How Lrumber Lrooks Portlancl, Oregon, \Iarch l2-Orders for Douglas fir lunrber for trro months of 1953 have fallen behind demand for the sarne period last year, according to Harris E. Smith, secretary of West Coast Lumbermen's Association.

Shipments for the same period are also running behind, the lumber executive stated. Mills of the fir region received orders for 1,712,340,000 board feet during January and Februar)', about 25 rnillion feet short of the same period in 1952.

The sanre mills shipped 1,628,589,000 board feet, a drop off of about 20 million feet.

Smith said the rail shipping mills appear to have lost about 130 rnillion feet in orders this year over 1952 for the first trvo rnonths. Export'dernand and Atlantic coast cargo business rnade up soure of the difference, he said.

The rveekly average of West Coast Lumber production in February r,vas 211,686,000 b.f. or lll5% of the 1948-1952 average. Crders averaged 208,671,000 b.f.; shipments 202,407,000 b.f. \Veekly averages for Januarv rvere: Production 195, 584,000 b.l.; 103.0/o of the 1948-1952 average; orders 199.467,000 b.f.; shipments 186,128,000 b.f.

Two rnonths of 1953 cumulative production 1,707,315,000 b.f.; truo months of 1952, 1,649,129,000 l.f.; trvo months of r95r, r,724,087,000 b.f.

Orders for tlvo months of 1953 brealidorvn as follorvs: Rail and truck 1,152,432,000 b.f.; domestic cargo 388,923,000 b.f. ; export 107,025,000 b.f. ; local 63,960,000 b.f.

The inrlustrv's unfilled orcler file stoocl at 903,896.000 b.f. at

the end of February;gross stocks at 1,076,345,000 b.f.

The \\'estern Pine Association for the rveek ended \Iarch 1+, 113 mills reporting, gave orders as 70,472,NO feet, ship rnents 66,929,000 feet, and production 6{,532,000 feet.

For the vear to date, orders are 8/" ahead of the same periocl last 1'ear; shipments are up 6/c, and production is up 18/o.

Price Controls End Washington, D.C., March l7-Price controls are ended.

OPS Director Joseph H. Freehill announced the lifting of all remaining price ceilings.

In Amendment 1 to General Overriding Regulation 44, OPS exempted from price control all sales of all commodities and services. The exemption is applicable in the Continental United States, in the Territories and possessions and in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

This action is the seventh and final step in compliance with the President's direction for orderly termination of price controls.

Previously, over a period of several weeks belinning February 6, 1953, OPS had issued orders gradually removing from price corrtrol a wide range of commodities and services. Oo March 12, the agency issued General Overriding Regulation 44, which removed price control from all commodities and services except a limited number of items in the chemical and industrial materials field.

Commodities remaining under price control before action included:

In the chemical field, sulfur, sulfuric acid, oleum and sulfur trioxide.

In the industrial materials field, iron and steel mill products, pig iron, ferro alloys, beryllium master alloys, beryllium oxide and beryllium mill products; monel, inconel and nickel primary shapes including anodes; monel, inconel and nickel

The Est-O-Square Every now and then something comes along which proves again there are a few things "new under the sun." The process of estimating a bill of material and labor required to build a new building has always been a relatively long and exacting operation. A casual glance at the wide variations in bids submitted by several contractors on a single job will show the amount of error which seems to be inherent in the process

of estimating.

Elsewhere in this issue will be found an advertisement announcing the first of a series of new tools designed not only to reduce error, but also to speed up the work of estimating.

These were designed by W. I. "Buzz" Poulter 1'ears ago for

mill products and nickel base alloys and mill products; columbium, tantalum ; molyMenum; steel shipping containers; metal cans ; fabricated.structural steel, miscellaneous and ornamental iron, and vessel shop products for field assembly and erection ; concrete reinforcement bars and materials; machine tools; and cutting used in or with machine tools.

The annual sales volume at the producer or m:rnufacturer level of the commodities removed from price control by action is approximately $15.6 billion.

In addition to setting aside all remaining ceiling price regulations, the decontrol order also has the effect of terminating the voluntary agreements most steel producers entered into with OPS covering price controls on their products.

OPS officials emphasized that this order has no effect on standing .requirements calling for the preservation of records of past transactions for specified periods.

Business firms need not make or keep records on future transactions but must keep available for inspection whatever records were required by the regulations under which they formerly operated. April 30, 1955, has been specified as the latest date beyond which records need not be retained.

The period of retention may be shorter for certain businesses and certain records.

