree to make good the deficiencies of native softwoods in their forests. They have found the quickest solution to their softwoods problem in the Monterey pine of California-pinus radiata-one of the fastest growing softwood trees in the world. In the states of Victoria and South Australia, the forestry authorities, remembering the difficulties that arose from the interruption of softwood imports during the war, are pushing ahead with plans for building up 360,000 acres of permanent pinus radiata plantations in state-owned forests to ensure a constant local supply of softwood. Pinus radiata is not a newcomer to Australia, but the aggregate area carrying this useful tree--for many years erroneously called in Australia the Remarkable Pine, or pinus insignis-is to be nearly trebled as a start. It took the wartime shortage to overcome a prejudice that had developed among Australian timber users against locally grown softwoods. This originated from the fact that much of the earlier planting of softwoods was for ornamental purposes, or to provide wind-breaks, rather than for timber production, with the result that the timber was knotty and poor in quality. Due to the lack of enthusiasm of users, the annual softwoods planting pro-

gram of the Forests Commission of Victoria was limited to a maximum of 5,000 trees and the State was importing 139,000,000 super feet of softwoods.a year prewar. Today only 50,000 acres carry softwoods, but the work of the Commission has proved that the climatic and soil conditions of the southe?stern region of the continent are generally more favorable for the development of pinus radiata plantations than those of more northerly regions. As the trade was not greatly interested in local softwoods, the Commission itself undertook the responsibility of pioneering milling and seasoning operations, and the industry is now established on a sound commercial basis. State-owned plantations have yielded annually an average of 1.5,000,000 super feet in Victoria over the past five years, almost entirely in the form of thinnings. In the peak year during the war, 45,000,000 super feet were produced, and used for building matgrials, furniture, paper pulp, plywood, match sticks, and munitions. As the state is now being reached at which fully matured forests are becoming available for milling, a substantial increase in the annual yield will take place. The Forests Commission of Victoria has set 250,000 acres of softwoods as its target, the scheme to cost 5,300,000 pounds in the first ten years. It intends to plant 10,000

acres a year. While some of the new acreage will be made

up by extensions of existing plantations, an important aspect of the scheme will be the reclamation of 100,000 acres of abandoned deforested farming country in the eastern

half of the State. Silvicultural operations during the development of the plantations will provide interim yields of

timber until the trees reach maturity in about 30 years. When clear felling begins, the plantations will be restocked and maintained in perpetuity. South Australia's Woods and Forests Department, which controls 267,m acres of forests and the larger sawmills, is expanding its plantations of pinus radiata in the southeastern corner of the State, to a minimum of 100p00 acres.

This State was early on the job to repair the damage caused by misguided methods of the first settlers who laid

waste to the already limited areas of forest to make way for farms and vineyards. Its forests today yield @,0m,000 super feet a year. It also leads in the development of its softwood plantations. The pinus radiata has flourished remarkably on semi-swamp land in the southeast, where already 80,000 acres of once useless country are now profitably carrying plantations.

In this leading fruit and vine growing region, pinus radiata has proved of immense value for the manufacture of packing cases, and it was first milled for this purpose. The first two big permanent mills were opened in the southeastern softwoods plantations in the 1930's, at Mt. Burr and Nangwarry. They milled n% million super feet in 1945, chiefly for flooring, weatherboards, match wood, and fruit cases. Most of the citrus and dried fruit cases usecl in South Australia were made in the Government mills. Mt. Burr mill, one of the most up-to-date in Australia, is equipped with a Scandinavian log gangsaw, and operates basically as a board mill. It has a battery of 14 modern seasoning kilns and three reconditioning chambers. New Betqil Lumber Yard In Vcrn Nuys

M and M's introduction of redwood plywood follows a four-year experimentation period' By developing special dryers at the Eureka plant the concern is able to quickly reduce moisture content to only 2 per cent. It is made by the hot press process using phenol-formaldehyde resin to bond the plys, and is being produced in all standard plywood dimensions. Specially designed lathe equipment has also been installed there for peeling the huge logs.

Declining Forests Call for Action, Says Federal Report Washington, D. C., February 2l-The Forest Service in the U. S. Department oi Agriculture today issued a report bringing together in concise form the over-all findings of the nation-wide forest reappraisal, for the first time since field work was completed in 1946. The report outlines the principal federal measures which the Forest Service holds "necessary to assure ample timber supplies for the future" and "to build up and maintain the forest resources so as to insure their maximum contribution to lasting prosperily for our country." The report is entitled "Forests and National Prosperity," USDA Miscellaneous Publication No. 668.

