Recognizing its unique characteristics, the United States Patent OfFce has issued to us patent numbers 2,286,O6; 236),492; and 2,t$,921 covering this material.

It has come to our notice that Zeesman Plywood Corporation and Vener & Son, all of Los Angeles, Calif., are manufacturing and selling a product which is deemed to be an infringement of the above patents. To protect our patent interest in this important product, it has been necessary to file suit against these parties.

'While we regret any inconvenience which may be caused to our custorners, we are compelled to point out that all dealers and others who purchase any striated or combed plywood which infringes our "Weldtex" patents are legally responsible for their action.

Our production of Ifeldtex plywood has been increased substantially so that, in spite of continued heavy demand, this product will be available in greater quantities.

Chcrnqie in FIIA Minimum Property Requirements

A recent change has been made in Paragraphs 411-A through 411-C of the Minimum Property Requirements of the Federal Housing Administration relative to roof coverings.

This change makes possible the construction of a wood shingle roof rvith a minimum pitch of 4 in 12, provided the roof is covered with No. 1 shingles at a maximum exposure of 4f" for 16" shingles. It should be specifically noted that this reduction in roof pitch does not apply when asphalt shingles are used, in which case the minimum roof slope remains unchanged at 5 in 12.

Copies of the changed paragraphs are available upon request to the.Federal Housing Administration, 112 W. 9th Street, Los Angeles 15, Calif.
