World Power Conference Room at \(ashington Used Nu-Wood

On September 7th three thousand dreamers assembled in Washington to discuss one strong, solid word-power. These three thousand were delegates to the Third World Power Conference and were the picked representatives of fifty-two nations. Quoting from the Washington Post of Sunday, Sept. 6th, "their aim is to esta'blish a world basis for everything bearing on power, from conserving basic fuels that are used in the production of power to the relationship of Government, utilities and consumers." Dr. William Durant, prominent California scientist, was chairman of the Third World Power Conference.

Needless to say, a group of this size required a huge room. Even in our nation's capitol there was no ballroom large enough to feed the entire group; so the planners reconstructed the Union Station at Washington for the purpose. The waiting room has a clear width oL lfr feet and is 2L9 feet long with a 96-foot ceiling. Converting this waiting room into a usable banquet hall for the huge crowd required the use of vast quantities of materials. It was probably the largest banquet hall ever provided, and a material of considerable utility was necessary.

Nu-Wood Board made by the Wood Conversion Company of Saint Paul, Minnesota, was selected by the group of planners as being the most suitable product for the purpose.

The accompanying photograph shows how Nu-Wood helped to serve dinner to three thousand of the world'.s foremost.