After presenting data on forest land and timber resources, and how they are being managed, the report discusses the raw material supply and wood waste problems of the major forest industries. Watershed, range, recreational and wildlife uses and services are considered in relation to timber supply and forest management. Another section is devoted to forest protection from fire, insects and disease, and the report concludes with a discussion of how

forest ownership affects the outlook for improvement in the nation's forest situation. Warning that "if the United States is to maintain a place of economic leadership in the world of tomorrow, it carr ill afiord to temporize with its forests," the report declares

not only that the sawtimber supply is declining under the impact of an annual cut which together with natural losses is 50 per cent greater than current annual growth but alscr that its quality is deteriorating. At the same time, the summary says, indications are that the nation's long-range potential timber requirement is considerably greater than the present annual cut, especially if prospective new uses for wood, export and a back-log' for national security are taken into account. These overall needs include dependable timber supplies sufficient "to sustain and expand the supply of consumer goods and employment in the wood industry" to provide for national security, and "to ,contribute to international peace and wellbeing" through helping meet world timber needs in time

of shortage. Setting a long-range, flexible goal, the report suggests that if these needs are to be met the country should aim to grow from 18 to 20 billion cubic feet of all timber, including from 65 to 72 billion board feet of sawtimber, a year. At present annual growth is put at 13 billion cubic feet of all timber, including 35 billion board feet of sawtimber. However, the report states that even if good forest

protection, management, and practices were generally appti"a to American forests within the next few years it would still take several decades before this growth goal could be achieved. Tomorrow's wood supply is in the forest trees growing today, but for the nation as a whole, according to the report, the forest growing stock is "below par in quantity,

quality and distribution," while 164 million acres of the country's commercial forest area, or 35 per cent, is ,,deforested or has less than 40 per cent of full stocking.,' And. the further the long-time depletion which produced this condition is allowed to go unchecked the more difficult and costly becomes the job of putting the forest resource in sh4pe to meet the nation's need. The report recognizes substantial progress in forestry, both public and private, in recent years. There is ample evidence, especially in the South and Pacific Northwest, where timber grows rapidly, that forestry pays and is good business. Throughout the country a growing number of owners are putting their lands under good forest management. The best showing is reported to be by the lumber

and pulp companies which together own lS/o of the commercial forest land in private ownership. Small holdings, which comprise three-fourths of the private forest land are said to be "the toughest problem.', More vigorous action, concludes the report, is needed to get good forestry generally applied. The action proposed requires the cooperation of federal, state, and local governments, private owners and interested agencies. It falls into three parts, (1) public aids to private forest landowners, especially small owners; (Z) pubfic control of cutting practices on private land sufficient to stop forest destruction and keep the land reasonably productive; and (3) expansion and intensified management of the national forests.

Art Penberthy, head of the West Coast Steamship Co., and partner in Tacoma Lumber Sales, with headquarters in the Petroleum Building, Los Angeles, recently organized a unique birthday celebration for himself and his three brothers in the form of a voyage to La Paz, capital of the Southern Division of Lower California. This was no ordinary celebration for three of the Penberthy brothers, Paul, Art, and Francisco all had their birthdays on February 25, but all born in different years' With the fourth brother, Cornelius (Penny), five friends, and eight of a crew the party left Los Angeles Harbor on February 11 and returned February 25 af.ter a 15-day cruise. The ship is the former Coast Guard cutter Pulaski, veteran of Pacific rescue service, which Mr. Penberthy purchased a year ago, and had reconditioned into an oceangoing tug. This was its shake-down cruise. It is owned and operated by the West Coast Steamship Co. It is a steel craft, powered by 1000 H. P. twin diesel engines, and it will be used for towing medium landing ships which have been converted into lumber barges.

How to set up and operate a cost accounting system for the logging and lumber manufacturing industry is told in "Handbook of Cost Accounting Methods" just released by D. Van Nostrand Company. The log and lumber chapter was prepared by Harris E. Smith, one of the outstanding lumber accountants of the country. It covers cost accounting problems for all lumber sections of the nation, and is as valuable for small loggers and lumber firms as for the largest lumber manufacturers. In addition to the chapter on logging and lumber cost accounting the book contains chapters bearing directly on sixty other businesses, as well as chapters on the present day problems of cost accounting. Harris E. Smith is secretary of the Wedt Coast Lumbermen's Association and for 20 years has held various official positions with the lumber trade group. He is a Certified Public Accountant and licensed to practice in both Washington and Oregon. He was secretary of the committee that developed the uniform accounting system that is published by the West Coast Lumbermen's Association and widely used in the Douglas fir region. Of all treated timber products in 1947,92%% were treated with creosote or mixtures of creosote with other materials.