For detailed information on records-preservation requirements, business men are advised to consult the regulations which have been covering them. his own use, but only now are they being made.available to others. They should be good for Buzz Poulter has been known to i great many of us as a retail lumberman and general building contractor for twenty-five years or more. He says it is just as easy to be right in quantity estimating as to be wrong, but there is quite a difference in the result.

Humboldt County Visitors Don Philips, Sr. and his son, I-arry Philips, I-awrencePhilips Lumber Co., Beverly Hills, spent two weeks in Humboldt County on a combined business and pleasure trip. rr\Ihile there they made their headquarters at IUr. Philips' summer home at Redrvay. Their wives accompanied them on the trip.

They returned fo l-os Angeles on April l.

..HOW MUCH DID YOU MAKE?

HOW MUCH DID YOU SPEND? HOW MUCH YOU GOT LEFT? SEND rT IN?"

* *

The Houston Post quotes a union ironworker as saying

that he favors the "short-short income tax form," to be found above, :F :r * Millions of remarks concerning Joe Stalin and his death have been uttered and printed, but the one that takes first

place in our opinion is also from the Houston post and credited to a Baptist preacher, Dr. Westmorland, who said, the day after Joe died: "I'll bet he was surpised when he woke up THIS morning."

Untit Stalin came along, Genghis Khan had long been pointed out as the impersonation of the Devil on earth; the most heartless and merciless of men. Yet comlnred to Joe, Genghis Khan was a kindly and benevolent creature. The Khan killed his thousands. Stalin his "'illions.

*+*

lluman words cian never be uttered nor human phrascs arranged that can begin to describc the unbelievablc hunan horror who was Joe Stdin. The oft repcatd guestion "will his successor be better or worse than Stdin?" is easily answered. No man could possibly be more of a demon tban the late dictator. Any change must be for the better. The fact that the new gang immediately deposed Vishinsky, seems to be a mark in their favor.

+*t

:1.**

In a wonderful word picture of Stalin published in his syndicated column on March gth, George E. Sokols\z uses one unforgettable phrase to describe the dictator. He said I "stalin's fanatical eyes rvere unforgettable."

*{.*

The Baptist preacher's remark about Stdin, quoted above, could be used as a text for a whole volume about Joe, who rose from a position of minor importance in the

Communist party to the very top, and murdered most of his important superiors on the way up.

***

Yes, it must indeed have surprised him when he woke the next morning, in that place, wherever it is, that human monsters go after death. He had caused the death, the torture, of more men, \pomen, and children than any other man in human history. He was an agony specialist, and employed as his right hand men only those trained in the inflicting of pain on other humans. {.{<*

Vishinsky was his chosen assistant, and the Vishinsky type of man, \ /as the type he liked best. Vishinsky is a . ghoul, a heartless bloodsucker who lost his job the minute Stalin died. Stalin not only caused the death of the multiplied thousands of individual cases who were wiped out during his regime, but also the deaths of many millions of Russians whom he deliberately allowed to die, and ofiered no help.

,< *

:F

The massacre of some ten thousand Polish officers in a forest in World War Two, was a perfect sample of the 'pity, Stalin ferocity. In the man there was no nor any semblance of it. Human life to him was as cheap as the life of red ants in a Russian anthill. Mercy was a thing entirely foreign to his understanding.

The men who tore their victims to pieces with red hot pinchers during the Spanish Inquisition, and forced their families to witness the horror, were of the sane brand as Stalin. The difference is that they were retailcrs, Joc a wholesaler.

+f*

Discussions following the death of Stalin, brought out innumerable impressive remarks and opinions. One of thc best that carne our way was told us by a doctor friend- Hc has a patient who is a Displaced Persorl a refugee from behind the iron curtain. The doctor asked this European what he thought would be the effect of Stalin's deatt on Russia, on the world, and on the United States? The man

looked thoughtful a minute, then answered: "f can't say, doctor; you see, Stalin never died before."

+**

\Me can't help'wondering what took pl,ace in the lower left-hand corner of hell the day Stalin got thcre: what he and Satan said to one another on tbat monentous occasion?

Did Satan, do you reckon, congratulate Joc for the good work he had done on earth, such as strangling godliness, and humanity, and human decency cfrerever hc found it?

Such work as fighting Christianity and dl other decent religions, closing churches, torturing 6fl lrilling tbe pulpiteers of dl religions, and striving with sword and dagger to erase all goodly things from the hearts and minds of men?

wonder how Stalin r";;;ong in hclr with his old gang? Some of ttem, like Lenin, would probably be his friends, and sit with him on the hot coals and commune with Marx on old times, and on tte progress being made toward the destruction of dl decent governments on earth.

