Lumber Deqlers Resecrrch Council Bulletin Plugs [u-Re-Co House

The Lumber Dealers Research Council, 'rvith the first issue of Lu-Re-Co News Items, is instituting a ne\'v service to the membership and to franchised Lu-Re-Co dealers across the nation. This ne'lvs service will be on a monthly basis, and rvill carry experiences of other dealers.

The Lumber Dealers Research Council has engaged the services of nationally known architects, L. Morgan Yost, George Fred Keck, and Bertram Weber of Chicago, to design three homes using the Lu-Re-Co system of construction. Working drar,vings will be made available in time for planning the 1956 building season. It also has provided a grant to the Small Homes Council of the University of Illiniois to study the problems of panelized interior partitions. The purpose of this study is to add one more component of a house that can be pre-assembled in the lumber dealer's yard, hauled to the site, and erected with a minimurn of site labor and time. This study is in keeping with the trend of home construction, as well as the thinking of a large number of lumber dealers. Panelized partitions will be demonstrated for the first time to the lumber dealers at the National Retail Lumber Dealers Exposition in Cleveland October 11th-14th.

Show House No. 14, 'ivhich is made possible by the cooperation of National Plan Service, the Lumber Dealers Research Council. National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, Show House, and a group of ten products advertisers. rvill be a Lu-Re-Co home. This color spread will appear in the October 8 issue of The Saturday Evening Post and in the November issue of Living for Young Homemakers.

Regardless of ivhere you travel, there is a Lu-Re-Co deaier not too far arvay. All have different ideas and builtl different types of designs and structures, but all are Lu-ReCo, for it pays to package merchandise. This leads a1l the way from Cortez, Colorado, u'here Basil Slavens is providing housing for the Ute Mountain Tribe, to Denver, rvhere Bill Barr is building and selling cute mountain cabins; to Tommy Thompson in Champaign, Illinois, who is sprouting houses in an old asparagus patch; to DeForest Venter in New Haven, Conn., who has a very lush development r.vith half acre iots; to Cam Limoges in Lewiston, Maine, rvith his large industrial warehouses and shops, as rvell as homes. Ali of these men har.e one thing in common-rvorking to provide better housing and facilities at lorver cost.
