How Lumber [.rooks

San Francisco, May 26-12,000 Bay area striking carpenters will start voting tomorrow, to accept or reject strike-ending agreement, signed by their negotiators Saturday. Joseph F. Candiano, international representative A.F.L., predicts they will accept.

As we go to press most of the Fir mills in Washington and Oregon that were affected by the CIO strike have reached an agreement with the union and are now operating. A few mills are still down but an early settlement is expected.

The negotiating committee of the more than 2O large plywood and door manufacturing plants that were down came to an agreement with the union and the men returned to work on May 15.

Portland, Oregon, May 1S-Douglas fir sawmill men are witnessing an interesting neck-and-neck race as orders for their lumber keep pace with shipments from their mills. In the first four months of 1952, orders and shipments totaled 3,514 billion board feet each.

Production of. 3,494 billion feet, said Harris E. Smith, secretary, West Coast Lumbermen's Association, is 68 million feet below output for the same period in 1951. Orders and shipments for 1952 also are below 1951 figures.

Smith said the effects of the closure of some camps and mills by the general strike is not reflected in production figures just released.

The weekly average of West Coast Lumber production in April was 212,273,000 b.f. or L13.4/o of the L947-1951

Four months of 1952 cumulative production 3,494,744,M b.f.; four months of 1951, 3,562,361,000 b.f.; four months of 1950, 2,894,335,000 b.f.

Orders for four months of. 1952 breakdown as follows: Rail and truck, 2,4I4,690,m b.f.; domestic cargo, 709,656,000 b.f. ; export, 2I9,49tf!,W b.f. ; local, 170,745,m b.f..

The industry's unfilled order file stood at 9M,290,0ffi b.f.. at the end of April, gross stocks at 940,238,000 b.f.

coNcERNTNG THE 1"T" *HARRY T. KENDALL

I am going to attempt probably the most difficult job of my fifty odd years of writing. I am going to try and give you a word picture of Harry T. Kendall, of St. Paul, Minnesota, who passed into the Great Beyond just a few short days ago, leaving behind him as priceless a heritage as :rny businessman ever bequeathed to* posterity.

It is entirely fitting that this entire space be devoted to Harry Kendall; for there have been few like him before, and it seems most unlikely that any other of such glittering personality and consequence shall pass this way again. That the lumber industry should produce so remarkable a man, is a high compliment to the industry. Not many industries have done so. His warm friends may argue that there has been none other*of his kind and caliber.

To give you a first picture of Mr. Kendall, let us.watch him as he enters the entrance door of an office. It matters not how big or how small the office may be, how important or how inconsequential the concern it houses, Harry Kendall makes his approach in the same manner. To the 1'ady at the door, be she trained receptionist in the large office or a new steno in a small o;t.;ta is the same Harry Kendall.

He smiles as few other men could smile, puts out his hand and gives the lady a cordial hand-shake, and says: "f am Harry Kendall, and I'd like to se Mr. So-and-So." You can imagine the impression such an entrance makes. 'Ihis splendidly dressed, keen-eyed, white-haired man of distinguished manner and appearance, comes in with a big smile and a hand-shake that ?"1.r him unforgettable.

Everything else that Harry Kendall did in eitJrer his private or his public life, was on a par with this approach. Yet there was nothing artificial about him; not a move or a word would indicate that he was not genuinely glad to shake hands with the girl at the office door, as with the President of some great business enterprise. The man's soul was in his eyes and in his voice, and instinctively people Iiked and trusted him, and gave careful ear when he spoke.

Bigness was written all over the man. When he spoke, it was with a straight tongue and a pl'easing manner. And he was invariably convincing, because he always knew what he was talking about, and was always eminently fitted for whatever subject he gave his thought to. Which is the very essence of success in a business man.

