United Lumber Compony Buys Thot Enterprising Tqhoe Yqrd

Change in ownership of a major South Tahoe business firm is announced with the sale of all stock in the Nevada Lumber Company of Tahoe Valley, Calif., to the United Lumber Company of Modesto, effective September 1. The new owners, headed by President John Martin, operate 28 lumber yards in the San Joaquin Valley. United Lumber is a subsidiary of the Winton Lumber Company of Minneapolis, Minn.

Outwardly, the change in ownership will be little noticed. No changes in personnel or policies are contemplated, and Nevada Lumber Company will continue to operate under the active management of Harold Dayton and F. K. (Speck) Rahbeck, who have seen Nevada Lumber Company grow considerably during the 11 years they have been in business at the "Y" on Highway 50 in Tahoe Valley.

They have been associated in the yard's management with R. M. (Roy) Cross of Reno, well-known western Nevada and Sierra Nevada lumberman. Nevada Lumber Company has kept pace with Lake Tahoe growth and the firm recently completed its fourth expansion in just a little over a decade.

Commenting on the sale, Dealers Rahbeck and Dayton said that the move was in keeping with continuous expansion policies of the firm. They pointed, out that Nevada Lumber Company will be administered independently of other businesses owned by United Lumber and emphasized that no changes "either in personnel or policies" were planned.
