A motion presented by E. Donald Sterner, chairman of the By-Laws committee, setting January 1 as the date for newly elected officers to take offrce, was approved by the Board.
Everett B. Wilson, director of public relations, said that from all indications the industrv's public relations are in a healthy cond.ition, probably beiause the host of new postwar employes in the industry have gained experience and information about the products they sell and because dealers have been expanding the lines they carry and the services.they offer, thus doing a better job of meeting consumer neeos.
He said that better sales training and better merchan- dising would do much to keep the industry in good standing with the public.
Future merchandising and public relations programs, he said, would include a "More House for Your Money" program, a kit to help dealers cash in on the efforts of the H-oTe Jqrqroygment Council, and further promotion of NRLDA Display Panels.
He urged a start on merchandising research to develop facts that would help dealers get a larger share of consume? expenditures.

Nursery to Boost Timber EconomY
A step forward in expanding California's timber economy oc.ur.ed^ recently at Shaver Lake, in the High Sierras, when
Southern California Edison Clo. completed its new nursery for the growing of forest seedlingp. Production of 20,000 seedlings a year is plinned. Planting will be done on brush-covered areas in the power company's 16,760-acre water and timber-producing Tree Farm.
Said James F. Davenport, executive vice president of the company: "By growing our own tree seedl ngs near the planting lite, we aniicipate better survival. We can also conduct caiefully controlled experiments, determining best spacing, ideal time of- year, and best method of root-pruning for maximum survival and growth of the transplanted seedlings."
As another plus value, sugar pine seedlings can be grown and planted without fear of introducing blister rust into the area.- Sugar pine is a superior timber producer in the Sierras, but highly vulnerable to the fatal blister rust.
First planting on the companv's Tree Farm o.f -seedlings grown in the new nursery will be in the spring of 1959.