Others, like Trotzky, would probably chasc old Joc rith forked pitchforks, seeking revenge for wrongs on carth.

(No need to doubt that dl the gang from Marx right up to now are in hell, assuming that thpre is such a place.) Unlike in the Kremlin, Joe would find himself in hell without guards or secret police to protect him, and he would be on his own. Looks like Joe would not be too happy in hell.

***

*+t

In spite of the publicly expressed opinion several yBars

t;.

Shakespeare said: "The evil that mcrr do live after thcm, the good is oft interred with thcir bones." That's bad" If the evil that Joe did lives after hi-, there might be enough of it to poison the very air. And as for intcrring the good with his bones, that would bc a light job in Joe's case.

No good.

ago of a certain distinguished thinker and philosopher who said "Joe is a decent fellow," and also "I like Joe," the civilized world is of but one opinion about him. He was the monster of all monsters, the ideal of the pigs who would eat the people if they had the chance. If there was good of -any sort in the man, that fact has never leaked out. He was too foul for heaven, and unfit for hell.

Having thus expressed in some smdl part thc adrniration we feel for the late departed Unclc Joc Stalin, we shall cait aside the vitriol viat and hrrn to morc pleasant thin$" When Adlai Stevenson was a reccnt visitor with Prcsidcnt Ike in the White ffouse, he is said to have scnt a postcard to a friend in Chicago, which read: "Having a wonderful time.

Wish I were here."

Oakland Hoo-Hoo Club Mceting The Saint Patrick's Day party given by Hoo-Hoo Club No. 39 at the Claremont Hotel the evening oi Monday, March 16, had the flavor of the real thing through the presence of Dennis B. O'Sullivan, Irish Vice-Consul at San Francisco. Interiupting t*re festivities for a short talk, Mr. O'Sullivan told a few Irish stories in genuine Irish brogue. He spoke briefly on the progress and social changes which were taking place

in Ireland.

Tommy Tomlinson displayed his talents at the piano, accompanying the singers "Nick" Nicholson, John Mullins, Chris Sechrist and Joe Pepetone in their rendering of such Irish songs as "My Wild Irish Rose" and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling." The rafile was conducted by Herb Farrell, and some of the lucky ones took a ham home. As if to celebrate the last day in which income taxes could be paid, everybody present without a green tie had to pay a fine of one dollar. Lu Green, who not only had a green tie but the name of Green, was given a dollar.

Among the visitors were Charlie Bird and Bob Forgie of Stockton; Joe Rogers of Salinas and Professor Emanuel Fritz of Berkeley. Herb Farrell, as chairman for the evening, deserves a good deal of credit for a very successful affair. Ev I-ewis contributed the table decoration, a cardboard cutout of a stovepipe hat and a shamrock.

At the February 3 meeting of the Pacific Northwest Section, Forest Products Research Society, at Tacoma, Washington, members started the day with an informative tour of the Douglas Fir Plywood Association laboratory, followed by a visit either to Northwest Syndicate, Inc., to inspect their new electronic edge gluer, or to the St. Paul and Tacoma Lumber Co. At the afternoon technical session, J. R. Segesser, California Research Corp., Richmond, Calif., discussed "Sizing Forest Products with Petrolatum," pointing out applications to the various processes of hardboard manufacture and listing advantages of petrolatum as a sizing material.

Dr. Ben Bryant, College of Forestry, University of Washington, Seattle, in a paper entitled "The Effect of Incising on the Bending Strength of Crossarms," gave a detailed report on an incising experiment on matched crossarms, followed by a statistical analysis that is applicable to this entire field of research.

Dr. Al Stout, of the Western Pine Association, presented a paper by Virbil H. Freed, Agronomist, Oregon Sate C.ollege.

After reviewing early days, when little thought was given to utilization, timber supply or sustained yield, Schrader discussed new developments that have come about through the work and supervision of technically trained men.

Schrader said that "the best tool for success in business is a competitive advantage, which can be obtained through the development of new and better products and production methods." To gain this end, he called for "research to return a profit."

Election of new officers at the meeting included the following: Chairman, Carl A. Rasmussen, Western Pine Association, Portland, Ore.; Vice-Chairman, Walter C.

Today we are prosperous. Today we have more business

in sight than we dreamed existed only a few short years ago. Today we are moving under the impetus of nationwide dollar prosperity. But tomorrow is coming.

Today we are having the "fat years" that the Good Book mentions. But there may be lean years to follow, and the wise man is storing his warehouses now against the time of need.

He is laying up stores of confidence, and trust, and knowledge, and all those other emotional trade builders that will prove so immensely val\rable to him when the "big rush" is over.