When the writer first met him about 45 years ago, we immediately struck up a friendship that lasted without one word or note of anything except harmony to this day. Without the least ostentation, even in those early days when his salary as a lumber salesman in East Texas was small, he always did the right thing. lle wore the right clothes, knew all about the right manners for social contacts, p'icked up the right fork at the right time at a dinner, and altogether was the kind of persion you instinctively admired, while you could not help liking him as well. Harry Kendall was a gentleman. He was instinctively so.

Ffe never uttered a harsh word, or one of unkind criticism. If he could not speak well of you, he refrained from speaking. He was gentle, whil'e never hesitant about speaking his mind when it came time to talk. He made no mouthy errors whatever the provocation, and his talk was not only fair and just, but uniformly wise. He is one of the few men I ever heard of who never made a mistake in his personal conversation or action. God had simply created him a man of unusual caliber and fine *fl and so he remained.

When I first knew Harry Kendall he was a very thin person. He was more than that-he was skinny. As years passed he took on considerable weight that gave him something of the look of consequence that he naturally possessed. His hair changed, and in time he became white-headed, with a full head of hair that was most attractive, and that lent more impressiveness to his appearance. And so it was that the skinny, un-handsome nuln who used to sell lumber out of Waco, Texas, long ago, became the impressiveappearing gentleman that*he*has been for years past.

Always a worker and always trying to do a better job today than he did yesterday, it was inevitable that he should climb the business hill. And climb it he did in terrific fashion. The important positions he held at the time of his death attest to the fact that he was tireless in his energy, and responsive to a myriad of calls from a great variety of directions. ft was, perhaps, this that brought about his sudden death. Of an age to retire, he instead took upon himself new offices and new places of responsibility, all of which mean work. That he was the victim of work, might truthfully be said. He was day and night busy with a present multitude of duties and responsibilities, when the Good Master touched him and said: "ft is time for rest." And he heeded the*call. *

A restless soul who was always moving, who can say that he would not-if given his choice-have preferred the sudden manner of his taking. He would not have made a

4 ,rrdJ-/?rrorrn natnp *o the U.df--

4 ,rtdJ-l*nun, annp in Aritnlteh

happy invalid. So he is gone. And some of the sunshine went out of the lives of a multitude that knew, honored, and loved him, when the sad news came. We know but one thing further. that wherever Harry Kendall is, he is

doing the best job that anyone could do, and is the joy of that loving personality there, just here. We shall miss him.

Yes, Tirnes Have Changed

The other day there came to this desk a letter from the highly intelligent and charming wife of one of our good lumber friends, asking for advice and assistance. And when we read it we knew for sure that times have changed, and "things aint what they used to be."

She said that she had been asked to make a talk to a ladies club to which she belonged, and that she had chosen for her subject, of all things, "Reforestation." Yes, Sir, you read itright. She elected to talk to her lady friends on the subject of scientifically growing forests for the future.

Hark you back to the days of yore, and recall if you will the subjects that were discussed when ladies gathered together socially, and see how different were the subjects handled. They need hardly be named, but were mostly cf the most social character.

And now we find a lady who thinks reforestation one of the most interesting subjects in the world today, and went abour learning all she could on the subject in order that she might properly and intelligently present it. Well, we gave her some suggestions, also names of others who were in position to help with such a subject, and we warned her tJrat she had taken upon herself a real big chore in selecting such a subject, and suggested that she deliver the thdies mostly generalities, lest she find herself invading a province of giant proportions.

What a subject ! Not so many years ago the lumber industry gave little or no thought to growing trees. It was busy cutting them. And suddenly the entire industry has become reforestation minded, and tree growing is the biggest thought that pervades the industry. It IS a wonderful subject, and we trust that our lumber lady friend finds herself able to encompass some part of the picture into a normal speaking time. And we feel certain that the subject will find :rn eager audience. The fact that there will always be forests from which materials for housing and otherwise suppiying man and his possessions can be obtained, appeals to all intelligent people.