Redwood Log House On Five-Year Tour

Ot The United States

The redwood log house shown in the picture is now ort a tour of the United States in charge of its owner, Keith Straughan, of Eureka, Calif., who purchased the log from Hammond Lumber Company. The tree from which the log was taken contained more than 74,000 board feet of redwood lumber, and measured9' 4" in diameter at a point 65 feet from the ground. The tree was estimated to be 1900 years old.

Starting on July 4, 1948, Straughan and his son-in-lau', William Guidici, hollowed out the big log with augers and adzes,leaving a shell of about six inches of wood, and the bark in its original condition. By late October they had built within one end of the log a complete kitchen witir electric stove, refrigerator, sink, kitchen cabinets, and table; in the mid-section a living room, with built, in dav-

enport, corner seats, and burl top table; and in the opposite end a bedroom with built-in bunk type beds. The 1og house is mounted on a Reliance trailer, and is hauled by a new semi-type G.M.C. truck. Straughan and his family, consisting of his mother, wife, son, two daughters, and Guidici, after completion of the painting and finishing, set out on Thanksgiving Day, 1948, on a five-year tour of the country. The tour will be financed by a small admission fee for going through the log house, and by the sale of redwood burl novelties. In addi tion Mr. Staughan expects to lecture on the redwoods and the scenic attractions of the Redwood Empire before schools, service clubs, and public bodies in all the cities he visits.

Bis Lumber Dock for Crescent City

Crescent City, March 15-The Crescent City harbor commission tonight informally approved the A. C. Dutton

Lumber Corp. plan to build a $250,000 lumber and oil wharf and fishboat marina on their newly purchased property between Twohy street and the Shell Oil company property. T. W. Tweedle and Herbert Buckley, vicepresidents of the Dutton Lumber Corp', and their local attorney, William W. Steer, met with the commission tonight.

QUATITY bui ldi ng

Allen Lahman, chaiiman of the harbor commission, stated that he will call a special meeting oI the commission

mcrteriol cosr s Yo u

as soon as legal notice can be given' At that time the commission will pass a resolution officially approving the wharf

project.

The Dutton Lumber corporation will apply for permits from the U. S. Army Engineers and the California State Lands Commissions immediately, permits being handled by their engineer, Col. Harry S' Pond. This proposed wharf will consist of 1000 feet of solid rock causeway with a 30-foot concrete road on top and 700 feet of reinforci:d piling also 30 feet wide. It v/ill divide into two fingers 600 feet long with space between for tying up barges. On the south side of the wharf, 70 to 100 finger slips will be built to accommodate local commercial fishing boats. Space will also be allowed for three or four fish-buying concerns. A large submarine oil pipeline to be used by the Shell Oil company will be on the north side of the wharf. It will be used to dump barge bulk oil into short tanks' Construction is to begin in about 60 days.

The Dutton Lumber corporation will buy lumber, both fir and redwood, from all operating concerns in Del Norte county. It will assemble and stock-pile the lumber on the property near its wharf and then will barge it to a deepwater port. The lumber will then be transferred to cargo steamers that will take it through the Panama Canal to New York City. Each vessel holds from 7,000,000 to 8,000,000 feet of lumber. Tugs and barges are owned by the company and the corporation plans to build a planing and processing mill on the Del Norte proPertY.

Los Angeles City Council Votes To Modify Building Code Ordinance Affecting Use o[ Treated Lumber At a meeting of the Los Angeles City Council on March 10 action was taken to modify the building code requirements afiecting the use of treated lumber by a vote of 13 to 1, and the City Attorney was instructed to prepare an ordinance which would delete certain provisions of section

91.31U of the code.

