Phil Bailey To Meet \fith Dcalers

Philip Bailey, president of the West Coast Stained Shingle Company, Seattle ,is spending the better part of this month meeting with lumber dealers in the Northern California area.

Group meetings, at rvhich Mr. Bailey will outline the company's new sales promotion plans and dealer helps, have already been scheduled in Oakland, Stockton, Fresno and San Jose-according to Holmes Pooser, factory representative, who is accompanying Mr. Bailey.

"It is gratifying to note the large increase in interest by the lumber dealers in recommending our pre-stained Red Cedar shingles and shakes for California homes," said Mr. Bailey. "ft is our belief that a large contributing factor to that end has been our policy of selling only through established retail lumber dealer outlets," continued Mr. Bailey.

The West Coast Stained Shingle Cornpany, largest manufacturer of pre-stained shingles and shakes in the United States, distributes its products through the California Builders Supply Co., in Northern California, and Simpson Industries, Inc., in the Southern California area.