Wood is a lovable material of a million uses, and it is good to know that, because of the efforts of man, there will always be a satisfactory supply. The industry was slow starting its interest in reforestation, but it is rolling now, and the roll will increase materially with every year that passes.

Mr. and Mrs. William E. Kesler receivetl mauy congratulations on the birth of Susan Frances, their third child, in Oakland, Nfarch 31.

BE IT RESOLVED that we as members of the National-American Wholesale Lumber Association, fnc. at our 60th Annual Meeting assembled in Chicago, May 7, unanimously make the following recommendation to the n.rembers of the Congress of the United States:

THAT THE SECTIONS OF THE DEFENSE PRODUCTION ACT relating to the control of Wages and Prices not be renerved at the expiration of the Act on June 30, 1952.

We realize that a state of emergency was proclaimed by the President sometime ago. However, events have not justified the necessity for these controls and we consider them to be unwarranted under present circumstances.

Furthermore, r'u'e consider these controls an encroachment upon our individual liberties and a threat to the free enterprise system. They are un-American in concept and are socialistic in nature. There is also evidence of their being used in a punitive manner against the profit basis of our free economy. The administration of these unnecessary controls contributes further to the dangerous fiscal position in rvhich our government norv finds itself and adds unnecessarily to the cost of government and to the tax burden.

The registration l'as the largest in recent years.

Any home owner, and tl-rat includes dealers and builders, too, as well as plyu'ood manufacturers, are eligible for a crack at the 46 separate cash awards which the industry is offering. More important, the contest has been organized along two major lines to give the owners of farm homes and dealers serving them an equal chance of winning along

"Roor for lmprovement" Contest

(Continued from Page 18)

O. Harry Schrader, Jr., managing director of Douglas Fir Plywood Association, explained that the contest is designed to focus national atention on remodeling as an economical road to better living.

'But remrdeling as a market," he said, "has to be sold and we think this fresh new contest approach is one rvay to do it. All the contestant has to do is describe in his orvn words whar: he wants, tell us how he would do it with plywood and n-rake a simple floor plan of his home.

"Naturally he will be concentrating his attention on remodeling and plylvood. And win or lose, dealers can expect to see him in the lumber yard looking for building materials."

Eight of the first and second prize-winners will be en' couraged r,vith big cash bonuses to actually complete their remodeling. That means actual sales for some dealers, but it will also provide a reservoir of case study material for genuinely i,ractical promotional tools that rvill put a finger right on the "hot button" in thousands of remodeling prospects.

A new "Room-for-Improvement" protnotion kit makes it easy for de;-rlers to key their own promotion to the contest. The kit includes a colorful poster reproduction of the full page ad. Attached is a convenient pad of coupons u'hich your customers can tear off to get their copy of the entry blank and :ules. Dealers are also offered ten entry blanks u'ithout chirge and more are available at a fraction of their

actual cost. With each entry blank, the contestant receives a literature folder packed u,ith remodeling ideas to help him plan his entry.

The entire kit is available through your regular source of supply for plyrvood or from Douglas Fir Plywood Association, Tacoma 2, Wash. The contest closes June 30.

New Method of Protecting Dry Wall Corners

A nelv method of protecting interior and exterior dry u'all corners has recently been introduced by The Richkraft Company, manufacturers of building papers. The nerv product is being marketed on a national scale under the name Richbead.

Designed specifically for dry wall construction, Richbead is a patented metal angle glued to a joint tape that gives dry lvall corners a lasting hardness that won't be destroyed by toys, furniture, cleaning equipment, etc. The paper on Richbead has "feathered" edges, specially perforated to permit the cement to seep through for a tight, strong llond, blending the Richbead into the wall. Anvone can put it up, and there's no special skill or tools recluired' It can be used in old homes as well as new.

Manufactured in eight-foot lengths, Richbeacl is distributed by Pacific Coast Aggregates, Inc.

