I've heard several favorable comments regarding your handling of the Sierra Club film story. I'm delighted that the publication saw fit to join the battle against this prejudiced film. If you think itrs bad read- ing the script, you'll boil when you see the movie itself.

The industry is continuing to try and find ways to have this film withdrawn from circulationBest regards, Dave Ohman American

Sconning Device Licensed

Western Wood Products Association recently signed an agreement giving the Black Clawson Co. exclusive rights to manufacture and sell a scanner which will automatically assess the quality of any given piece of lumber, and automatically trigger other machinery for cutting and sorting lumber products.

The new piece of equipment will detect flaws, knots, color variations, and splits, according to Black Clawson's President, Carl C. Landegger.

The scanner idea was originally fostered several years ago by Western Pine Assn.
