TRADE youi* old watch ^ SAVE 25% The above highlights from our 1955 Annual Kcport indicate the importance o f the forest industry to the economic stability of communi ties throughout the Pacific Northwest. A big share of the money paid by W eyer haeuser Timber Company as payroll was spent by employees for homes, cars, food, taxes and other necessities and luxuries o f life. Money paid in taxes, both b y the C o m p a n y and employees, helped support schools, roads and ot her government sei vices. A similar distribu tion o? payroll and tax dollars, o f course, takes place all through the forest industry. Since this inuustry accounts for 160,000 jobs and an annual WEYERHAEUSER TIMBER COMPANY wo r k i n g in the Pacific Northwest to bui l d on selected new payroll of about $700,000,000 in Oregon and Washington, it is one of the basic stabilizing factors in the economy o f the region. Successful operation o f the forest industry on a long-term basis requires constant addition and improvement to plants, equipment, roads and tree farms. Such investments help assure con tinuous operation and steady payrolls. In 1955, Weyerhaeuser Tim ber Company sales were $316,732,545— a 21% increase over the previous year. N et income to shareholders was $1.98 per share of which about half was retained in the business to provide for expansion and additional working capital. a p e r ma n e n t forest i ndust r y 1.1...