He is not neglecting the "little fellow," the "small order," in the rush of filling the big bills, for who knows but what the little man of today may be the big man of tomorrow?

Prosperity is the true test of a man's souL Adversity may show his goodness, but prosperity often brings out his badness.

There is more to the building material business than tle dealers side of it; There is more than swapping materid

There is also the providing of shelter, the securing of comfort and happiness and cleanliness and convenience.

There is the building of the community; trhere is tbe making of homes.

And he who fails to foster the small order when business is good, is killing the desire for building, for improvement on which rests the very foundations of the building matcrial industry.

\(/eyerha?u3er Timber Company's Annual Report Tacoma, March }-Weyerhaeuser Timber Company invested $36,923,109 in the Pacific Northwest for plant expansion and modernization during 1952, it was reported today.

The company's annual report to shareholders shows that this u'as the largest amount spent in any single year, and brings the total spent for new plants, equipment, and roads during the post-war period to $160 million. Plans call for expenditure of approximately $3O million during 1953.

While sales of forest products reached a new high of $2ffi,W1,239 for 1952, the company's net income was less than in 1951. Wages and salaries and the number of employees rvere also highest in the firm's history.

Higher lvages and salaries, plus decreases in average prices of lumber and plywood, reduced the company's net income to $36,706,578 ($5.89 per share), compared with $39,94'5,708 ($6.39 per share) for 1951.

The Weyerhaeuser company gained !X0 employees during 1952, bringing the total force to 14,783 at the year's end. Since 1947, when its post-war expansion program began, more than 5,000 men and rvomen have been added to the company payroll. \\rages and salaries, includipg vacation and holiday pay', totaled W7,833,f%2, up $5,859,77 lrom 1951. In addition, the cost of employee bepefrts-pensions, employee insurance and social security taxes-was $5,512,593, compared s'ith $5,217,160 for the year before. Average wages of the firm's hourly paid employees $'ere $4,360, an increase of $260 over 1951.

Dividends paid to shareholders rvere $15,602,1m. The annual dividend rate of $2.50 per share rvas the same as in 1951. The company's taxes for the year were $33,810,357.

On the other hand, with materials in more ample supply, we must be prepared for increasing competition and resulting pressures on prices which may well offset the advantage of increased production.,' For the first time, the company included a special 12page illustrated booklet with its annual report to describe progress and problems in forest-products research.

Association directors also named as vice presidents George L. Barkhurst of Michigan River Timber company' Laramie, Wyo., and A. B. Hood of Ralph L. Smith Lumber company' Redding, California.

C. T. Gray of Stockton Box company, Stockton, was reelected treasurer.

Committee meetings were held Thursday and a general mem.bers' meeting on Friday.

Western Pine Looks lor "Another Yecrr Like 1952" The Western Pine industry looks for 1953 to be "another year like 1952," Walter S. Johnson, San Francisco, told members of the Western Pine Association as they concluded their annual meeting.

Johnson, president, American Forest Products Corporation and retiring president of the group, said that housing seems to be headed for another million-unit year. The bulk of pine lumber production goes into residential construction.

The speaker said that western pine lumbermen foresee no inflation in the market value of their products as a result of price decontrol. Except for a few select and shop items, he saicl, lumber has been selling for well under OPS ceilings and that little change had been noted since end of controls.

Phil Creden, advertising and merchandising manager of

Edward Hines Lumber Company, Chicago, urged pine producers to give more promotion assistance to lumber dealers"Your competition," he said, "works very closely with dealers by providing merchandising and sales assistance. As a result, dealers are pushing products to do the job that lumber can actually do more efficiently and at less cost.

"You must meet that competition," Creden warned, "to keep the lumber dealer in the lumber business."

Bctph 8. Mcccrtrc;

Ralph R. r\Iacartney, manager, Klamath Falls, Ore. branch.

Weyerhaeuser Timber Company and president of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association, urged all lumber companies to make greater use of the NLMA research laboratory facilities, operated by Teco, a subsidiary of the National.

"Lumber's retention of a reasonable share of present markets and a greater portion of qew markets will depend, to a large extent, on technical .developments in the t'ood products industries in the next few years," he said.

Macartney said that lumber manufacturers should start research projects in the Washington lab to (1) develop newer, more economical treating methods to increase fire resistance and dimensional stability and further reduce insect and decay damage, (2) develop realistic working stress data on the strength of w'ood and laminated products, (3) develop new laminating processes and improved adhesives, damping devices and handling machinery, and (4) develop new processes for pulping waste wood from forests, sawmills and wood products plantS.