Construction Activity in April 1952

New construction outlays rose seasonally in April to a total of nearly $2.5 billion setting a new record for the month, according to a joint report of the Building Materials Division, U. S. Department of Commerce and the U. S. Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics. The total value of new construction put in place during April .ivas 8 per cent above the March 1952 total. private outla,ys rose by 5 per cent and public expenditures increased bv 12 per cent over the previous month.

Construction activity has continued at a record rate for the country as a whole this year even though some localities have experienced a drop from 1951 because of declines in housing and commercial rvork. The dollar volume of nerv ,construction was greater during the first {our months of f952 than in any other similar period.

The seasonal upturn in construction activity extended to nearly all types of projects. An exception was noted for private industrial plant expansion rvhich has reached a peak about one-third higher than a year ago. Private homebuilding actit'ity rose by 6 per cent during April and .rvas only 7 per cent below a year ago. Military construction showed no more than a seasonal advance in April but expenditures for military projects were more than 2l times those of April, 1951.

Total private outlays for nelv construction during the first four months of 1952 exceeded $6.1 billion, five per cent less than the total for the corresponding period of 1951. Public expenditures for nerv construction during the first four months of this year amounted to $2.8 billion which was 25 per cent more than during the same period of 1951.

Asks Congress To Terminate All Emergency Controls

The National Retail Lumber Dealers Association has asked Congress to terminate all emergency controls, including housing and real estate credit regulations, but recommends that the government be given continued authority to allocate supplies of critical materials actually required for defense production.

In a statement to the House Banking and Currency Committee, H. R. Northup, executive vice president of NRLDA, pointed out that inflation could be effectively controlled in case of a new emergency by adjusting' taxes, revising the the government's fiscal policies, and encouraging consumer savings, and added that:

"There is no effective control over wages, and there has been none since the inception of the Defense Production Act. Political considerations have made a mockery of wage control provisions. Industry and labor can do a far more effective job of controlling \'\,'ages than would be done under any legislative language Congress might approve.

"There is no longer any need or excuse for control of prices. The price trend has been downward for some weeks. Control officials are glossing over the deflationary forces now at work. Continuation of price control merely puts industry to the heavy expense and inconvenience of filling out useless reports.

"There is no justification for continuing credit controls,

as the Federal Reserve Board itself has recognized by its abandonment of voluntary credit restraints and by suspension of Credit Regulation 'W.' The problem today, so far as housing is concerned, is to bring more, not less, money into the mortgage market. Housing starts have been running at a relatively high level, but the sale of homes has been slowed dorvn drastically both by the shortage of mortgage funds, due to low interest rates on FHA insured and VA guaranteed loans and to other factors, and by the high downpayment requirements.

"Rent controls are serving no other purpose than to permit a relatively sma{l number of families to enjoy special advantage at the expense of other taxpayers. The temporary postwar housing shortage which gave rise to this repugnant legislation ceased to exist many months ago.

"The readjustment in defense production schedules, together with increased production of critical materials, has removed all need for continuing materials allocations so far as private construction and industrial requirements are concerned. Supplies of most materials already are outrunning demand. We believe that an appropriate agency of the federal government should have the authority to allocate supplies of critical materials actually required for defense production, but we believe there is ample evidence that supplies over and above those needed in the defense program will be adequate to meet civilian requirements.

"Those who urge that all controls be continued seem to be basing their plea on the position that, even though controls are not needed today, they might be needed in case

Another recent contract supervised by Struttn.ran is the Gershon-Scott office building along \Vilshire Boulevarcl's famed Miracle Mile in Los Angeles. It has t$'o rest rooms on each of 1 1 floors, all rvith coral-colored panel surfaces.

Con.rmercial structures of this type accottnt for approxin.rately 75% of the firm's sales volume. Considerable r'vork is also done for Safervay stores, a great many of u'hich have been erected. in Southern California since the lvar.

With many jobs to its credit, the Denton Company can use them as a sales tool by taking prospective customers to see exactly rvhat they can expect in their orvn buildings. A similar techniclue is the use of photographs to demonstrate features u'hich are dilficult to describe adecluatelv.

