Richardson Mill and Lumber Co., Pico, Calif., has opened a new hardware store and lumberyard at 1010 E. Imperial Highway in La Habra, Calif. The firm was started in 1940 at 9613 E. Whittier Blvd. by Owner John E. Richardson as a cabinet shop but the Pico location was later extended to include lumber and'hardware (CLM, 6/15/55'). The mill was shut down three years during WWII while its owner served in the infantry overseas, but it was reopened and now employs 20 men in the cabinet and millwork end. The Pico yard also has one of the largest stocks of builders' hardware in the area. John Richardson has been president of the Pico Chamber of Commerce the past two years and his employes have also always taken a large interest in community affairs.

Mr. Richardson said the same community interest will be taken in booming La Habra with the start of the new yard last month. In the second location with him are Wendell Stoltz and Lewis George.