The Teco lab, he reported, has in its nine years of existence accomplished many projects of great value to the industry and the public. One project--developing satisfactory specifications for government purchasing that producers can meet-has already saved the government over $3 million.

S. V. Fullaway, Jr., of Portland, Association secretary-

manager, told the lumbermen that management must assume the cost of educating its employes in.the working of the American economic system.

"Apparently," he said, "many business men are willing to believe, since a new administration has taken office, that the 'creeping socialism' which thieatens the foundation of American progress, has now been banished and that such danger can be forgotten.

"Nothing is further from the fact. Those who oppose suclr political and economic philosophy have only gained a respitehave just been able to 'get their foot in the door.' The real effort is ahead. The situation is still precarious."

(Continued from Page 20) urged the pine producers to develop among their Fullaway employes a better understanding of economic principles.

W. E. Griffee, assistant to Fullaway, reported that indications currently point to another 1,000,000-unit year in residential housing construction but warned that the rate of new family formations is definitely down.

The present 42 million homes provide fairly livable housing for nearly everybody, he said, and home owners already are paying on 60 billion dollars of mortgages.

On the other hand, Grifiee declared, people like new homes just as they like new cars and refrigerators. If new homes are merchandised aggressively, people rvill buy if they have the money. With personal income likely to reach a new high, people will have the money this year.

The Portland lumberman said that demand for pine shop lumber, for the manufacture of doors, windows and other woodwork, is currently brisk because distributor inventories were below normal late last year.

A feature of the Westdrn Pine meeting was the premier showing of the Association's new.color motion picture, "Bounty of the Forest," filmed by Gene K. Walker Productions, San Francisco, which will be available April I fpr showing bv dealer and club groups.

Ernest L. Kolbe, Portland, chief forester for the pine group, said that a control'program, involving emergency harvesting of infested trees, has been mapped out by industry and forest service officials. Logging, he said, is the only means of controlling the beetle which burrows under the bark and is not accessible by spraying Main-line and spur roads necessary for access to the infected timber will cost approximatel.v $20 million, he reported. Cost will be about equally divided by government and industry.

Insect, Disease Mencce Western Forests Western United States is confronted by one of the most serious forest insect and disease problems in its history, it was reported. Western pine lumbermen, attending the annual meeting said that three important timber species are under major insect attack and infestations in several others are showing increased activitiy.

Truman Collins, Portland, Oregon and California mill operator ancl chairman of the Association's forest conservation committee, said that potential loss is estimated to run as high as 20 billion board feet.

The most critical epidemic facing pine region manufacturers, Collins said. is in Montana and Northern Idaho where 600

million feet (more than 800,000 trees) of ripe Engelmann Spruce has already been killed by bark beetles.

Collins said that industry foresters' reports show that half of the area's 12 billion feet of starlding spruce timber, most of

it belonging to the government, is immediately threatened by the same insect that killed four billion feet of spruce in Colorado three years ago.

The Portland forester said that other major infestations include the Douglas Fir bark beetle rrhich threatens 12 billion feet in the fir region of western Oregon and Washington and extension of a budworm epidemic, attacking White Fir in Oregon and Washington, into Montana and ldaho.

Kolbe said three million acres of White Fir have been sprayed from the air in past three years at a cost of about $l per acre. The budworm, a needle-eater, can be killed by DDT spray.

Bark beetles are also attacking Ponderosa Pine, I-odgepole Pine and Idaho \4'hite Pine in increasing numbers, he said.

Idaho White Pine stands are under additional attack 6y a mysterious pole blight, cause of which is still undeterinined.

Kolbe said that industry and government officials are working jointly on all insect and disease problems and control measure. Industry is maintaining an insect detection service and studies of each problem are made by government groups.

Carl A. Rasmussen, Portland, head of the pine association's research laboratory in Portland, said that a new glued-up utility sheathing panel developed in the Oregon lab has been given FHA recognition, clearing the way ior volume production by pine mills.

The new panel is constructed without nails by fasiening random width boards together with recessed splines glued in place. Research has indicated, Rasmussen said, that 2xB-foot panels are easiest and fastest to handle in applying the sheath-

ing for walls, subfloors and roofs.

He said the panel has a nail-holding advantage over sheathing panels of materials other than wood. Siding may be held in place over it even though carpenters miss studs in nailing.

Rasmussen said that other laboratory developments during the past year include a combination lighting system for better' lumber grading, progress toward discovering a durable clear finish for exterior use, and demonstration that chemical protection of logs against staining in storage is feasible.

He also reported that laboratory work has been completed on the extraction of arabogalactan, an adhesive used in drug and dietary compounds, from l.arch lumber. Purification of the product, by separating the tannins, has been satisfactorily worked out in a method easily adapted to commercial production units.

