Mr. Miller continues, oolt is about time the consumer got a break. Whenever changes are proposed-in any industryinvariably the claim is made that they benefit the consumer; but somehow, in the long run, he always seems to have to pay more."

W'hile many within the lumber industry and those who use its products professionally are of the opinion the forthcoming meeting of ALSC is for the purpose of enlight- 'ening the industry on the whys and wherefores of such changes, indications are that efiorts will be made to push through a vote to adopt the measures. If proof of this were needed, W'estern Pine Association has al'

6-819l ready announced (as the first avowed sponsor of the changes) that it plans to put the changes into efiect January 1, 1963 ! lf we con't find it . . we'll moke it

Aside from the retail and wholesale lumber dealers who will be afiected by this change, many others are involved such as Architects, Engineers, Contractors, etc. They, too, have a strong voice in approving or vetoing the proposals, as they are all represented on the American Lumber Standards Committee.

Accordingly, everyone within the lumber industry as well as those who use and specify its products are urged to write Mr. J. H. Carr, Secretary, ALSC, 2I3B P Street, N.W., Washington 7, D. C.
