Western-California Lumber Company, 7125 Firest<.rne Blvd., Downey, California, known as "Western-Cal" is the culmination of years of effort by two well known and experienced lumbermen. E.

During the period he r.vas an offrcer of the concerll, he operated the company owned mills in Oregon. He is well informed as to the needs of Southern California lumber users and dealers.
"Ernie" Moss came to Southern California in l92l following a successful career in the lumber business. in Iowa and Idaho. His experience in the retail phase of lumber sales qualifies him to speak the language of the retail dealer, as he worked in retail selling :until 1947, when he became associated with Erik Flamer, rvholesale lumberman of Long Beach. California.
Western-Caiifornia will engage in wholesale to lumber dealers only and they stock a complete inventory of Douglas Fir and Redwood, uppers and lowers-with the upper grades of Redwood dry. The new telephone numbers for the firm are TOpaz 9-5212 and TOpaz 9-1213.