Current source for drug and food adhesives, used in the manufacture of pills and candy, is gum arabic imported from the Middle East.

Some 300 sawmill men, plus a large delegation of lumber buyers from eastern and western markets, attended the meet-

Three Star Door Expcnding Program Underwcy A. Kabot and Bruce Kabot, father and son owners of the Three Star Door Company of Torrance, are now well established in their new location at 19730 South Figueroa Street in Torrance, and according to their recent announcement, will immediately increase their factory and warehouse facilities to 15,000 square feet on their two and one half acre site.

Three Star Door manufacturing company was established in Los Angeles over ten years ago and moved to the present location the end of last year. With over forty years experience in the manufacture of all types of doors they are presently producing slab stock doors only for the retail lumber dealers

of Southern California.

Present factory facilities include two warehouses of approximately 5000 square feet. During the spring and summer months additional construction will be complete which will increase manufacturing and storage area to 15,000 feet, thus increasing the production of this firm's output to well over seven hundred doors daily for the Greater Southern California trade.

"We intend to expand our operation immediately, and continue to expand throughout the years to come, in order to meet the demand for our doors at the consumer level." said Bruce Kabot.

Trees and Competition and Quality From watching trees grow in a young forest, man learns many useful truths concerning competition, ind quality.

When an area of young trees are planted by foresters, the little trees start growing very close together. And immediately there begins a mighty but quiet competition between those little trees; competition to grow upward toward the sunlight and moisture in the upper air; those two factors that give the trees life and strength.

And every little tree in tfiat new forest strives, and stretches, and fights its instinctive way upward and ever upward; a competition that never ends during the entire life of the tree. For, by reason of this constant striving upward, the tree grows strong and straight.

What thls mark

this mark

The treetops merge, making heavy shade betow, causing the lower limbs to fdl ofr. The bark covcrs the scars, and the Surface of the trunk becomes smooth and straight and attractive as the tree itself. The grain of the wood is thus made to grow straight 3nd slirni'ratcs defccts, and ig made stronger and more valuable by far than it could evcr bave been but for this striving. Compctition has given to the 6ber of this tree strength, straightness, qudi$.

Which proves that Mother Nature knows no socidiso, and that she teaches her children tbe irnrnutablc law tbat competition, even in inanimate things, makes for qudity, strength, beautSr, and usefulness.

And this sa-e lesson that Mother Nature teac.hes concerning trees, she teaches likewise concerning UEN.

Forestryr Ad Mats Avcrilcble Washington, D.C.-Twenty-six brand new attention getting forestry ads, each designed to do a teaching job in the interest of better woodland management and fire prevention, are offered to the nation's publishers this week. The ads, available in mat form for sale by the advertising depa.rtments of newspapers and magazines, are a public service from American Forest Products IndustriesThe mats are available without charge from AFPI's headquarters at 1816 N Street, N.W., Washington 6, D.C., on request. Most of the 1953 ad series is available in sizes ranging from four to two columns in width. This year's advertising campaign places special emphasis on appeals to sportsmen and others using the forests for recreation to be extremely careful with fire.

Other ads in the series are aimed specifically at woodland protection problems in the South, where approximately three-fourths of the nation's annual forest fire loss occurs. One ad discounts the theory, long held by many farmers, that woods burning kills boll weevils. Another comments on the principa.l causes of incendiarism and points out the fallacies in American folklore that lead people to start woods fires.

"Everyone loses because a few people over-estimate the usefulness of fire and under-estimate the damage it does to America's timber resources," the ad says.

Still another ad in the series points up the importance of sound industries in the economic life of the United States with the headline: "ft takes more than .houses to make an American community."

Forest industries, by marketing and manufacturing useful products from raw materials, provide eco' nomic bone and sinew in more than 60,(X)0 towns and cities around the United Statis, the ad states.

The 1953 AFPI forest ad series is offered as a public service by the nation's lumber, pulp and paper and other wood-processing industries and wmdland owners.

R.O.Ws Outsell 0rher Windows-By 2 ro I There is as great a difference between nemov-

able R.O.Ws and ordinary windows as between a vacuum cleaner and a broom.

Women like the patented removable feature because it permiLs complete removal, from the inside, for fast and easy cleaning.

Men like it because it makes painting and glass replacement quick and convenient.

The annoyance of ladders is eliminated.

R.O.Ws combine the finest construction with the extra value take-out feature.