"There :rre certain requirements n'hich a dealer or applicator shoulC look {or in rvall and ceiling panels," Struttrnan explains. "First of all, they must be of uniform color. That means every shipment of a specific color shoulcl be the same shade. Sometirnes it is necessarv to match panels several years after they u'ere originally installed. If the color has changed, you're in trouble."

Struttmr,n points out that particular care must be takerr in remodeling jobs to see 'rvhat u'alls to be covered furnish a goocl, solid backing. A typical ren.rodeling sale is the one made not lc,ng ago to the o\\,ner of a large summer resiclence at l-ake Arror,r,head. Kitchen and bathrooms t'ill be completely refir,ished, l'ith er.ery assurance that the job rvill last for an indefinite period. Home ir.rstallations are made l'ith the same painstaking care used on comrnercial buildings.

At present Denton has approximatelv 4O emplovees on the pa1'roll. Last summer, n'hen construction activity s'as at a peak. more than 100 men were employ'ed. Practically :rll of the men no\\'on payroll have been u.ith the organization for at least five years.

Although most of the installation l-ork centers around Los Angelr:s. tl.re company has submitted bicls on projects as far distent as Colorado and NIontana. Struttman spends part of his time visitir.rg architects and general contractors u'ho are in charge of buildings n'hich call for nall ancl ceiling panels. The sanre practice is follou'ed by representati'r'es of Denton Company's tu'o other dir.isiclrrsthe acoustical zrnd flooring departments.

Ifit hadn't been for lumber, Where would we be today?

We wouldn't be at all, at all, That's what f'm here to say. For when the floods were roaring, And all earth's skies were dark, If there had been no lumber, There would have been no ark.

If there had been no lumber, The good old USA Would still be undiscovered, That's what I'm here to say. Columbus had his visions, His charts and trusted notes. But the whole wild trip depended, On three small wooden boats.

If there had been no lumber, What would Mount Vernon be?

A sorry mass of crumbling stone, Or so it seems to me.

But now we hail Mount Vernon, The home of Washington, It's built of sturdy lumber, Ilnmarred by storm and sun.

If there were now no lumber, What would we do today?

We'd have a funny time of it, That's what I'm here to say.

We'd have no shingl'es, posts, and shakes, No paneled walls and doors, No wooden beams and pickets, No handsome polished floors.

They laid their shoulders to the great points, knowing that the little ones would follow of themselves.

The little boy was crying, and the passing gentleman stopped and kindly asked him what was the trouble.

"My Dad is a rich philanthropist," said the little boy, sobbing anew.

"fs that something tocry about?" asked the kindly gentleman.

"It sure is," said the sad little boy. "fle gave me five dollars today, but only on condition that I raise a like amount."

He Didn't Understcnd Either

A lumberjack with a broken leg was brought into a hospital in the Northern lumber woods, and, after the leg was set and a nurse was helping make him comfortable, she asked him how the accident happened.

"You see, Ma'am, it was this way," he said. "I was skyhooking fo:' the Weyerhaeuser gang, and I had only one ground mole. He sent up a big blue butt, and she was heavy. I saw her yaw, and hollered for him to throw a St. Croix into her. fnstead the blankety blank idiot gave her a sag, and gunned her, and she wopplejawed around and cracked my pin."

