Feor of Federql Control Voiced
A call for prompt industry action to head ofr possible federal domination of commodity standards and building codes hag been rounded by Mortimer B. Doyle of the National Forest Products Association. Doyle proposed creation of a "highJevel industry group" to seek greater "cohesiveness and uniformity" in both the code and standards fields.
Doyle thus joined other basic materials spokesmen in voicing opposition to controversial proposals by a Commerce Department advisory group (the LaQue Committee) which recommended: (l) establishment of a new federally-chartered institute to "coordinate" private standards activities in the U. S.o and (2) government promulgation of a national building code, to supercede the four regional model codes.
'oWhen standard-making is placed largely under government control, the people involved, as honest and sincere as they are, are still exposed to political pressures and political decisions," Dofe stressed, adding: "The whole area of industrial, consumer and building standards is essentially a private industry responsibility. We have capable private standards organizations. We have the mechanisms to establish standards. We have component building code agencies."

Stumps Mqy Be Useful
Thousands of acres of old pine stumps in California and Oregon may turn out to be useful and valuable, says a University of California scientist.
The pitchy remains of old-growth ponderosa pine trees have good possibilities as sources of wood rosin, Dr. Arthur B. Anderson told members of the Forest Products Laboratory at a Richmond meeting.
The wood rosin industry is running out of southern pine stumps, the historical source of the material, and is looking around for new sources, he added. Anderson said there is growing need for a rosin source in the West, particularly for use in paper sizing.
Fast, regular ocean shipments by barge from Southern Oregon and the Columbia River direct to Southern California.
Now, over 5,000,000 feet of dimension lumber and studs monthly manufactured especially for Southern California construction needs.
Art Neth would appreciate an opportunity to tell you how you and your customers will benefit from using dependable D & R dimension and studs. You can reach him by calling 972-1290 or Z8B-0Erl4.