The Fcrrm Is the Anchor

By James J. Hill So far back as we know anything about civilization, the

cultivation of the soil has been the first and most important industry in any thriving state. ft will always be. Herodotus, the father of history, tells the story of the human race in the Valley of the Euphrates.

He says that with poor cultivation those who tilled the soil there got a yield of fiftyfold, with fair cultivation one hundredfold, and with good cultivation two hundredfold.

That was the garden of the world in its day. Its great cities, Babylon and Nineveh, where are they? Piles of desert sand mark where they stood. In place of the millions that overran the world, there are a few wandering Arabs feeding half-starved sheep and goats. The Promised Land-the land of Canaan itself-to which the Children of Israel were brought up from Egypt, what is it now?

A land overflowing with milk and honey? Today it has neither milk nor honey. It is a barren waste of desert, peopled by scattered robber bands. A provision of Providence fertilized the soil of the Valley of the Nile by overfowing it every year. From the earliest records that history gives, Egypt has been a land of remarkable crops; and today the land thus fertilized by overfow is yielding more abundantly than ever.

It is made clear by every process of logic and by the proof of historic fact that the wealth of a nation, the character of its people, the quality and permanence of its institutions

are all dependent upon sound and sufficient agricultural foundation. Not armies, or navies, or corunerce, or diversity of manufacture or an5rthing other than the farm is the anchor which will hold through the storms of time that sweep all else away.

The Drecrner I am tired of planning and toiling, In the crowded hives of men: Heart-weary of building and spoiling, And spoiling and building again.

And I long for the dear old river, Where I dreamed my youth away, For a dreamer lives forever, And a toiler dies in a day.

Boyle O'Reilly

-James

Words Govern the lips as though they were palace doors, the king within; tranquil and fair and courteous be all words which from that presence win.-Sir Edwin Arnold.

Plqythingrs

By Robert Louis Stevenson The streets are full of human toys, Wound up for three score years; Their springs are hungers, hopes, and joys, And jealousies and fears.

They move their eyes, their lips, their hands; They are marvelously dresscd; And here my body stirs or stands, A plaything like the rest.

The toys are playcd with tiU thcy fall, Worn out and thrown away.

Why were they ever made at all?

Who sits to watch the play?

Flesh Color "How come you got all dat soot on you'collab, bby? Is you bin cl'eanin' de chimbly?"

"Naw, I ain't bin cleanin' no chimbly, an' dat aint no soot; dass dandrufr."

Report on the Public Housing Situation Since the Public Housing program began in 1937, the Government has helped build 236,000 of these low rental dwelling units in all parts of the country, and has another 93,000 under construction at the present time. On this construction the Government has paid out 96 million dollars in subsidies.

The goal for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 1953, is about 35,000, and well informed Washingtonians figure it wili be about the same for the year beginning July first. In 1949 Congress stepped up the public housing program by authorizing 810,000 low rate dwellings through Government help over a six year period, but in 1952 the lawmakers trimmed it back to 50,000 a year, and for 1953 to 35,000.

Ex-Congressman Albert M. Cole, of Kansas, who is the new head of the Housing and Home Finance Agency which has charge of the public housing operation, is generally credited with being highly critical of the present methods and program for public housing, and is frankly seeking a substitute for same that will be more practical and sensible. Under the present system the Government furnishes the funds to do the building of public housing units, and then when they are completed and rented, supplies the cash difterence between the rent secured for them and the cost of supplying them. For example, if the total cost of supplying a unit is $60 a month and it rents for $50, the Government chips in the needed ten bucks a month.

Mr. Cole doesn't like the deal, and wants to find an out.

Private builders seek to scrap the program altogether, at least cut it awav back.

Trcnslerred to Pcrl'n Springs Guy Kremer, who has been manager of the Elsinore branch

of the Dill Lumber Company, has been transferred to Palm Springs where he will manage a ne\r' branch for the company.

George Lyle has been appointed manager of the Elsinore branch. He has been connected w'ith the Elsinore yard for some time.

Ioins Insulite's Scles Std J. K. Mantle, San Francisco, has been appointed a salesnan

for Insulite building products in northern C,alifornia coastal counties.

Mantle will handle the entire Insulite line, including structural insulation board, insulating wool and hardboard, according to R F. Triplett, assistant sales manager for Insulite.

Earle Johnson, Watsonville Lumber Company, is con-

valescing in the Watsonville Hospital.

Jim Magee, Earl Hoffman wholesale lumber executive, returned last week following his annual trip to their mills.