"I don't seem to understand," said the bewildered nurse. "Neither do I," said the llrmberjack. "The blame fool must have been crazy."

for Western Homest'

By Kay Bollam, Director The Cresonidn Hostess House The Oresonidn, Portland, Oregon

To hit at every income level, ancl create a desire to improve the present home, new or old, the show u'as planned to appeal to those able to build neu, homes or remodel the old, those desiring to add to home convenience by improving storage spaces, and those equipped financially only to build an occasional piece of furniture in the home u'orkshop. Foundation of the exhibit rvas the display of 50 standard 4'by 8' panels, the majority of them plyrvoods in most popular veneers for northrvest home use. plus neu'est developments in textures, colorings. and linishes. A group of solid u'ood panellings, plus nerv hardboards, plastic surfaced plys, and softboard, conrpleted this group. E,leven of the lranels served as backgrounds for nervsn,orthy items from the decorator fielcl, nerv floor coverings, draperl' material and upholstery fabrics. The panels u'ere installed pylon or sandrvich board fashion to simulate finished u'all effect, and the decorator note $'as added to help women r-isitors translate the woods in terms of the finished room.

"\\ioods F'or Western ljomes" a first-in-the-country complete shou,ing of lr,oods and rvood products for the home rnterior, staged March 24-29 l>y the Oregonian llostess House, women's department of the Oregonian, Portland, Oregon, proved a strong attraction for men as well as \\'Omen.

Exhibitors n'ho shon'ed their products had felt, prior to the shorv, that men rvould not r-isit a tt'omen's department event. At the end of the shou'. after listening to a barrage of cluestions and rvatching r.isitors taking copiotts notes, they reached the conclusion that here u'as a practical rvay of merchandising on the retail level o{ stimulating greater interest in the use of rvoods and nood products. Display techniques used, they agreed, could be adapted easily to conform to retail outlet facilities.

Purpose of the shorv r'vas to call attention to the many possible and desirable use of rvoods and rvood products within the home and to show the newest developments in the field for such applications. It was an effort to help counteract, even in small measure, the slon'-up in home building in the area brought on by shortages and credit restrictions.

MODERN CROSS.CIRCULATION KILNS DRY SHEDS

WHO]ESALE AND DIRECT 't'IILtSHIPIVIENTS

5ee-

The installation of two new Nloore Cross-Circulation Kilns, one double track and one single track, each 68 feet long, has marked the latest step in the era of growth and expansion of The Dalles Lumber & Manufacturing Company, The Dalles, Oregon. Crowing with The Dalles was the original intention of Ursus E. Brock, president and general manager, when he and associates purchased a small sawmill and storage facilities at The Dalles in March, 1946. In September of 1947 fire destroyed the mill and the company built a new all electrically operated sawmill having a cutting capacity of 36 to 40 thousand feet of green lumber every 8-hour shift.

A second step in the expansion program was the installation of modern planing mill facilities in 1948. In addition to having capacity for finishing all the lumber produced by the sawmill, this planing mill is also available for finishing dimension lumber on a custom basis for the smaller sawmills in the MidColurnbia River Region.

The new kilns are of the latest Cross-Circulation design and the installation of them marks the third step in the company's expansion program. These kilns have a daily drying capacity of more than 35,000 feet of properly seasoned lumber per day. Earl Estes is in charge of kiln drying. Moore-Fin pipe is employed in the heating coils to give maximum heating effrciency with minimum restriction of air flow and permits the operation of the kilns with onlv 15 pounds steam pressure from the boiler. The buildings for these two new kilns have been constructed with concrete block walls and peaked wood roofs supported by steel trusses manufactured by Moore Dry Kiln Company. The large diameter fans which produce the uniform air circulation inside the kilns are housed beneath these trusses above the loads of lumber which are solid piled between the stacking stickers. The lumber florv to and from the kilns has been designed to utilize kilns of the charge type, but double endcd so that lumber is loaded at one end of the kiln, seasoned and removed from the other end of th kiln. After lumber is dried, it is removed from the kilns and stored under cover.

The interior kiln walls and ceilings rvere painted ll'ith

Installs Two Moore Kilns

Moore-Kiln Non-Fibrous Walltite before the kilns were placed in operation. This paint was applied in a minimum of time with a power spray painting outfit.

The large capacity loads of Fir and Pine lumber are handled through thc kiln on Moore Heavy Duty Dry Kiln Trucks manufactured with 9" diameter wheels which are alemite equipped for pressure lubrication to assure long life and ease in maintenance.

