Portland - This month's
California and Arizona busi
ness has been a lifesaver to
Oregon mills, according to
Crow's Lumber Market News
Service. Despite rumbles that
California demand has lost
some zip, there has been
enough to keep green Doug
las fir dimension and board
prices strong at the mill level,
with an upward tendency.
Thus the market has . been
bolstered at a time when it
otherwise would have been
sagging due to storms and
cold weather in large mid-
western and eastern , areas.
Texas has been fairly active.
There has been some de
mand from those regions, and
the trickle of orders from the
midwest appears to be grow
ing somewhat this week. Kiln
dried fir dimension is doing
the best in the Middle West,
Crow's said, with prices, mov
ing up.
Twelve-inch No. 3 com
mon Ponderosa pine boards
have gained a couple of dol
lars in price, while 8-inch
and 12-inch No. 4 boards are
firmer. There has been no
appreciable change in other
common grades, or in selects.
Dry white fir dimension has
added some price stature,
while green fir and larch is
moving better, though not so
active as green Douglas fir.
Mamie Planning
Trip To Arizona
Washington-IUPD-Mamie Eis
enhower plans to return to
the exclusive Maine Chance
beauty-health ranch in Phoe
nix, Ariz., where she lost five
pounds last year. j
A White House spokesman ;
said the First Lady planned
to go to the plush resort by '
train with her sister, Mrs. G. !
Gordon Moore, who also ac- i
companied her in 1958.
It was not announced how
long Mrs.Eisenhower planned
to stay or just when she would
go to the resort which is
owned by cosmetic executive
Elizabeth Arden. The ranch
charges its wealthy clients
$600 a week.
Mrs. Eisenhower's last trip
to Maine Chance created a
stir in some quarters because
President Eisenhower took
her there in the presidential
plane Columbine II on his way
