Frank B. Connolly spoke on the Philippine Mahogany situation pointing cut that the demand and supply had completely reversed themselves from a year ago. He stressed present heavy demand and dr.opping production which had resulted in an acute shortage of Philippine Mahogany for distribution in this country

Jack Davidson inquired whether Japanese produced plywood was being imported. It developed that some Japanese plywood was being brought into the country but these shipments fell under the category to date of sample shipments only.

Hamilton von Breton announced that another Inspection School would be sponsored this year by the Industrial Lumbermen's Club of Southern California. As ex-president of the Club, he also reported on the Club's activities last year.

A motion was carried instructing the president to write a letter to Virgil Leach, requesting that he arrang.e to put on the agenda of the National Wholesale Hardwood Dis- tribution Yard Association a recommendation that the responsibilitiy for kiln drying should be for the account of the mills rather than the buyer.

Tuesday Session

The annual election of officers for the coming year was held.

Frank Connolly reported at some length upon the plans being prepared by the Procurement Office of the Army Engineers in St. Louis for the control of the hdrdwood lumber industry in the event of the present cold war becoming a hot war. He recommended to those members who had not already read it, an article in the June 1, 1950 issue of the Southern Lumberman on this important subject.

Among the highlights of the social activities of the convention was the ski lift ride to the top of 8000-foot Mount Baldy. Two luncheons were held for the ladies, one at Trail Creek Cabin, the other on the Terrace of the Lodge. From the hotly contested struggle for the golf trophy, Bobbie Byrne emerged the victor. Bob Kahn presented a badge of distinction to "Bud" Radditz for bravado beyond the call of duty in recognition of his efforts on the skating rink, and Harriett Cooper nominated Larry Culter as the most unfortunate fisherman of the year. Mable Kahn drew the door prize.

The convention was climaxed on the last evening with a banquet at Trail Creek Cabin. Retiring president Bruce Mclean made a short talk after which the group enjoyed dancing.