The Dalles Lumber & Manufacturing Company is cutting and finishing approximately B million board feet of Fire and Pine annually. The finished lumber is shipped to all points in the United States.

The company operates its own logging operation and rnaintains a cold deck of 2 to 2l million board feet of logs at the mill to insure year-around operation. In addition to the stancling merchantable timber owned or controlied by the company, logs are also secured from the \{t. Hood National Forest in connection with the United States Forest Service.

Employing between 60 and B0 local people, The Dalles Lumber and N{anufacturing Cornpany has continued "building ancl growing with The Dalles" as a home-owned and homeoperated industry. With the latest improvements, this plant is able to produce properly manufactured and properly seasoned lumber to meet the most exacting needs of the user.

Portland, Ore., April 28-A powerful new sales tool for retail lumber dealers was announced today bv Western Pine Association.

Promotion Manager Joseph W.

The playlets are a new feature of a Western Pine promotion program that has been serving retailers continuously for more than a quarter of a century.

Sherar announced that each of the seven playlets for theatre advertising is in full color. Dealers may specify their own identification and cornpany advertising message on a trailer that may be made up to accompany the playlets. The seven black and white television playlets are condensed versions of the theatre movie.

\Uest Coast \foods For Containers

By Georse M. Hansen \0est Coast Lumbermen's Association

The accelerated demand of our present Preparedness antl Defense eccnomy has sharpened the procurement problems for the wood container manufacturer and user. The West Coast Wocds: Douglas fir, \Mest Coast hemlock, Sitka spruce and Western red cedar, properly used, offer a substantial source of box and crate lumber.

While this article will discuss the West Coast Wood species anl their usefulness as boxes and'crates, of necessity it is presupposed that the wood user is already familiar with correct design and nailing principles applicable to all wood species. In general, proper design should recognize that'the basic functions of a box, crate or package are to hold the contents securely within and to keep other things out. To make these containers useful they should also be relatively inexpensive compared to their contents or reuseable, and almost always must be adaptable to piling compactly and to withstand the abuse of handling and stacking. Properly used, wood excels in all these respects.

Manufacturers of containers of wood, and other materials, too, know that the weakest parts of any construction are the joints. Inadequate nailing is the most common defect in'wood box constrttction and can render the best of wood species inadequate.

The alert wood box man has discovered that in general all the species within any one of the four container wood groups set up by the Forest Products Laboratory in Madison may be used interchangeably under the same specifications. He also knows that each group of species is best for particulrr types of containers and serviceability.

Sitka spr'.rce is included in Group 1 which is described as including the softer conifer' and broadleaf species. The species in this Group are more or less uniform in being soft, light in weight, easy to work, able to hold their shape and generally easy to dry. In general, they are moderate but adequate in nail holding, strength as a beam and resistance to shock. They excel in taking nails without splitting' Sitka spruce is ideal for any container designed to take advantage of these qualities.

CONDENSED TABLE OF VALUES OF CONTAINER QUALITIES OF DRY WEST COAST WOODSFROM THE WOOD HANDB'OOKI

2Group l, woods that glue easily with different glues under a wide .ange of gluing conditions; group 2, woods that glue-satisfactorily witE diffeierr'. glues and with moderate care in the gluing operation. Sitka spruce has individual characteristics however, that also make :t superb for certain more exacting containers' For its 'iveight, Sitka spruce is the strongest r'vood in the 'ivorld, stronger than steel. This quality plus inherent toughness and ebility to withstand jolts and impacts makes it a preferred wood for bottle crates. Sitka spruce has practically no pitch and holds paint firmly. No other wood excels Sitka spruce in gluing properties and when glued-up panels are needecl it is often the choice. The most distinctive quality of this species is the absence of color, taste or odor u,hich makes it ideal wood for food containers. Even butter is stored without danger of tainting in Sitka spruce tubs' The light color makes it attractive used as sliced veneer baskets or rvire bound crates.