ff enacted into law, the new ordinance will modify the requirement oT using treated lumber for underpinning. It does not alter the requirement for treating lumber, or Foundation Grade Redwood, for mudsills and pier caps. The present requirement of FHA for treated girders and sills if within 18" of the inside grade remains unchanged. J. D. McCune, manager of the lumber department, J. H. Baxter & Co., Los Angeles, appeared as a speaker before the Council. He said: "It is true other cities do not have a similar ordinance but they do not have the problem Los Angeles has. Records of one termite company show they made 16,000 inspections from 1934 to !941. The company found 11,458 cases of decay and termite damage which cost an average of $136 each to repair." A. E. Ferguson, Western manager for the American Lumber & Treating Co., Los Angeles, also made a statement before the Council, saying: "A serious misunderstanding exists as to the cost of protecting the underpinning of the average-sized, five-room house. Estimates made in the testimony at various times have ranged up to $200 per house. fn truth, $90 will pay for treatment of nearly 300O square feet of floor area-a $30,000 house. The average citizens'-the vsfslxns'-interest is not in mansions of that class-it is the modest homes of perhaps 1,000 square foot area. The tcost of adding structural soundness through treated underpinning in such a home is approximately $34 ! About 4l a square foot. Not six or ten, but four cents a foot !" Attorney John W. Preston, representing West Oregon Lumber Co., declared that adequate hearings had not been given to the proposal to remove the ordinance and asked for additional time.

At a hearing of the Building and Safety Committee of

the City Council on March 2, Mr. Preston read a letter from John C. Austin, prominent Los Angeles architect, in which he said: "As most of the buildings covered by the above section are built for sale, and as the treatment cost is so small, it is my opinion that the ordinance should remain. "It is very disconcerting to find that when a new building shows signs of rot or termite infestation and that you, the owner, are faced with a heavy bill Tor tearing out the infected areas and then installing new material. The treatment of timber as covered by the ordinance is a cheap insurance against unexpected defects of the kind suggested by the ordinance." Attorney Preston also read a letter from Emanuel Fritz, Forestry Department, IJniversity of California at Berkeley, in which he stated: "Preservative treatment of the substructures is very highly desirable and gives better guarantee against future losses by termites." C. W. Ott, manager, Treating Division, West Oregon Lumber Company, read a statement at the hearing which he summarized as follows: "\Me recommend against any weakening of the code requirements for protected wood; and we favor strengthening those requirements, for the following reasons: "(a) Subterranean termites are active in this area. "(b) Subterranean termites will bypass intervening resistance material to reach edible wood; therefore, the entire first floor should be an unbroken shield against them. "(c) The average home buyer cannot be expected to protect himself intelligently; he must look to the building code for protection against preventable loss. "(d) To make the proposed change because of the resulting small saving in purchase price would be 'penny wise and pound foolish'; the first repair job would more than outweigh the initial saving." The provision in the code regarding treated lumber has been in effect for fifteen years, and the Council's action

The box factory and other departments have been running but the sawmill had been closed for several weeks. All departments are now in full operation with the exception of the logging, and this may be delayed for some time because of the condition of the roads in the woods. There is still a considerable amount of snow on the logging roads. It is possible that full scale logging operations will not be resumed for two months or more.

An eighth edition of the Commercial Standard for Douglas Fir Plywood which has been in effect since November l, 1948, has just bedn issued, according to an announcement by the Commodity Standards Division of the National Bureau of Standards. This new edition is in an improved form, in that it cov-

Announcement is made by, Back Panel Company, Los Angeles, that they have been appointed sole distributors for the new embossed plywood, Venetex, Tor California, Arizona, and Nevada. They have also been made factory representatives for' Venetex in most of the other 45 states. Ted Back, general manager of Back Panel Company, irr speaking of the new paneling, said: "We consider this embossed plywood an outstanding innovation, and we feel certain it will have wide acceptance. The embossing process can be used on any species of hardwood or softwood plywood, on softwood and hardwood lumber, on solid core doors, and in fact on any wood product up to three inches thick. It can also be used on synthetic wall boards." Back Panel Company's warehouse and office are located at 310-314 East 32nd Street, Los Angeles 11, Calif. Tele-

ers the four basic standard grades of veneer, namely, grades

"Ar" "Br" "Cr" and "Dr" and then the plywood grades as made up from these veneers are covered by simplified tables. The present edition covers detail requirements for six grades of Exterior type, and seven grades of fnterior type plywood. Two new grades have been introduced in both the Ihterior and Exterior types. These grades are A-B, Int.; B-D, Int.; A-B, Ext. and B-C, Ext. These grades have been made possible by the introduction of the B quality veneer which has a solid surface. In most grades Douglas fir plywood is produced in several stock sizes including widths from 30" to 48" and lengths from 60' to 144" for convenient, economical use in meeting specific application needs. The bondage requirements for the Exterior type have been made more severe, thus assuring greater durability of the plywood for permanent outdoor use.