American Institute of Timber Construction Annual Meeting lems. The Institute feels that in many cases fire insurance rates are inequitable and needlessly penalize the investor or the tax payer who would otherwise have access to the ecorx)-

Bocrd oI direciorg oI the Americqn Inslitute ol Timber Conetmcton Left to rigbt C. W. f,noll, Cbcrleg C. Cclvert, Wcrd Mcyer, T. C. Cornbs, qnd FranL I. Hcrnrchan. ![. C. Ilcrnircb, Ir- and Vql Gcdner dre not iacluded in lbe pictura.

The first annual meeting of the American Institute of Timber Construction was held at Desert Inn, Las Vegas, Nevada, March 3 to 6, 1953. This rireeting place proved to be ideal both weatherwise and for the convenience of delegates and guests from all parts of the United States.

The week's sessions were devoted to open committee meetings, board meetings and the annual meeting of the membership as well as several technical sessions. Highlight was a symposium on fire safety and fire insurance matters held on Thursday, March 5th. President Ward Mayer presided. Important papers were: "Facts and Figures on Sprinkler Risk Insurance," Lloyd Walling, Engineer Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, Los Angeles.

"Research and Fire Safety," T. K. May, Director of Technical Service, West Coast Lumbermen's Asdociation, Portland, Ore. "Building Codes and Related Problems," John Fies, Western Technical Representative, National Lumber Manufacturer's Association, San Francisco.

In summarizing, President Ward Mayer stated: "The Symposium rvas aimed directl-r- at insurance prob-

mies and other advantages of modern timber construction, properly used in conjunction with companion materids of suitable type.

"The one story school of to{ay is a case in point. Floors are generally concrete slab, directly on the ground, therefore there is no threat from below. Walls and partitions may be fire resistant timber or masonry and of course there are large expanses of glass. Roof may be of slow burning timber construction. Modern corridor and exit planning is such that there is no threat of life or accident and the small amount of inflammables in the modern classroom is so insignificant that even if ignited the.result would be local only and readily controllable through normal facilities. Yet rates frequently favor unprotected steel in such instances, through the requirement for use only of incombustible'materials.

"The fallacy in this term is that for all practical purposes it is the degree of fire resistance of the enclosure whidr should govern. Once this is recognized many of the insurance-inequities now existing, particularly between insurance rates on heavy timber construction and unprotected steel will, they think, be automatically adjusted."

Officers and directors whose terms had expired were reelected. Hence the roster now comprises: President, Ward Mayer, general manager, Timber Stmctures, Inc., Portland, Ore.; Vice President, Max C. Hanisch, Jr., president, Unit Structures, Peshtigo, Wis.; Directors, Charles Calvert, president, Summerbell Roof Structures, Los Angeles, C. W. Knoll, president, Roof Structures, Inc., Web' ster Groves, Mo., Val Gardner, president, Miller-Gardner Fabrication Company, Monroe, Ore.; Secretary-Treasurer, T. C. Combs, president, Arch Rib Truss Corporation, Los Angeles; Executive Vice President, Frank J. Hanrahan, Washington, D.C. The membership now comprises approxirnately l(X) active, associate, professional and individual members.

The next annual meeting will be held on the first Friday of April, 1954. It is likd that several general or special committee meetings will be held meanwhile.

The Institute's headquarters are located at Suite l0[., 1757 K Street, N.W., Washington 6, D.C.

AFPI 1952 Annual Report Washington, D.C., March l8-Industry's faith in the forestlands and people of the United States-rededicated and restated-is summarized in the 1952 annual report of American Forest Products Industries released this week.

The sixteen page publication, specially prepared for AFPI's subscribers and cooperators in all 48 states, revibws the forestry, educational and informational activities of the industrysponsored organization during the past year.

Basic objectives of American Forest Products Industries as stated in the report are: (1) To encourage private woodland

owners in growing continuing timber crops, and (2) To inform the public of the activities of the forest industries and

private timberland owners.

"From the very beginning," states the report, "AFPI's sponsors have been firm in their belief that establishment of woodland management practices favorable to continuing timber production is an obligation of all forestland owners and of the industries that use wood as a raw material. Never have they wavered in this belief.

"fn most timber-producing communities of the United

States," the report points out, "owners of srnall timber tracts need look no farther than the nearest industrial forest to see a model woodland management plan in operation. Excep-

tions to this rule become fewer with each passing year."

The AFPI report goes on to point out that forest industries today provide incentive for u'ise woodland management by providing cash markets for sawlogs, pulprvood, veneer bolts and a variety of other timber crops. It points to the conservation work of 4,500 technical foresters emplol'ed b)' woodprocessing industries and calls them "the largest corps of treegrowing technicians in the nation." Eighty per cent of the 510,000 acres of forest planted in the United States last year was

done by private industry and other tax-paying woodland