Douglas fir is listed in Group II of the Forest Products Laboratorv Container Wood Classification. This group in'

cludes the heavier coniferous woods with conspicuous difference in hardness between the softer, lighter springwood and the harder, darker summerwood. The wood species included have excellent nail-holding power; however it is good practrce to use smaller nails spaced at shorter intervals in orCer to achieve the same minimum of splitting as shown by rvoods in Group I. It is practical to use thinner material with woods in Group II than in Group I.

Douglas fir is particularly rvell adapted for any container requiring the general qualities of Group II woods because it is one cf the strongest softwoods and is available in almost unlimited quantities. Another special characteristic 'ivhich makes is desirable is relative lack of splintering when subject to abrasion and pounding. Douglas fir remains straight an:1 flat rvhen stored, even when piled green. Because of it; strength, stability and availability Douglas fir is preferred by many shippers of large and heavy equipment.

West Coast hemlock is also included in Group II and understandably because in the lumber trade it is very often used interchangeably with Douglas fir. West Coast hem. lock, however, differs from most woods in Group II in having no pitch and a more uniform texture with less contrast between the springwood and summerwood layers. The nailing procedure for West Coast hemlock found to give best results is to use slightly smaller nails and at a little closer interval than for woods in Group I. Once dry, West Coast hemlock becomes odorless and does not impart any odor, taste or color to foods contained. Apples and other fruits, fresh fish and dairy products are shipped in West Coast hemlock crates as a matter of course. This wood differs from some other Group II woods, too, in that it is classed as one of the easiest of all woods to glue rvith different glues and under a u'ide range of gluing conditions. The qualities so desired :n shipping containers, lightness combined with high shock resistance, splitting resistance, nail holding capacity, and light color to sho'"v markings rvell are combined to a high degree in West Coast hemlock.

Western red cedar is included in the G:oup I softer rvoods along with Sitka spruce and for general box and container construction can be used interchangeablv u'ith other woods in that group. There are special qualities in cedar, however, that all the Group I species do not share. It is especially durable u'hen exposed to r,veather and decay-producing contions, making it popular for plant containers, seed flats and

beehives. The rvood is exceptionally light in tveight, and very easy to rvork. A use of cedar utilizing these qualities is as luggage stock as well as boxes and crates. \Vhile there is contrast :n the color of sapr,l'ood and heartwood the quality of taking and holding paints and markings is extremely good. \\restern red cedar is among the woods easiest to glue and it is much used for fabricating glued-up panels. It is a very stable 'rvood wherever a minimum of shrinkage is important. In situations rvhe:e other than ordinary strength is recluired, a slight increase in the thickness of material used n'ill often qualify the use of \\'estern red cedar. Even the unique aroma of cedar has been found useful in cigar boxes and the rvell knot'n clothes chests. Each of :he four West Coast species. Douglas fir, West Coast hemlock. Sitka spruce, and \\restern red cedar is a valuable, available source for containers rvhether it is of general specifications applicable to a Group or one with special requirements that needs the particular qualities of one of the species.

Redwood Grad:ng School

The California Redwood Associatior-r grading school was held at Scotia on May 6,8, 13, 15 and 20 with classes in the Social Room of The Pacific I-umber Company. George Nelson, cl-rief inspector for the Association, u'as in charge.

This rvas the seventh in a series of redrvood grading schools giver-r bv the Association. The instrttction stressed kno'n'ledge cf grading rule provisions. Sample boards and gestion periods ga\re an opportunity of actually translating the rules into usable knorvledge. -\t the final session, tl-rere was a test .i'hich consisted of the actual grading of selected samples.

No additronal schools r,vill be helcl until late summer.

They are in'troducing a new line of "Tropic blox." a perfect 16" square of Philippine Mahogany u'ith beveled face edge for use in parquet r,r'all paneling.
