\\rashington, D.C., October 28, 1947._"The spotlight of public interest,is still focused on the lumber irrdustrv ancl its productive capacity," Richard A. Colgan, Jr., executive vice president of the National Lumber Manu{acturers Asso'ciation, said today in announcing plans for the annuatr meeting of the association's stockholders and board of directors.

Scheduled for the Palmer House, Chicago, November 1620, the meeting rvill include annual election of officers and' discussion of both immediate and long-range problems affccting the lumber manufacturing industry.

Adoption of a legislative policy statement expressing the association's stand on major economic issues is on the agenda for the meeting. Committees to meet include the Hardwood Research Committee, Forest Conservation Committee, Committee on Products and Research, and Committee on Building Codes and Trade Promotion.

The ne'ir'1y-formed comrnittee on Intra-Industry Relations, an outgrou'th of the American l-umber Congress, rvill hold its first meeting on November 17. Similar committees representing lumber rvholesalers, lumber retailers, and commission salesmen have been formed to meet together for the furtherance of good relations among all branches of the industry.

Aithough the man-sized job of supplying the nation's construction Drogram and other types of consumers rvith sufficient lumber is the best-publicized problem confronting the industry, the meetings u'ill consider, as rvell, such long range objectives as continning improvement in the timber supply, and expanding research programs aimed at greater trtilization of vi.ood, in both traditional and nert tlses.
