putes is well recognized and appreciated by both unions and management.

"We hope that this non-profit association can carry forward his pattern of firm but fair dealing in all matters of employee and union relations. Past experience has shown that industry-wide bargaining in this area has been advantageous to both employers and employee groups. By increased participation of member companies and continued cooperation by unions in seeking peaceful solutions to grievances and negotiations, strikes or work stoppages will continue to be rare in these industries.

"We have been fortunate in obtaining the services of Dwight Steele as our Manager. He has had many years of experience as a negotiator and with employer associations and is well known in Bay Area Labor-Management circles.

"As a final tribute to my friend Nat Edwards:we shall sorely miss him-we are grateful for the privilege of having known him."

Acousticol Moteriol Simplified

The Acoustical Industry has adopted a program of simplification to red,r.e the variety of its stock items, according to the Commodity Standards Division, Office of Technical Services, Business and Defense Services Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce.

This reduction was accomplished by a new Simplified Practice Recommendation developed by the Commodity Standards Division in cooperation with the industry and now available from the Superintendent of Documents, lJ.S. Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D.C., at 10 cents a copy. It is SPR R262-60 Acoustical Material.

The Simplified Practice Recommendation lists sizes, thicknesses, and edge finishes now recommended to be produced and carried as regular stock items.

This Standard of simplified practice represents five years of cooperative efiort on the part of all segments of the industry to reduce the wide variety of sizes. thicknesses. and finishes that have built up over the years. Through general adherence to thiS list, it is expected that costs can be curtailed, warehouse space reduced, and servicing problems eliminated.
