This represents the amount paid for additions to plants,
equipment and roads. In addition to local purchases, this
expenditure also cheated many new jobs. For example,
new pulping facilities went into operation last year, as
did a plant to manufacture particle board.

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

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.
