Hood Plant Faces Temporary Work Shut-down Completing a week of ad verse publicity, because of the apprehension of the original prom oters of the Mt. Hood Hardboard and Plywood Coop, the plant has tem porarily sus pended operation. The News office contacted Pres. Elmer Hines of Portland who stated that contrary to general gossip, the plant is not in the process of liquidation, but because of the present dis parity between the price of logs and veneer, it was econom ical ly necessary to suspend opera tions for a short time. All members will be contacted directly and given a report on the Coop’s activities. The attitude of some local stockholders is that the present m anagem ent of the Cooperative seems to fall into the pattern of practices used by preceding boards in that the inside busi ness m anipulations have not been made known to sharehold ers, nor have they been allowed to listen in on director’s m eet ings It is reported the board of directors did not welcome a com m ittee from the plant who wished to discuss problem s of operation, but w ere given a brief and unwelcome hearing after a considerable wait. The com m ittee was not hap py w ith the attitude of the board, since their intentions as experienced operating personnel was tow ard seeking a satisfac tory solution of the Coop’s pro blems.
