Dear Mr. Cutler,
I read the article entitled, "A Builder Sounds Off," on page 16 in the August issue of your fine publication with a great deal of interest.
I would like to request your permission to reproduce this in our association publication, The Lumber Merchant.
This was a very blunt talk but one that contained much that we have been trying to get across to our dealers here in Nebraska.
We would, of course, give your publication full credit for the article.
I have enclosed a self-ad- dressed stamped envelope and would appreciate your reply as soon as possible. Thank you for your consideration.
Yours very tr-uly,
B. F. Muscheites Editor

Dear Sirs,
We really got a kick out of your "Footsies" cartoons in your last issue. Your cartoonist must have been in the lumber business himself. He sure seems to know what goes on.
Keep'em coming.

U.5. Plywood Lifetime Siding
United States Plywood Corporation has announced that its Weldwood prefinished plywood siding sur{aced with polyvinyl fluoride film, is now guaranteed for the life of the building on which it is installed against cracking, chipping, crazing, blistering, flaking or peeling.
'Ihe new guarantee, "the strongest in the building materials industry," according to U.S. Plywood president Gene C. Brewer, makes possible the name change from PF15 to Weldwootl PF-L siding. PF-15 siding, surfaced with DuPont's Tedlar film, originally carried a l5-year guarantee.
"Our confidence in this unprecedented guarantee stems from a number of factors, including our experienr:e in the field since this prefinishsd -siding was introduced in 1962; tests dating back to Nlarch 31, 1943 when thc first Tcrllur film rnas erposed to the element-s; and tletailed laboratory tests," Brewer said.
U.S. PlyH,ood's guarantee covers PF-L siding for the life of the house, continuing in full force throughout that period however long it mav be. The guarantee is Irattsferable when the building is sold.
"There is no pro-rating involved in this guarantee-in sharp contrast to the socalled 'lifetime' guarantees ofiered by other manufacturers," said Brewer.
