Cooperoting fully with the Nqtionol Wood Promolion Progrom ANDERSON, CATIFORNIA introduced Ewing Colvin of the Douglas Fir Plywood Association. Mr. Colvin followed up on the fllm "Better Homes in Jig Time," which was presented on Thursday. He ,stated that his association was particularly interested in this progTam of components and had much data available for dealers, particularly in the field of cabins. The cabin plans,.he said, can be had along with material lists at a very small cost to the dealer. fire presentation made by Mr. Ashley and the film itself were splendid. It is hoped that individual dealers who wish to improve their sales potential will avail themselvis of this program.

Harry D. Ashley, Pacific Building Products Division of Masonite Corporation, in San Francisco, California, was next introduced and he presented to the group the NRLDA Sales Maker tr'ilm, which described in detail the program by which dealers may caxry on sales programs in their own yards with the tools being furnished by hakers of building materials.

These splenditt films are professionally made and are gone over by committees of lumbermen before they are released to the dealers. Last year U, S. Gypsum came out with Seminar No. 1, "People Are Customers," and on this program the Masonite Corporation presented Seminar No. 2, .,Selling the Whole Package."

Eidward H. Libbey, secretary of National Retail Lumber Dealers Association since 1942, was then introduced. Mr. Libbey has 'done a wonderful job for the National organization, as well as going out of his way in many cases to help Arizona dealers .in their particular problems. He gave a very trne talk on "What Your National Association Means To You."

He described first and outlined some of the program to be put on at the National Exposition in San Francisco, November 13 to 16, and told of the clinics related to dealer problems which will be held.

He also told something ol the more than 800 exhibltors who wlll be tlispfagng their products in the west for tho ffrst tlme.

Among other things, he pointed out that there would be a wood sehoolhouse built of components on exhibition and that the general public, as well a,s the dealers, would be allowed to see it.

Next he pointed out to the membership some of the contacts that our industry needs in Washington. Not only is the National constantly wgtching and alert to National leg'islation (he paid tribute to the Arizona members on this committee who have done such a splendid job), but also contacts with FTIA, the Treasury Department, Bureau of Internal Revenue, Commerce Department, the Census Bureau, Small Business Bureau, the War Department, and other ag:encies who award contracts in our various states; also the Labor Department, Wage and House Division.

AII of thoee are constantly belng contacted anrl word is belng sent out to the a,ffliateil assoclatlons on changes which are pertinent to the doalers.

Through the Dealer Operating Guide, the National Association has done a splendid job in furnishing factual information to the dealers on products. Through the Labor Letters, they have been informed on the latest developments under the GriffithLandrum Act. At the National level there are committees working with manufacturers, and carriers are developing new programs of material handling.

IIo potnted out pertlcularly that Arlzona had pa,ved tho way ln gettlng a r€ductlon ln frelght rates anrd that thts progx&m has now spread natlon-wlde and he made m€ntlon of the fact that itray O'Malley ls trho chalrman of this commlttee.

In closing, he stated that while this was his first trip to Arizona, he hoped he would be able to come back another time, as he was thoroughly enjoying his contacts with the Arizona dealers.

The president then introduced Clark A. Johnson, Western district sales manager, Building Products Department of Kaiser Aluminum Chemical Corporation, in Oakland, California. Mr. Johnson announced that the third Seminar produced by his

Seminar No. 3, "Going Out After Business," was then presented. At the conclusion of the film, Mr. Johnson stated that lt was his understanding that other companies were now producing three more seminars so that any dealer wishing to set up a prog?am of education for his employes is now assured of continuity.

President Galbraitl then gave the dealers a short resume of the activities of our own association in the field of labor and reminded them that the better part of five months of last year was devoted to labor. He also advised tllem of the legislative program which clarifled the sales-tax matter regarding speculative builders.

He stated that ho felt that lf this legfulatlon had not passed, the contlngent ta.x ltablltty on dealers would be closo to half a million dollars as of right now.

He also reported that our Buyer's Guide will be of the press shortly after May 1 and that it had grown nine pages this year over last year. He stated that it now totals 31 pages with 36 individual ads, and that within the next year or two the Guide should double in size and prove of increasing' value to suppliers.

He also thanked Merritt Ilarris of Mallco, Jack Sulliva^n of Midway and Oracle Road Lumber Companies, and Knox Corbett of Corbett Lumber Companies in downtown Tucson and on Speedway for their excellent cooperation on getting additional advertisers in the Buyer's Guide.

The President then called on Walt Howard to show a five-minute film developed by our own Senator Barry Gold- water in which he g'ave in detail the danger of the secondary boycott.

Next on the program was Joe Ralston of the flrm of Ryley, Carlock & Ralston, who advised that the Bar Association was circulating petitions to have placed on the ballot a constitutional amendment which would revise our entire judicial system.

He stated that there has been no revision since the Constitution was adopted in 1912 and that our courts are now as much as two years behind in civil cases and that if they are appealed to the Supreme Court, you should live so long'.

He stated that there would be some 13 or 14 petitions circulated for various causes and purposes, but that only members of the legal profession would be circulating this measure revising the'judicial system, and he asked the dealers for their support.

The President then called for reports from the various committees. The Nominating committee recommended the belowlisted officers and directors for the year:
