"Our Committee was appointed immediately after the 1962 storm to save the wood" beat the beetles and reduce the fire hazard. Ve are extremely proud of the splendid cooperation exhibited in the whole salvage job-biggest in American forest history. Everyone has been magnificient," Hagenstein said.

Comparing the timber salvage job after the big 195I Oregon' Washington wind with the Columbus Day cleanup, Hagenstein said we've accomplished as much in 20 months this time as we did then in 5 years.

Hagenstein predicted that if the salvage continued at the present rate, the bulk of the l2.B billion feet of concentrated blowdown would be out of the woods by 1965. The 4.2 billion feet of scat' tered blowdown is another matter. Its removal largely depends on accessibility and much of it will never be recovered, he said.

Underloyment ldentiiy Asked

The Board of Directors of the National Particleboard Association has voted to ask all member companies which manufacture floor underlayment to face-identify their panels with a company stamp.

The recommendation was made following a request from the W'estern Floor Covering Association that some form of face-identification be adopted. The W'FCA said this would help them to know when they are working with underlayment materials which are guaranteed by the manufacturer.

Members of the National Particleboard Association account for some 80 percent of the mat-formed wood particleboard production in the United States. All member companies ofier written guarantees for their products.

Two types of guarantees are ofiered. One provides for refund of the full purchase price of the underlayment up to one year after it has been installed. The other for either refund of the full cost of the installation (including labor), the underlayment, adhesive and floor covering afiected by a failure, or repair of the installation without cost.

In both cases, installation must be done according to manufacturer's instructions which are written on the warranties.

The face-stamping resolution was adopted unanimously by the NPA board.
