COOPERATIVE PUBLICITY So far as we have learned the lumber industry has not been as cooperative as other major industries in setting forth the good points of its use, in telling the public of its operations and in encouraging greater use of lumber products in home building. It is true that the West Coast Lumber association haa perform-1 ed what we consider a distinct service to the industry in setting forth the advantage« in the use of lumber in the building trade and have brought forth many interesting facts. On the other hand the lumber substitutes have been quick to obtain all the favorable comment possible on what ever at!vantage such ma- erials possesses and have sought to obtain publicity by every possible means. Whatever expansion the lumber industry has made, such ex pansion has been given little recognition by the industry itself. When improvements are made, when new mills are constructed, lumber operators more often assume the ‘‘hush ! hush! attitude One of a number of fascinating research laboratory demonstrations pre because it is generally assumed that stories of such expansions sented at the General Motors Exhibit on Treasure Island, la that which will bring about a false impression of prosperity and thus pos shows how the possible "telephone-television" of tomorrow may appear. sibly lead to labor troubles. Other industries, however, have not found it so and have taken newspaper and magazine articles as a means of acquainting the public not only with the problems of EARL E.
